SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Warning: The appliance and its accessible parts become hot during use. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements. Children less than 8 years of age shall be kept away unless continuously supervised.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system. You should not use steam cleaning devices to clean the appliance. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Ensure that children do not play with the appliance. Make sure that the power cords of other equipment do not touch any hot surfaces of the appliance. Plug of the power cord should be accessible after appliance has been installed. Do not install the appliance near the cooling equipment.
SAVING ENERGY Everybody who properly uses energy not only saves money but also consciously acts in aid of the natural environment. So let’s save electric energy by: ● Using proper cookware. Pots and pans with flat and thick bottoms will let you save up to one-third of electric energy. Remember about the lid as otherwise the consumption of energy quadruples! ● Matching cookware to the size of the hotplate. A cooking pot should never be smaller than the used hotplate.
UNPACKING The appliance is protected from damage during transportation by its packaging. After unpacking please dispose of the packing materials in a manner creating no risk to the environment. All materials used for packing are harmless to the natural environment, can be recycled in 100% and have been identified with appropriate symbol. Note! Packing materials (polyethylene bags, pieces of polystyrene etc.) should be kept away from children during unpacking.
DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE Electric cooker P*4ES11 1,2,3,4 - hotplates 5 - control knobs 6 - signalling diode Fig.1 Technical data - rated voltage 230 V, 50 Hz overall dimensions 580 x 510 x 45mm weight 10,9 kg The cooker is provided with: - hotplates - normal Ø 180 - 1500 W Ø 145 - 1000 W quick-heating Ø 145 - 1500 W - varies depending on the model.
INSTALLATION Making the worktop recess ● Worktop thickness should be 28 - 40 mm, while its width at least 600 mm. The worktop must be flat and level. Edge of the worktop near the wall must be sealed to prevent ingress of water or other liquids. ● There should be sufficient spacing around the opening, in particular, at least 50 mm distance to the wall and 60 mm distance to the front edge of worktop. ● Worktop must be made of materials, including veneer and adhesives, resistant to a temperature of 100°C.
INSTALLATION Installing the hob in worktop opening P*4E** ● Use four “A” brackets for 38 mm thick worktops. Fit the hob into worktop opening as shown on figure 2 and 3. To properly secure hob in 28 mm thick worktop, use four 15x15x50 mm wooden blocks in addition to “A” brackets. Fit the hob into worktop opening as shown on figure 4 and 5. ● Check if adhesive seal is properly applied to the hob‘s flange.
INSTALLATION Connecting the plate to the electrical system Note! The plate can be connected to the mains only by a qualified certified installer. Wilful adaptations or modifications to the electrical system are prohibited. Guidelines for the installer The plate is factory-set for three-phase alternating current power supply (400 V 3N~50 Hz). It may be adapted for one-phase current power supply (230 V) by adequate bridging on the connection strip, in accordance with the attached wiring diagram.
INSTALLATION Wiring diagram Important! Heating elements operate at 230V. Important! For each connection the protective conductor must be connected to the terminal marked .
OPERATION NOTE! Please read the contents of this Operating Manual carefully and observe its instructions. Information about your cooker is specified on the rating plate – according to the below example. Switching on the appliance: Turn the appropriate knob (5) to switch on the selected hotplate (1,2,3,4). The signalling diode (6) lights up and the heating power can now be adjusted by setting the knob to a desired position.
OPERATION Good pots save energy. The bottom of the appropriately selected cooking pot should be thick and flat and have approximately the same diameter as the used hotplate as only then the optimal transfer of heat can be achieved (Fig. 4). How is the energy lost? Fig. 5 A. The pot is too small for the selected hotplate. Fig. 5 B. The bottom of the pot is not flat (concave). Fig. 5 C. The lid has been put improperly.
OPERATION Knob setting Exemplary cooking activity 3 boiling, quick heating, frying ● roasting meat, fish 2 slow roasting or frying ● cooking soups and larger amounts of food 1 boiling potatoes ● stewing vegetables 0 switching off General comments to the use of hotplates. Depending on the type, the plate can be equipped with normal or quick-heating hotplates.
CLEANING AND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE Daily cleaning and proper maintenance have crucial impact on the durability of your plate. Switch off the cooker (set all the knobs to “0”) and allow it to cool down before cleaning. Wipe the cooker with a soft cloth using a bit of washing liquid. Never use abrasive or scrubbing cleaning agents. Hotplates ● Dirt (i.e.
