Practical advice for using the hob
• The diameter of the base of the pan must
correspond to the diameter of the
cooking zone.
• When buying a saucepan, check
whether the diameter indicated is that of
the base or the top of the container, as
the top is almost always larger than the
base.
• The base of the cookware must be thick
and completely flat. It should also be
clean and dry. The hob should be clean
and dry as well.
• When preparing dishes with long
cooking times, you can save time and
energy by using a pressure cooker,
which also makes it possible to preserve
the vitamins in the food.
• Make sure that the pressure cooker
contains enough liquid as, if there is not
enough and it overheats, this may cause
damage to both the pressure cooker and
the cooking zone.
• If possible, always cover saucepans with
a suitable lid.
• Choose a pan suitable for the quantity of
food to be cooked. A large, half-empty
saucepan leads to a waste of energy.
• Do not use cast-iron cookware or
cookware with a rough base.
3.5 Using the storage compartment
The storage compartment is at the bottom of
the cooker. To open it, pull the handle
towards you. It can be used to store
cookware or metallic objects necessary
when using the appliance.
