Practical advice on using the electric hotplates

To avoid heat loss and damage to the hotplates use pans with a flat base, whose diameter is no less than that of the hotplate itself.

Setting	Setting
0	Off
1	Cooking vegetables, fish
2	Cooking patatoes (using steam) soups,
	chickpeas, beans.
3	Continuing the cooking of large quantities of
	food, minestrone.
4	For roasting (average)
5	For roasting (above average)
6	---------
	For browning and reaching a boil in a short
	time

!Before using the hotplates for the first time, you should heat them at maximum temperature for approximately 4 minutes, without placing any pans on them. During this initial stage, their protective coating hardens and reaches its maximum resistance.
