HOB - HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING!

Refer to "Safety information" chapter.

COOKWARE

• The bottom of the cookware must be as thick and flat as pos- sible.

Cookware made of enamelled steel and with aluminium or copper bottoms can cause the colour to change on the glass- ceramic surface.

ENGLISH 13

Put cookware on a cooking zone before you start it.

Deactivate the cooking zones before the end of the cooking time to use residual heat.

The bottom of pans and cook- ing zones must have the same dimension.
