COOKING HINTS

–To reduce the cooking time, you can turn the control knob to the max when you switch the plate on. After a short time you will set the control knob to the required position for the cooking.

–You should use pots and pans with flat bases (pans with the test mark for glass- ceramic hobs are available from specialist shops).

–The diameter of the pan should match that of the cooking plate (or be slightly bigger) to make the most of the energy.

–Since the cooking surface stays hot for a certain time after the plate has been switched off, you can switch it off 5 or 10 minutes before the end of the cooking. The residual heat of the hob will complete the cooking.

–To save electricity, use pan lids whenever possible.

Never cook the food directly on the glass ceramic cooktop, but in special pans or containers.

WARNING: Hobs become very hot with use, and retain their heat for a long time after cooking has finished (about 30 minutes).

Children should be supervised at all times and be prevented from touching the hot surfaces, until such time as the appliance has cooled.
