Hot plate
•
Always keep the hot plate clean. A dirty plate does not transfer heat properly.
•
Turn the hot plate on only after placing a dish on it, except when first used.
•
Avoid placing wet pans on the hot plate since moisture fosters corrosion.
•
Never sprinkle the overheated plate with cold water.
•
Turn the hot plate off a few minutes before the dish is cooked; the plate
accumulates heat and is still hot for some time after turning off.
•
Never use the hot plate for preparing foods wrapped in aluminium foil or in
plastic pans; never place on the hot plate any plastic trays, etc.
