Using the ceramic glass hob

Ceramic glass surface

The glass is hard, and has been tempered to withstand heat, cold and temperature shocks. But like all glass it is sensitive to impact. Do not stand on the ceramic glass surface.

If scratches or cracks are noticed, disconnect the cooker from the electrical supply and call you nearest Service Force Centre.

Keep all objects and materials which can melt away from the cooking surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil.

Care should be taken when preparing food or drinks containing sugar. If anything of this nature accidentally comes into contact with the ceramic surface it must be scraped off immediately while stlll hot and wiped away to avoid damage to the surface.

Energy consumption

To save energy, you should . .

- use only cooking and frying utensils with smooth, flat bases.

-place pots and pans in position before switching on the cooking zone.

- wherever possible, cover pots and pans with a lid.

-switch off the cooking zone a few minutes before the end of the cooking time, in order to make use of the

residual heat.

- use the residual heat of the cooking zones for keeping food warm or for melting.

-position pots and pans centrally on the cooking zones.

Saucepans and frying pans

Saucepans and frying pans should not be smaller than the cooking zone, and preferably not more than 10-15 mm larger than the diameter of the cooking zone.

Always use cooking and frying utensils with smooth, flat bases.

The bases should always be clean and dry. Cook with a lid in place.

Check that the bases of utensils are smooth and undamaged; bases with burrs and sharp edges will scratch the ceramic glass surface.

To avoid scratching or damaging the ceramic cooking surface, pots and pans should be moved on the plate by lifting them, and not by sliding.

Utensils with aluminium and copper bases can leave behind metallic discolourations which can only be removed with difficulty or sometimes not at all.
