Causes of damage:

Do not lean on the hob or use it as work surface.
Hard and pointed objects

Spilt food
Sugar and other similar products may damage the hob.
These products should be removed immediately using a
glass scraper.
Inappropriate cleaning products
Discolorations in the metal are caused by using unsuitable cleaning products and
wear as a result of contact with pans.

Advice on saving energy
Use a pan with thick flat base. Curved bases increase
energy consumption.
Place a ruler on the base of the pan, if there are no
gaps, the base of the pan is completely flat.
The diameter of the base of the pan should fit the
size of the hotplate.
Check if the manufacturer has indicated the upper diameter of the pan. In general,
this is greater than the diameter of the base of the pan.
If the diameter of the pan does not fit the diameter of the hotplate, you are
recommended to use a pan which is larger than the size of the hotplate, or else about
half the energy will be lost.
