COOKING EQUIPMENT
Specially tested cooking and frying pans for ceramic
hobs exist. Pay attention to the declaration of the
manufacturer.
Cooking pans with aluminium or copper bottoms
can cause metallic discolouration that can not
removed anymore. Be especially careful in using
enamel pans. Avoid the heating-up of empty pans
since their base could be damaged in a way which
can cause scratches when removed on the hob's
surface.
The following advice should be considered to
achieve an optimal energy consumption as well as
to avoid that overboiling food can be burnt onto the
cooking zones.
Bottom of pans:
Cooking and frying pans should have a flat and solid
base. A base with rough edges can scratch and leave
abrasion marks on the ceramic surface! Ask for electric
saucepans.
Size of pans:
Pan or pot diameters should correspond to the diameter
of the cooking zone.
Lid of pans:
A lid prevents heat to escape, shortens the heating-up
time and reduces the energy consumption.
Note:
• Prevent little children from touching the cook top
when in use. Children also can burn themselves by
pulling pans or pots off the hob.
• The cooking zones heat up quickly when they are
turned on. Turn them on only when you have placed a
saucepan onto the cooking area.
• Be careful by using the hob as a working-table or when
depositing items on the hob's surface. The items you
place on the hob could easily catch fire when turning on
the hob accidentally. Afterwards the hob should be
cleaned thoroughly.
• Sugar (solid or liquid) as well as plastic should never
get onto the hot surface of the hob. Also, never use
plastic or aluminium foil dishes. They melt at high
temperatures and can cause fissures and cracks when
the hob cools down. Spills of sugar or melted plastic
material must be removed while the hob is still warm and
before the remains have set.
Scrape off the remains of sugar or plastic with a scra-per.
Protect your hands.
• The ceramic hob surface is resistant to extreme
temperatures. Neither cold nor heat can harm it. Avoid
to drop anything on the hob. Punctiform impacts, e.g. by
the fall of a salt shaker, can cause fissures and cracks.
• If any cracks appear on the hob surface, the hob has
to be switched off immediately. Disconnect the appliance
from the mains and inform the service department.
