Getting Started
Before first use
When your new ceramic cooktop has been professionally installed, follow a
few simple steps to prepare it for your first use.
• Most importantly, read this manual thoroughly to familiarise yourself with
the appliance. Pay particular attention to the safety instructions on the
previous pages.
• Wipe the cooktop surface with a damp cloth or sponge to remove any
dust that has accumulated during transport and storage. Dry thoroughly.
• To help eliminate any ‘new’ smell that exists and evaporate any humidity
that may have formed on the heating elements during transit, switch
on
one cooking zone at a time
and let it heat up for 5 minutes at the
maximum setting. Place a saucepan filled half full with cold water on each
zone as you burn it off.
Do not burn off more than one zone at a time.
Any odour or smoke can be disregarded safely; ensure good ventilation.
• See the next pages for switching on/off instructions.
NOTE:
The first few times the ceramic cooktop is used, it may give off an
acrid, burning smell. This is no cause for concern. The smell will
disappear completely with repeated use. Ensure good ventilation.
