3. Power regulator, front plate
4. Power regulator, rear plate
Each cooking plate is equipped with a 7-position power regulator which allows power
regulation in several steps. A green pilot light for every cooking plate indicates that the
plate is on.
Cooking is started by turning the power regulator to position 6. When boiling starts, the
power is decreased as needed. Usually it is possible to use a small or medium power set-
ting.
Do not leave the cooking plate on without any load, because it then overheats, which con-
siderably decreases the service life of the plate. By turning the cooking plate off when not
needed, energy is saved and a cooler working environment is achieved.
If there are longer interruptions in the electricity distribution, all power regulators of the
range should be set to the 0 position. This should be done in order to prevent unexpected
start-up of the range when the electricity distribution is restored.
4.3 After use
4.3.1 Cleaning
Use of a water hose or pressure cleaning jet is strictly forbidden.
It is not allowed to wipe the undersides of cooking plates swung up to a cleaning position
with a wet sponge, cloth etc., because water flowing down the plate is absorbed into the
insulating material thus causing earth leakage.
