COOKING HINTS:
✓
To reduce the cooking time, you can turn the control knob to the max when you
switch the plate on.
After a short time you will set the control knob to the required position for the
cooking.
✓
You should use pots and pans with flat bases.
The diameter of the pan should match that of the cooking plate (or be slightly
bigger) to make the most of the energy.
✓
Since the cooking surface stays hot for a certain time after the plate has been
switched off, you can switch it off minutes before the end of cooking.
