Efficient use of your hob
The hob is equipped with zones designed to accommodate most
shapes and sizes of pan. For best results, only use pans with flat
bottoms and choose an appropriate zone depending on the size of
the pan. The most efficient use of the hob is shown below, where the
pan and zone are correctly chosen.
Use pan lids where possible to minimize the energy usage of your
appliance.
It is very important that the pans used on the hob are made of a suitable
material and have the correct type of base. The base of the pan and
the hob top must be clean before use to prevent any scratches on the
hob top.
Please note:
Extra care should be taken if cast iron pans are used as
these have coarse bases which may damage the hob top.
