Put on all cooking zones a pan filled with
some water. Set the maximum position
and operate the appliance for approximate-

boils. After that, operate the appliance at
minimum position for 20 minutes. During
this period, an odour and smoke can oc-
cur. This is normal. Make sure that the air-
flow is sufficient.
After this operation, clean the appliance
with a soft cloth soaked in warm water.
