Before using for the first time

General notes

When using the appliance for the first
time, or after a power-cut, a -, 1 or 2 will
appear in the cooking zone displays for
a few seconds. The appliance can be
used as soon as the displays go out.
This appliance operates using the
induction principle. This means that the
cooking zones will only work if they are
covered by a pan with a magnetic base
(see "Suitable pans").
A light humming or clicking sound may
be audible when the appliance is
switched on. This is quite normal with
induction heat.
Please stick the extra data plate for
your appliance supplied with this
documentation in the space provided at
the end of the instruction book.
Keep these instructions in a safe place
for reference, and pass them on to any
future user.

Cleaning and heating up for
the first time
Before using for the first time, clean the
appliance with a damp cloth only and
then wipe dry.
Do not use washing up liquid on the
ceramic surface as it can leave a
blue sheen which may be difficult to
remove.
Metal components have a protective
coating which may give off a slight
smell when the hob is heated up for the
first time. The smell and any vapours
will dissipate after a short time, and do
not indicate a faulty connection or
appliance.
