Efficient Use Of Your Hob
The hob is equipped with hotplates of different sizes, designed to
accommodate most shapes and sizes of pan. For best results, only
use pans with flat bottoms and choose an appropriate hotplate
depending on the size of the pan. The most efficient use of the hob is
shown below, where the pan and hotplate are correctly chosen.
Use pan lids where possible to minimize the energy usage of your
appliance.
Turn off each hotplate a few minutes before the end of cooking time.
The residual heat in the hotplate will continue to cook the food for the
remaining cooking time. This will also help preserve the look of your
appliance.
The table below shows the sizes of pan that should be used with
each hotplate:
