Safety advise for using the appliance
WARNING: Hazard of injury and burns!
The casing and heating plate are getting hot during use and firstly stay hot after switch-off!

Thus, work with caution:

• We recommend using pot cloths and appropriate cooking cutlery!

• Do not use the appliance’s upper side as a depositing rack or working top as it will get hot when operating the appliance! As protection against fire, do generally not put objects made of paper, plastic, fabric, or other inflammable material on hot surfaces!

• Only use suitable pots or pans with sound, even bottom, and appropriate diameter (also fire-proof glass or chinaware). If the pot bottom is uneven or too small, you will waste energy. The heating plate and the pot bottom must always be clean and dry.

• Do not use cooking vessels made of plastic, inferior enamel, porcelain ·or aluminum foil.

• Attention! Hazard of fire! Fat and oil can ignite when overheated.
  Therefore, food containing fat and oil must be prepared under supervision only.

• Never splash cold water on the hot heating plate!

• Appliance and accessories must have cooled completely before cleaning or moving them!

• Some models are equipped with a cover, which can be detached for cleaning. Mind to shut this cover only when the unit is switched off and the heating plates have cooled completely.

• Observe the following when setting up the appliance:
  o Place the appliance on a heat-resistant, stable, and even surface (no varnished surfaces, no table cloths, etc.).
  o Place it beyond children’s reach.
  o Leave a sufficient ventilation distance to all sides of the appliance to avoid damage by heat or fat splatters and to grant an unobstructed area. Unhindered air supply has to be ensured.
  o Do not operate the appliance in the vicinity of sources of heat (oven, gas flame, etc.) or in explosive environments, where inflammable liquid or gases are located.
  Attention! Hazard of fire! This appliance is not qualified for the installation.

• Do not use the appliance as a space heater.

• For a safe switch-off pull the mains plug.

Operating the appliance

• Prior to initial use, heat each heating plate without pot for approx. 5 minutes at maximum setting.
  Thereby, the plate coating gets its optimal protection effect. Please do not be bothered by the slight formation of harmless smoke occurring for a short time.

• Only use pots and pans with appropriate diameters. If the pot bottom is uneven or too small, energy will be wasted.

• The temperature is power-controlled through a 7l-step switch. Depending on the chosen setting, the plate heats up with the corresponding power and maintains this temperature.

• The pilot lamp glows as long as the heating plate is switched on.

• The models THS 815 and THS 2015 are equipped with a 15-minute timer and have a reduced power of 800 / 1200 W respectively. This meets especially high safety requirements, e.g. in old people’s homes. When the pre-set time has passed, the timer turns off the appliance automatically. The time set before can always be changed even during operation by moving the timer clockwise or anti-clockwise.

• Turn off your appliance in time and use the energy stored in the heating plate for keeping your food warm.
