Using your Freestanding Cooker
Getting the most from your appliance
Using the
ceramic cooking zones
of your cooker
Do not use mats, heat diffusers or wok stands. These will cause a temperature build-up which can damage the
hob.
Do not let cooking pots over spill, this could leave a mark and residue on the glass.
Choosing Cooking Pots
Look at this diagram below which shows you which pans to use on the hotplates and which pans should not be
used
Always use pots and pans with flat bottoms. Uneven or thin bottoms will waste energy and cook slowly.
Always use pots and pans which are slightly larger than the hotplate. Small pans waste energy.
Always put dry pots and pans on the hotplates.
Ceramic hotplate
Do not use if the ceramic glass top is cracked or broken.
Do not leave aluminum foil on the hot ceramic hotplates (permanent damage will occur).
