3.5 Cooktop operating principle
The heating elements located underneath the glass-ceramic cooktop heat the surface to the
required temperature; a maximum temperature of 550°C (1022°F) can be reached in just
a few minutes.
Pots absorb heat by contact and irradiation.
When cooking food, any energy savings will depend on the quality of pots and pans, and
in particular of their bottom.
Pot diameter should match the cooking zone. Use cookware suitable for cooking over
electric hot plates.
