Hot plates
䡲
Do not use pots and pan that are smaller than the hot plate, as this can cause the
outer zone of the hot plate to overheat. Over time, the hot plate will become dam-
aged and the chrome steel ring will become loose or break.
䡲
Frequent overboiling (especially if using pans that are too small) can cause pitting
corrosion in the outer zone of the hot plate.
Cleaning and maintenance
A
Allow the hot plates to cool down before cleaning. Wipe clean with a slightly
damp cloth. Remove food soiling with fine wire wool.
A
Once to twice per week use a standard hot plate cleaner to restore and protect
the hot plates.
There is a rust-free chrome steel ring around the hot plates to protect the edge.
Over time, the heat will cause the ring to become discoloured, turning yellow.
Discolouration is normal and cannot be removed by cleaning.
