Electric Hot Plates
The hot plates vary in diameter and power: "normal" and
"fast". The latter can be identified by a red boss in the

The hot plate can be regulated by turning the
corresponding knob in the clockwise or counter-clockwise
direction to any one of the 6 different settings:
0 Off
1 Low

Practical Advice on Using the Electric Hot Plates
In order to avoid heat loss and damage to the hot plate,
use cookware with a flat bottom the diameter of which is
not less than that of the hot plate.
Before using the hot plates for the first time, you
should heat them at maximum temperature for
approximately 4 minutes, without any pans. During
this initial stage, their protective coating hardens and
reaches its maximum resistance.
