NERGY SAVING
:
❖
Use proper cookware for cooking.
❖ Cookware with thick, flat bases can save up to1/3 of electric energy. Remember
to cover your cookware if possible; otherwise you will use four times as much
energy!
❖
Match the size of the cookware to the surface of the heating plate. A cookware
should never be smaller than a heating plate.
❖
Ensure that the heating plates and the cookware are clean.
❖ Soils prevent heat-transfer. Repeatedly burnt-on spillages can often be removed
by products, which will damage the environment, only.
❖ Do not uncover the cookware too often (a watched pot-content will never boil!).
❖
Decrease the power level as soon as the desired cooking temperature is reached.
❖ Use pot-lids to shorten cooking times and save energy.
❖
Minimize the amount of cooking liquids or fat/oil to shorten cooking times.
❖
Select a high power level, when you start cooking. Reduce the power level, when
your food has been heated up.
❖
For long cooking times: Switch off the cooking zones 5 to 10 minutes before you
will finish cooking. This saves up to 20% of energy.
❖
You can use the residual heat of the cooking zones for saving energy when
starting a new cooking procedure on a cooking zone which is still warm / hot.
❖
Do not open the oven door unnecessarily often.
❖
Switch off the oven in good time and make use of the residual heat.
❖
Only use the oven when cooking larger dishes.
❖ Meat of up to 1 kg can be cooked more economically in a pan on the hob.
❖
Make use of the residual heat of the oven.
❖ If the cooking time takes longer than 40 minutes, switch off the oven 10 minutes
before.
❖ For baking it is better to use black trays which conduct heat better and shorten
the baking time.
❖ Make sure the oven door is closed properly.
❖
Heat can escape through spillages on the door seals. Clean up any spillages
immediately.
❖
Do not install the cooker near of refrigerators / freezers. Otherwise the energy
consumption increases unnecessarily.
