Before using for the first time
24
Cleaning the rangetop for the
first time
Remove any protective foil and stick-
ers.
Using a soft sponge, clean all remov-
able burner parts with a solution of
warm water and a small amount of
liquid dish soap. Dry the parts thor-
oughly after cleaning and reassemble
the burners (see "Cleaning and
care").
Remove the grilling grate and, using a
soft sponge, clean it with a solution
of warm water and a small amount of
dishwashing liquid. Dry it thoroughly
after cleaning.
The griddle plate is oiled for protec-
tion against corrosion. Clean the grid-
dle plate with a soft sponge, a small
amount of dishwashing liquid, and
warm water, and dry it.
Before first use, wipe down the appli-
ance with a damp cloth and dry it.
Metal components are protected by a
conditioning agent. Smells and vapor
may occur when the appliance is used
for the first time.
The smell and any vapors do not indi-
cate a faulty connection or a defective
appliance and are not harmful to your
health.
Seasoning the griddle plate
You must season the griddle plate be-
fore cooking food on it the first time.
This process prevents food from stick-
ing and protects the surface from
moisture.
Set the griddle plate on "High" for
30minutes.
Turn off the griddle plate after 30min-
utes and let it cool down.
During heating, the griddle plate con-
stantly changes color. The discol-
oration may become more intensive
over time. The properties of the grid-
dle plate, however, are not impaired in
this manner.
Pour 1teaspoon of vegetable oil that
can be heated to a high temperature
in the middle of the cooled griddle
plate and distribute it with a paper
towel, leaving out the corners of the
plate.
Do not use too much oil. Excess oil
leaves a rubbery substance on the
plate that has to be removed.
Remove any excess oil with a paper
towel.
Heat the griddle plate on "High" until
it starts to smoke.
Turn off the griddle plate.
When the griddle plate has cooled
down to a safe temperature, wash off
the excess oil.
Repeat the process once the griddle
plate has cooled down completely.
