Efficient Use of Your Hob
The hob is equipped with zones designed to accommodate most
shapes and sizes of pan. For best results, only use pans with flat
bottoms. The most efficient use of the hob is shown below, where the
pan and zone are correctly chosen. Use pan lids where possible to
minimize the energy usage of your appliance.
Locating a pan in the centre of the zone markings will ensure
optimum efficiency.
It is very important that the pans used on the hob are made of a
suitable material and have the correct type of base. The base of
the pan and the hob top must be clean before use to prevent any
scratches on the hob top.
Please note:
Extra care should be taken if cast iron pans are used as
these have coarse bases which may damage the hob top.
