First Use of the Machine
•
Before using for the first time leave the hot plates switched on for 5 minutes and
then the oven with all the heating functions for 20 minutes in order to remove the
protective layer. This may lead to the development of small quantities of smoke.
Ensure sufficient ventilation.
•
Clean the accessories in the usual way by rinsing in cold water.
Electrical Connection
•
Ensure that the machine is switched off (all operating switches on "0").
•
Before inserting the mains plug into the socket check whether the voltage which
you intend to use corresponds to that of the machine. Please see the label on
the machine for details.
•
Only connect the machine to a correctly installed safety socket, 230 V/50 Hz.
Operation
Please note that you cannot use all the functions of the machine at the same time.
All possible combinations are listed below:
1. One or both hot plates (all levels)
2. Oven with upper and lower heat or separate
3. Grill
4. Oven (all positions) + small hot plate
5. Grill + small hot plate
Control Lamps
The lower control lamp is dimly lit when the machine is connected to the mains. It is
brightly lit if one hot plate or the oven/grill is in operation.
The upper control lamp is lit for oven or grill operation during the heating phase
(thermostat operation).
Use of the Hot Plates
•
Only use saucepans with a flat bottom in order to make optimum use of the
energy (see diagram 1).
•
The saucepan should never be smaller than the hot plate. Otherwise energy will
be wasted. In extreme cases the hot plate may deform.
•
The 7-position switch of the hot plates makes it possible to finely adjust the hea-
ting level to the cooking process (see diagram 2).
Use of the Oven
The oven may be operated with separate upper and lower heat (not regulated) and
with combined operation (regulable from 0 - 275 °C).
