SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
●
Before using the ceramic plate for the first time read the Operating Manual carefully
as thus you can ensure safe operation and avoid damage to the plate.
● If the ceramic plate is operated near a radio, TV set or other emitting device, please check
whether the touch panel works correctly.
● The ceramic plate should be installed by a qualified electrician.
● Do not install the plate near refrigerating devices.
● The furniture the plate is fitted in should be resistant to temperatures up to 100 ºC. The re
-
quirement applies to the veneers, edges, plastic surfaces, glues and varnishes.
● The plate can be used only after it has been fitted into furniture, as only thus you will be
protected from accidental contact with live components.
● Electric appliances can be repaired only by qualified specialists. Unprofessional repairs may
compromise the safety of the appliance.
● The appliance is disconnected from the mains only when the mains plug is pulled out from
the socket or when the fuse has been switched off.
●
Never allow children to remain unattended near the cooktop nor to play with the control panel.
● When switched on the hotplates quickly become hot. To avoid unnecessary power consump
-
tion, switch them on only after putting a cooking pot.
● Residual temperature indicator built-in into the electronic system tells you whether the hotplate
is still switched on and whether it is still hot.
● Should there be a power failure, all the settings and indications will be cancelled. Please be
careful when the power supply is restored as hotplates which have been hot before power
failure will no longer be controlled by the indicator.
● If there is a mains socket located near the hotplate, please make sure that the supply cord
does not touch the hot places.
● Do not leave the plate unattended when cooking on fats and oils as they create fire hazard.
● Do not use plastic pots or containers made from aluminium foil as they melt in high tempera
-
tures and may damage the ceramic plate.
