Be careful not to place any wet or steamed up lids on an unused hotplate, as this
will lead to rust.

Pans should have a thick flat base to be effective. Check the base of the pan with a
ruler. It should be either the same size or slightly larger than the hotplate.

The plates with a red dot in the middle heat up 30% faster than those without.

Do not use decorative covers over the hotplates as these hold condesation and could
be dangerous if the hob was accidentally turned on.
Using pans with tight fitting lids when cooking reduces cooking time and saves ener-
gy. 

Turn the heat off a short time before you finish cooking and the residual heat from
the hotplate will finish the cooking for you. 

Never have handles overhanging the worktop - they can easily be caught and overbal-
ance; similarly, never have the handles overlapping other hotplates that are in use. 

It is always worthwhile buying good saucepans (many now have a 25 year guarantee)
for the best results from your hob.

Cooking Hints

Troubleshooting

If you acquire a problem with your hob, check the following points before calling an engi-
neer.

1. The power is switched on.

2. The controls are switched on.

3. Both the fuse and the mains fuse are intact.

Should you still require an engineer then call the CAPLE Helpline on 0870 241 1142.

Never cook the food directly on the electric hotplates, but in special pans or containers.
