Electric hob
Heating up the hotplate
To remove the new appliance smell, heat up the hotplate
without a saucepan at the highest level for 3 minutes.
Setting procedure for the electric hotplate
You can adjust the heat setting of the hotplates using the
hotplate knobs.
Proceed as follows:
1.
Open the top cover. The top cover must remain open while
the electric hotplate is in operation.
2.
Turn the switch for the electric hotplate anti-clockwise to a
suitable heat setting between 1 and 6.
3.
The electric hotplate is 145 mm in diameter. Use a pan with a
flat base and the same diameter.
4.
Set the electric hotplate switch to 0 to stop cooking.
Heat setting 1 = lowest output
Heat setting 6 = highest output
The indicator lamp lights up when the hotplate is switched on.
Important information about your electric hotplate
If the diameter of the pot or pan base is not the same as that of
the hotplate or if the pan base is not flat, energy will be used
unnecessarily. Any overflowing liquid will burn on and leave
stains that are difficult to remove.
Make sure that the pot or pan base is dry.
The electric hotplate must not be switched on if there is no pan
on it.
Due to the effects of heat, the metallic hotplate ring will
discolour over time. You can remove this discolouration by
cleaning the hotplate ring using the rough side of a sponge and
a cleaning agent. When cleaning, make sure that the sponge
does not come into contact with the hotplate.
Residual heat will still be present when the hotplate is switched
off. Keep children away from the appliance.
Make sure that the rotary knob for the hotplate is switched off
following a power cut.
Table – Cooking
Select the right pan size for each hotplate. The diameter of the
pot or pan base should be the same as that of the hotplate.
Cooking times may vary depending on the type of food, its
weight and quality. You yourself can best judge the optimal
cooking time.
Use as little water as possible when cooking, so that the food
retains its vitamins and minerals. Select short cooking times so
that the vegetables remain firm and full of nutrients.
