Instructions for the user or fish. 5 Strong For roasts, steaks and large boiled joints. 6 Very strong To boil large amounts of water, to fry. WARNING When switching on the electric element for the first time, or if the electric element has not been used for a long time, to remove any humidity from the insulating material it should be dried out by placing the electric element on position 1 for 30 minutes.
Instructions for the user 10 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Never use a steam jet to clean the appliance. Before any intervention, disconnect the power supply of the device. 10.1 Cleaning Clean the cooking top regularly every time you use it, obviously after it has cooled. 10.1.1 Regular daily cleaning of the hob In order to clean and preserve the surface, always use specific products only, which do not contain abrasive substances or chlorinebased acid substances.
Instructions for the user 10.2 Cleaning of cooking hob components CAUTION: do not wash these components in a dishwasher. In normal use of the hob, the stainless steel burner caps and panstands tend to be burnished by the high temperature. Clean these parts using very fine abrasive sponges or similar commercial products. Then use a specific paste polish to restore the steel’s shine. Your local authorised after-sales technician is able to supply professional products for appliance cleaning and care.
