responsibility for their safety or receive preliminary instructions relating to the operation of the appliance.

•Do not let children play with the appliance.

•The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.

Disposal

•When disposing of packaging material: observe local legislation so that the packaging may be reused.

•The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.

Practical Advice on Using the Electric Hot Plates

In order to avoid heat loss and damage to the hot plate, use cookware with a flat bottom the diameter of which is not less than that of the hot plate.

Setting	Setting
0	Off
1	Cooking vegetables, fish
2	Cooking patatoes (using steam) soups,
	chickpeas, beans.
3	Continuing the cooking of large quantities of
	food, minestrone.
4	For roasting (average)
5	For roasting (above average)
	---------
6	For browning and reaching a boil in a short
	time

! Before using the hot plates for the first time, you should heat them at maximum temperature for approximately 4 minutes, without any pans. During this initial stage, their protective coating hardens and reaches its maximum resistance.
