Before the first use of the appliance
Before using the appliance
remove all packaging,
including the advertising
labels and any protective
film.
When using the hob for the first
time:
1) place on all the plates a pan filled
with some water;
2) switch the plates on for about 10
minutes at “maximum” position until
water inside the pans boils;
3) then, turn the control knob to
“minumum” and allow the plates to
run for approximately 20 minutes;
4) open a window for ventilation.
During this time, the plates may
smoke a little and an unpleasant
odour may be emitted. This is
absolutely normal and it is
caused by residues of
manufacturing.
Once this operation is carried out,
let the plates to cool down, then clean
them with a soft cloth soaked in warm
water.
