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.
