For the correct use of the hot- plates

For better efficiency of the electric hotplates and lower electricity consumption:

•switch on the hotplates only after placing the pots on them.

•For cooking on the electric hotplates

it is advisable to use triple-bottom pots of the same width as the cooking zone, or slightly larger (Figure).

•Do not use wet pots on the electric

hot-plates, and do not place wet lids on the switched off hot-plates, because the moisture and condensate could damage them.

•If possible, place lids on the pots.

Copper or aluminium pots and pans are not very suitable for cooking on the electric hotplates, because they can leave residues, stains and marks. Likewise, meat grills in cast iron or other alloys are not suitable for cooking on the electric hotplates, because they cause dangerous accumulation of heat.

Also, the rough bottom can scratch the cooktop and the material can stain it. Possibly choose a meat grill in stainless steel with triple bottom.

The use of glass containers is also inadvisable, because they usually have very uneven bottoms. Never use plastic containers.

•Do not place unstable or deformed

pots on the hotplates because they could tip over or spill their contents and thus cause accidents.

•Pots must not enter the control zone.

•Make sure boiling liquids do not spill onto the hotplates.
