You put some oil in it, turn the pan so it coats the cooking surface
and put it in the oven as per the pan booklet instructions. I don't
recall the exact heat.
The first few times you use it, it will not be perfect. You may
needa bit more oil in the batter to prevent sticking. But after a
half-dozen times (and this the great thing with carbon steel, it's a
lot faster than cast iron in developing patina) it should be perfect.
Of course, some may disagree.
