How to use the heating plate
Save energy by using the appropriate cookware. Properly selected cookware must have a
flat and solid base, and its diameter must match the diameter of the cooking zone, which
results in a better heat transfer (Fig. 4)
How is energy lost?
Fig. 5 A - Cookware is smaller than the cooking zone
Fig. 5 B - Cookware has a concave base
Fig. 5 C – Lid lets heat escape
Tips to follow:
•
Do not operate a cooking zone without cookware
•
Cookware to be placed on a cooking zone must have a clean and dry base
•
Never cook food in plastic cookware
•
Do not place plastic products, such as spoons, forks, etc. on a hot hob
•
Always use cookware with a lid, and make sure that lid does not protrude outside the
pot’s rim and condensation does not leak on the hob.
•
Protect cooking zones against corrosion,
•
Turn off the cooking zones approximately 5 minutes before removing cookware.
