Electric Hotplates

To switch on a hotplate, turn the relevant control
knob to the required heat setting.
The control knob is numbered 0 – 6
0 – OFF
1 – Minimum
6 – Maximum.
Normal Hotplate
We recommend the plates are switched to
maximum (6) for a short while to boost the plate,
and then adjusted to the required setting.
Rapid Hotplate
The rapid hotplate indicated by a red spot, will
heat up more quickly than a normal plate.
Over a period of time the red spot may
disappear, this will not affect the performance
of the hotplate.
It is important to note that the hotplates
may smoke and produce a slightly unpleasant
odour when used for the first time. This is
quite normal and will disappear after some
time.
Do not put anything on the hob that is
liable to melt.
Suggestions for the correct setting of the plate are
given in the following table:
