Cooking at Peninsula

Cooking in the Residential Village

  1. To use your cook top, use your room key to activate the power switch located near the front door of your residence. Once you switch this on your cook top has power to operate.
  2. To heat the elements, turn the knobs to the desired temperature level. When the green light in the middle of the knobs lights up, your cook top is on.
  3. As the elements heat, an orange light will indicate the stove surface is hot. These orange lights turn off when the surface has reached room temperature, or when the cook top switch is turned off. This does not mean that your cook top is still on, only that it is hot.
  4. Do not cook directly onto the cook top. Always use a pan or cooking pot.
  5. When the cook top has cooled down, please clean it to remove all oil and cooking spillages.
  6. When you leave the kitchen area, please ensure that the knobs are in the off position, and the cook top switch is off to prevent a possible fire.
  7. Please remove your bedroom key from the power switch. Refer to the user manual for more information
