Recommended is cookware with
Sandwich / capsulated bottom.
Hotplates should not be switched on without a pan on top.
The base of the pan should be flat and dry.
Pans that have been used on gas cookers are not normally completely
flat and absorb heat badly.
Make sure that the diameter of the
pan is at least that of the hotplate.
Avoid dragging pans over the radiant glass
surface, as it may get scratched.
Always lift the pan.
Never use tin foil or plastic containers. They may
melt and fuse permanently with the radiant glass
surface.
