In addition, to obtain the best results from your hob:
Use pans with a thick, flat base to fully utilise the
cooking zone.
Always use pans with a diameter that is large
enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use
all the available heat.
Make sure that the base of the cookware is
always dry and clean, to fully utilise and e
x
tend
the life of both the cooking zones and cookware.
Avoid using the same cookware that has been
used on gas burners: the heat concentration on
gas burners may deform the base of the pan,
causing it not to fit correctly.
