Practical advice on using the electric

To avoid heat loss and damage to the hotplates use
pans with a flat base, whose diameter is no less
than that of the hotplate itself.

Before using the hotplates for the first time, you
should heat them at maximum temperature for
approximately 4 minutes, without placing any pans
on them. During this initial stage, their protective
coating hardens and reaches its maximum
resistance.
