Using the hob
General information about coo-
king
Never fill the pan with oil more
than one third of it. Do not
leave the hob unattended when
heating oil. Overheated oils
bring risk of fire.
Never at-
tempt to extinguish a possib-
le fire with water!
When oil
catches fire, cover it with a fire
blanket or damp cloth. Turn off
the hob if it is safe to do so and
call the fire department.
•
Before frying foods, always dry them
well and gently place into the hot oil.
Ensure complete thawing of frozen fo-
ods before frying.
•
Do not cover the vessel you use when
heating oil.
•
Place the pans and saucepans in a
manner so that their handles are not
over the hob to prevent heating of the
handles. Do not place unbalanced and
easily tilting vessels on the hob.
•
Do not place empty vessels and sau-
cepans on cooking zones that are
switched on. They might get damaged.
•
Operating a cooking zone without a
vessel or saucepan on it will cause
damage to the product. Turn off the
cooking zones after the cooking is
complete.
•
As the surface of the product can be
hot, do not put plastic and aluminum
vessels on it.
Such vessels should not be used to
keep foods either.
•
Use flat bottomed saucepans or ves-
sels only.
•
Put appropriate amount of food in
saucepans and pans. Thus, you will
not have to make any unnecessary
cleaning by preventing the dishes from
overflowing.
Do not put covers of saucepans or
pans on cooking zones.
Place the saucepans in a manner so
that they are centered on the cooking
zone. When you want to move the sa-
ucepan onto another cooking zone, lift
and place it onto the cooking zone you
want instead of sliding it.
Gas cooking
•
Size of the vessel and the flame must
match each other. Adjust the gas fla-
mes so that they will not extend the
bottom of the vessel and center the
vessel on saucepan carrier.
