BEFORE FIRST USE
BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE MAKE SURE THE MAINS CABLE IS
UNPLUGGED FROM THE SOCKET AND HEAT CONTROLLER IS IN THE ‘O’
POSITION.
Before first use cure the hot plates by turning the heat controller
to
the highest setting (position 5) for 5 minutes to burn off their protective
coating. Ensure the room is well ventilated. Switch the appliance off and
let it cool completely before wiping any residues from the hot plates.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1 Place cookware on the hot plate then switch the appliance on
by turning the heat controller
clockwise to desired position.
The indicator light
will glow while the hot plate is heating up.
2 Turn the heat controller
to the required position (1-lowest
temperature, 5-maximum temperature, OFF-switched off), to
achieve the desired temperature. The indicator light
will go
off when the set temperature is reached.
3 When not in use, ensure that the heat controller
is in the
OFF position and disconnected from the power outlet.
COOKWARE & UTENSILS
Use cookware with flat, heavy base to ensure good contact with the
hot plates. Always place the cookware centrally on the hot plates and
position the handles safely out of the way. Oversized pots which cover
both hot plates will overheat the hob and reduce its working life.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
1 Switch the appliance off, unplug the mains cable from the socket
and let the hot plates cool down completely.
2 Mop up any spillage as soon as possible and do not leave it to
harden. Wipe all surfaces with a damp cloth and a mild detergent.
3 Do not use harsh or abrasive detergents or scourers to avoid
scratching the surface.
10 SQ Professional Ltd may not be held liable for eventual damages
to persons, animals or objects caused by incorrect installation or
deriving from improper, erroneous or unreasonable use.
11 If a crack appears on the hot plate, switch off the power
supply immediately and do not use the appliance.
12 Do not use the hot plate near or under cupboards,
curtains or combustible materials.
13 The appliance is designed only for heating and cooking food and
must be used only when cookware is placed on the hot plates.
14 Do not leave the appliance unattended when heating oil.
15 The diameter of the cookware should be the same as the
diameter of the hot plate.
16 Do not touch the surface of the hot plate
when
the appliance is in use. The temperature of surface
may be high when the appliance is operating.
