time it is necessary to eliminate any humidity which may have accumulated around the electrical
elements of the plate by operating the hotplate on its lowest setting for about 20 minutes.

• Never use a pan with a smaller diameter than of the hotplate.
• Ensure that the base of the pan is dry before placing it on the hotplate. While the hotplate is in
