COOKWARE FOR
VITROCERAMICS
• •
Cookware
It must be designed for electric cooking.
It must have flat bottoms.
Preferably use cookware made of:
- Stainless steel with a thick or “sandwich”
three-metal bottom.
- Aluminium with a thick smooth bottom.
- Enamelled steel
• •
Use
A higher setting is required if:
- there are large quantities
- cooking with uncovered cookware
- a glass or ceramic pan is used.
A lower setting is required if:
- cooking food which has a tendency to burn
easily (start with a lower setting - the setting
can be increased if necessary).
- a spill occurs (remove the lid or remove the
pan, then reduce the setting).
• •
Energy saving:
To finish the cooking, set at position 0, leaving
the cookware in position to use the accumu-
lated heat (this will save energy).
Use a lid as often as possible to reduce heat
loss by evaporation.
• •
Automatic regulation of rings
The rings are regulated automatically; they
switch on and off to maintain the selected
power level. The temperature thus remains
uniform and appropriate for cooking your
food.
The regulation frequency varies according to
the selected power level.
Tip
Use cookware of an appropriate size.
The diameter of the bottom of the cook-
ware must be equal to or greater than the
printed zone.
Do not leave empty cookware on a cooking
zone.
Do not leave cookware containing hot oil or
fat unsupervised on a cooking zone.
