Precautions for use

The following advice is intended to help you save energy and
prevent pan damage:
Use pans which are suitably sized for the hotplate. The
■
diameter of the base of the pan should match that of the
hotplate, and should not be smaller.
Use a pan with thick flat base.
■
Do not use damaged pans that do not sit on the hotplate in a
■
stable manner.
Place the pan in the centre of the hotplate. Otherwise it could
■
tip over.

Cleaning and maintenance

Any food which spills onto the hob must be cleaned off
immediately with a dishcloth.
The hotplates should be cleaned with soap and water when
they have cooled.
Dry the hob. Moisture may cause the hotplates to rust over
time. Wet hotplates should be dried quickly.
To protect the surface of the hotplates, treat them with oil or any
other protective product available on the market.

Stainless steel surfaces

Over time, bluish or yellowish stains may appear on the hob
and around the edges of the hotplates. Use stainless steel
cleaners.
It is recommended that the cleaning product available from our
Technical Assistance Service (code 311499) is used regularly.
Avoid using this type of product in areas with screen printed
indications. The indications could be erased.
Do not use abrasive cleaning products.
