The apartments have induction hobs. Please use pots and pans that are induction-compatible.
How to use the hobs:
Place an induction pot or pan on the hob you want to use.
Switch on and select a heat level – it heats immediately.
Always use the kitchen fan while cooking.
Child lock: If the hob does not respond, the child lock may be active. Hold the key symbol for a few seconds to unlock.
Stove guard: If the hob still does not respond, press the reset button on the stove guard until it beeps, then try again.
Main power switch: If it still does not work, turn off the red lever in the cupboard near your entrance door. Wait a few seconds, turn it back on, and try again.
⚠ No heat will be produced unless induction-compatible cookware is placed on the hob.
Please note that not all apartments are equipped with a dishwasher. If your apartment has one, please follow the instructions below.
🔹 How do I use the dishwasher?
Instructions:
Turn on the water supply
Before starting, make sure the water supply to the dishwasher is turned on.
The valve for the water supply is usually located on the main kitchen tap and should be turned to the left (open position).
Please note that the design may vary between apartments.
You can tell the water is on when you hear water flowing into the machine after starting a program.
Use the correct detergent
You may use either a dishwasher tablet (provided upon arrival) or dishwasher powder.
As part of our welcome kit, we provide a couple of dishwasher tablets at check-in.
After that, guests are responsible for refilling their own supplies during the stay.
⚠ Do not use liquid dish soap, as it can cause an unwanted “foam party” both inside and outside the dishwasher.
Select the correct program
Choose the program that best suits your dishes, press start, and let the machine do the rest.
Tip:
Leave the door slightly open after the cycle to allow moisture to escape and help the machine dry faster.

For extra cooling, you can place a bowl of ice water in front of a fan to create a refreshing airflow.
