When cooking, never use kitchen foil and never put items wrapped in kitchen foil straight
onto the hob.
The aluminium would melt and do irreparable damage to your appliance.

•
A higher setting is needed when :
- your pan contains a large quantity of food;
- there is no lid on the pan;
- you use a glass or ceramic pan.
•
A lower setting is needed when :
- you are cooking foods which tend to burn easily (start on a lower setting than the one shown in
the table below - you can increase the setting subsequently if necessary);
- the pan boils over (take the lid off or remove the pan, then turn the setting down).
•
Energy saving :
To finish cooking, press the "stop" control and leave the pan on the hob to make use of the
residual heat (thereby saving energy).
Use a lid as often as possible in order to reduce heat lost by evaporation.
To obtain full satisfaction, follow the examples in the guide above, bearing in mind that settings 9 and 8
are maximum positions and should only be used for deep frying and bringing up to the boil quickly.
