Solid plates (621 Kitchenaire) Red dot plates • Plates featuring a red dot in the centre are high speed, high wattage plates for increased performance • For your safety these plates are fitted with thermal limiters. Should a plate be accidentally switched on and left unattended, the limiter will reduce the power output of the plate and minimise the risk of overheating and the possibility of fire.
Spiral plates (620 Kitchenaire ) Spiral plate control knobs. • The plate will operate at any setting between minimum and maximum as depicted on the control knob. With a little experience you will soon find the ideal position for: • Gentle simmer to simmer. • Fast simmer to medium heat • Hot to maximum heat Spiral plate care. • Use pots with a base diameter slightly larger than the plate. This will ensure even heat distribution and prevent spillage from dripping onto and staining the plate.
Cleaning the oven • Switch off the electrical power supply before cleaning any part of the appliance. • Open the oven door and allow the oven to cool down. • For improved access, the shelf, roast pan and oven door may be removed. • Clean the oven with a damp, hot soapy cloth. Do not use a steam cleaner. • It may be necessary to soak burnt soils with a liquid cleaner to soften them before scrubbing them with a nylon brush or scouring sponge.
