Tips for saving energy
The following information will help you to use your
appliance in an ecological way, and to save energy:
•
Use dark coloured or enamel coated cookware in
the oven since the heat transmission will be
better.
• While cooking your dishes, perform a preheating
operation if it is advised in the user manual or
cooking instructions.
• Do not open the door of the oven frequently
during cooking.
• Try to cook more than one dish in the oven at the
same time whenever possible. You can cook by
placing two cooking vessels onto the wire shelf.
• Cook more than one dish one after another. The
oven will already be hot.
• You can save energy by switching off your oven a
few minutes before the end of the cooking time.
Do not open the oven door.
• Defrost frozen dishes before cooking them.
• Use pots/pans with cover for cooking. If there is
no cover, energy consumption may increase 4
times.
• Select the burner which is suitable for the bottom
size of the pot to be used. Always select the
correct pot size for your dishes. Larger pots
require more energy.
