Property damage
Damage to the hob Only use the burners if cookware is placed on them.
Do not heat empty pots or pans. This will damage the
pan base.
Do not allow saucepans to boil dry, in particular
enamel and aluminium saucepans.
The pan base must be clean, dry and flat.
With electric hotplates, it is possible that not enough
heat is drawn off and the pans become red hot.
Please follow the manufacturer's instructions when
using special cookware. Aluminium foil and plastic
containers can melt and stick on hot burners.
Do not use a roasting dish which has to be heated
using two burners. This will cause heat to
accumulate. This could damage the appliance.
Please note that appliances with a hob cover may
only be used with the hob cover open.
