HINTS AND TIPS
Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and off the hob to help reduce scratches and maintain the efficiency of the hotplates.
Avoid placing fish kettles or large preserving pans across two hotplates as this may cause damage.
Follow any guidelines provided by the saucepan manufacturer, particularly those relating to recommended heat settings.
Avoid using thin, badly dented or distorted saucepans. Those with uneven bases should not be used.
