WARNING
•
Do not use commercial simmering aids as these can create excessive heat that can
damage the appliance
•
Do not leave hotplates on without a pan or an empty pan

When cooking foods with high sugar content, ensure that any spillage is removed
immediately to avoid damage to the cooktop surface.
HELPFUL HINTS

Always use the correct diameter pan, one that is the same or slightly larger than the
hotplate.
•
The bottom of the pan must be flat
•
Whenever possible keep the lid on the pan while cooking

Avoid over-spill of liquid by reducing the heat when boiling has occurred
CLEANING THE APPLIANCE

SOLID HOTPLATES – VSEC

The hotplates should be lightly greased with oil (using a soft cloth). This will ensure that the
surface remains clean and will also prevent formation of rust.
