To remove the new smell, switch the hotplates on to full power
for five minutes, one by one, without placing any pans on top.
Do not switch more than one hotplate on at a time. At this point

disappear over time.
Caution!
Do not operate the hotplates without placing pans on top,
except during this initial heating phase.

Setting 1: low power.

Note: It is recommended to start cooking on full power and
then to use intermediate power levels after a few minutes.
Switching off
Turn the control knob clockwise to the off setting.
