WARNING:
•
When operating the hotplate for the
first time or whenever it has not been
used for a prolonged period of time, it
is necessary to eliminate any humidity
which may have accumulated around
the electrical elements of the plate. To
do this, operate the hotplate on its
lowest setting for about 20 minutes.
•
Never operate a hotplate without pans
on.
•
Only use flat-bottomed pans with thick
bases.
•
Make sure the bottom of the pan is dry
before placing it on a hotplate
•
When a hotplate is in operation, make
sure that the pan is centered correctly
on it.
•
Never use a pan with a smaller or larger
diameter than that of the hotplate as this
will waste energy.
