Efficient Use of your Hob

Before using your hob for the first time, switch the zones on for a FEW SECONDS to burn off any grease left over from the manufacturing process

The ceramic glass retains heat, so to make best use of the residual heat, switch off the zone five minutes prior to the end of cooking.

To reduce the cooking time, the zone can be set to the maximum setting at the beginning of cooking, and then reduced during cooking time.

The hob is equipped with zones of different sizes, designed to accommodate most shapes and sizes of pan. For best results, only use pans with flat bottoms and choose an appropriate zone depending on the size of the pan. The most ef- ficient use of the hob is shown below, where the pan and zone are correctly chosen.

Use pan lids where possible to minimise the energy usage of your appliance.

It is very important that the pans used on the hob are made of a suitable material and have the correct type of base. The base should be flat and smooth, as any rough part on the pan base could scratch the ceramic hob top.

Choose pans which are between the sizes recommended in the table above, and with bases that are as non-reflective as pos- sible, e.g. dull and dark.

Only pans recommended for use on ceramic hobs should be used.
