Dear Customer, We thank you and congratulate you on granting us your preference, by purchasing one of our products. We are sure that this new appliance, manufactured with quality materials, will meet your requirements in the best possible way. The use of this new equipment is easy. However, we invite you to read this booklet carefully, before installing and using the appliance. This booklet gives the right information on the installation, use and maintenance, as well as useful advice.
wARNING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating). • For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used when it has been built in. • This appliance may be connected via a fused plug and switched socket.
CLEANING FOR THE FIRST TIME • Remove any protective foil and sticky labels. • Clean with a solution of washing up liquid in warm water, and dry with a soft cloth. Metal components have a protective coating which may give off a slight smell when heated up for the first time. The smell and any vapours will dissipate after a short time, and do not indicate a faulty connection or appliance. OPERATION Switching on and off To switch the Tepan plate on, turn the control clockwise.
OPERATION Tips Wipe the surface of the Tepan plate before each use with a damp cloth to remove any dust particles or other soiling which may have settled on it since it was last used. • Pre-heat the Tepan plate thoroughly for 8 -10 minutes at the power level that you are going to be using for cooking. • It is important to get the Tepan sufficiently hot before use, particularly when browning and sealing meat. If it is not hot enough, the meat will lose too much juice and become tough.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION • Fit the wall units and extractor hood before fitting the Tepan to avoid damaging the surface. • The veneer or laminate coatings of worktops (or adjacent kitchen units) must be treated with 100 °C heat-resistant adhesive which will not dissolve or distort. Any backmoulds must be of heat-resistant material. • This appliance may only be used in mobile installations such as ships, caravans, aircraft etc.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION Safety distances to the sides of the Tepan Ideally the appliance should be installed with plenty of space on either side. There may be a wall at the rear and a wall or a tall unit at one side. On the other side, however, no unit or divider should stand higher than the appliance. Due to the high temperatures radiated by the Tepan, it is essential that a minimum distance of 50 mm is maintained between the worktop cut-out and the back wall.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION Safety distance when installing the appliance near a wall with additional niche cladding There must be a minimum distance of 50 mm between the niche cladding and the worktop cut-out. This distance is only necessary for niche cladding made of wood or any other combustible material. For non-combustible materials (metal, ceramic tiles or similar), this dimension can be reduced by the thickness of the niche cladding material.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION Preparing the worktop • Make the worktop cut-out for one or more appliances as applicable. Remember to maintain a minimum safety distance from the back wall, as well as from any tall unit or side wall to the right or left of the Tepan. See «Safety instructions for installation». • Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable heat-resistant sealant to avoid swelling caused by moisture. The materials used must be resistant to high temperatures.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION Electrical connection • We recommend to connect the appliance with an outlet. In this way the technical assistance interventions could be more simple. • Make sure the outlet is available even after the appliance was collected. • If the connection is not made by an electrical outlet, contact an electrician who is familiar with the additional local codes and regulations issued by the utility area.
