The cooker is built for a three-phase supply and 7.5kW in total, and the manual explains how to bridge the connection box for a single-phase 220–240V supply. It is supplied without a cable, so an electrician should confirm the right connection and cable for your switchboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor first use, wash the oven fittings with warm soapy water, ventilate the room and heat the empty oven at 250°C for about 30 minutes, with each hotplate also heated for about 4 minutes without a pan. Some smoke and a manufacturing odour are normal and fade within about 30 minutes. Use pans with thick, flat bases the same size as the plate, never place a large pot across two plates, and switch the plates off 5 to 10 minutes before the end of long cooking times to use the residual heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003ch1\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Products \/ Accessories:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCooker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Artusi AFE544W 54cm Freestanding Electric Cooker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOven accessories:\u003c\/strong\u003e Baking tray, 2 x grill racks, chrome side rack supports and heat-resistant tray handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSafety and finishing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two anti-tilt chains and a rear splashback panel with fixing screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Adjustable feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDocumentation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Operation manual and warranty registration card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003ch1\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\u003cp\u003eArtusi appliances are backed by a 2-year manufacturer's warranty covering parts and labour.
