Energy consumption
To save energy, you should . .
- use only cooking and frying utensils with smooth,
flat bottoms.
- place pots and pans in position before switching
on the cooking zone.
- wherever possible, cover pots and pans with a lid.
- switch off the cooking zone a few minutes before
the end of the cooking time, in order to make use
of the residual heat.
- use the residual heat of the cooking zones for
keeping food warm or for melting.
- position pots and pans centrally on the cooking
zones.
Saucepans and frying pans
Saucepans and frying pans should not be smaller than
the cooking zone, and preferably not more than 10-15
mm larger than the diameter of the cooking zone.
Always use cooking and frying utensils with smooth,
flat bottoms.
The bottoms should always be clean and dry. Cook
with a lid in place.
Check that the bases of utensils are smooth and
undamaged; bases with burrs and sharp edges will
scratch the ceramic glass surface.
To avoid scratching or damaging the ceramic cooking
surface, pots and pans should be moved on the plate
by lifting them, and not by sliding.
Utensils with aluminium and copper bases can leave
behind metallic discolorations which can only be
removed with difficulty or sometimes not at all.
