Using for the first time

 Please stick the extra data plate for the appliance supplied with this documentation in the space provided in the "After sales service, data plate, guarantee" section of this booklet.

 Remove any protective wrapping and stickers.

Cleaning the hob for the first time

 Before using for the first time, clean the hob with a damp cloth only and then wipe dry.

Switching on the hob for the first time

When the hob is first connected, or after an interruption to the power supply, all of the indicators in the display will light up for approx. 1 second for testing. As soon as they go out, the hob is ready for use.

The metal components have a protective coating which may give off a slight smell when heated up for the first time.

The induction coils may also give off a slight smell for the first few hours of operation. This smell will be less noticeable with each subsequent use before dissipating completely.

The smell and any vapours given off do not indicate a faulty connection or appliance and they are not hazardous to health.

Please note that the heating up time on induction hobs is very much shorter than on conventional hobs.
