USE

SERVICING

WARNINGS:

When the plate is switched on for the first time, or if it has remained unused for a long period, it should be dried for 30 minutes on switch position n° 1. This will eliminate any moisture that may have been absorbed by the insulating material.

To correctly use the appliance, remember:

- To place a pan on the plate before switching this on.

- To always use pans with flat and very thick bottoms (see fig. 3).

- To never use pans that are smaller than the plate diameters.

- To dry the bottom of the pan before placing it on the plate.

- Correctly preserve the plate after use by treating it with special products, easily available on the

market. This will keep the surface of the plate clean and bright. The operation will also prevent

the formation of rust. Never allow children to play near the appliance when using the plates. Check

that the pan handles are positioned correctly. The user should never leave the appliance

unattended when cooking with easily inflammable oil and fat.

Always disconnect the appliance from the electricity main before proceeding with any servicing operation.

8)REPLACING THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS

For access to the various parts, remove the hotplate from the top of the cabinet. Then overturn it, unscrew screw “Z” and remove under part. (see fig. 9).

After these actions is possible to work on the plates, commutators, clamps and input cable.

N.B. In case of substitution of the input cable, the installer must keep the “earth”

conductor longer than “live” ones, and must respect the cautions in paragraph “Electrical connection”.

To reassemble the appliance repeat the inverse process.

9)TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS

To facilitate the job of the installer we present a scheme with the characteristics of the components.

- The plates will remain hot for a long period of time even after use. Never touch them with the hands

or other objects in order to prevent scorching.

- If the appliance has a glass lid, this could shatter when the cooker becomes hot. Always

disconnect all the plates before closing the lid.

- Immediately disconnect the appliance from the electricity main as soon as cracks are noted on

the surfaces of the plates.
