Using your cooktop

First use
Before using the cooktop for the first time, you need to remove any protective coating that may
still be on the hotplates. After you've removed the protective coating, boil a saucepan of water
on each plate for about 10 minutes. There will be a distinctive smell and some light smoke visible
while this is happening. This is normal, but make sure your kitchen is well ventilated during this
process. The smell and smoke will disappear when the process is complete.
