Settings table and tips
Tips for cooking and roasting
The values given in the settings table must be looked
upon as recommended values. The heat required
depends not only on the type and condition of the
food, but also the size and contents of the pot.
Due to the high performance of the cooktop, fat and
oil will heat up quickly. Never leave the cooktop
unattended, fat can ignite, food can burn.
Preferably use the rear cooking zones to prepare
meals, that need longer to cook.
Preferably use the high output burners for brief
cooking, deep fat frying and searing of large
quantities.
Cookware recommendations
The following tips can help you save energy and avoid
damage to your cookware.
Suitable cooking vessels
Pots with a diameter of less than 90 mm or more
than 220 mm should not be used.
When using large
pots, pay attention to keeping to a minimum distance
of 50 mm between the cooking vessel and
combustible surroundings. Keep to a minimum
distance of 50 mm between the cooking vessel and
the control knob or the control panel. The cooking
vessel should not touch the control panel.

Use pots or pans which are
the right size for each
burner.
Do not use small pots or
pans on large burners. The
flame should not touch the
sides of the pot.
Do not use damaged pots
or pans, which do not sit
evenly on the cooktoop,
they may tip over.
Only use pots or pans with
a thick, flat base.
Do not cook without using
a lid and make sure the lid
is properly fitted. This
wastes energy.
Always centre the pot or
pan over the burner,
otherwise it could tip over.
Do not place large pots on
the burners near the
control knobs. These may
get damaged by the high
temperatures.
