9 • PROBLEM SOLVING
The cooking zones do not simmer or only fry gently
• Only use flat-bottomed pans. If light is visible between the pan
and the hob, the zone is not transmitting heat correctly.
• The pan bottom should fully cover the diameter of the selected
zone.
The cooking is too slow
• Unsuitable pans are being used. Only use flatbottomed
utensils, that are heavy and have a diameter at least the same
as the cooking zone.
Small scratches or abrasions on the hob’s glass surface
• Incorrect cleaning or rough-bottomed pans are used; particles
like grains of sand or salt get between the hob and the bottom
of the pan. Refer to the “CLEANING” section; make sure that
pan bottoms are clean before use and only use smooth bottomed
pans. Scratches can be lessened only the cleaning is done
correctly.
Metal marks

recommendations.
• You use the correct materials, but the stains persist.
Use a razor blade and follow the “CLEANING” section.
Dark stains
