ELECTRIC PLATES

The electric plate is treated with protective paint. The first time you use it, we recommend that you turn the knob (Fig. 1) onto
position 6 and leave it on for approximately 5 minutes, then follow the instructions.
The optimum kind of pan has a totally flat bottom so that it adheres to the surface of the plate completely. This permits
excellent heat transfer from the plate to the pan. We recommend using containers with a similar or greater diameter than that
of the electric plate. Do not place any kind of kitchenware or lids on the plates.
When the plate is on and has no pan on it or has an unsuitable one (e.g., small diameter), a thermostat device prevents it from
overheating by limiting the power.
IMPORTANT NOTES
When switching on the first time or anyhow after a lengthy period when it has not been used, in order to eliminate any
moisture that has been absorbed, it is necessary to dry it out by switching on the plate for 30 minutes with the switch on
position 1.
- Dry the bottom of the pan before putting it on the plate.
- Switch on the plate only after putting the pan on it.

USING THE ELECTRIC PLATES

The control knob (Fig. 1) subdivided into seven positions controls the electric plate and regulates the power.
To switch on the plate, turn the knob from "0" onto the required position (see table below), the green indicator light
automatically comes on to show it is in operation.

USING THE VENTILATED OVEN

IMPORTANT:
The first time you use the oven, operate it empty and on full power for approximately 1 hour, preferably leaving the kitchen
windows open. When the oven is switched on for the first time, it gives off bad smells due to production residues such as
grease, oil and resin.
