To use correctly remember to:

Switch the electric element only after having placed the pan on it.

Use flat and thick bottomed pans.

Never use pans which are smaller than the electric element.

Dry the bottom of the pan before placing it on the electric element.

When cooking with flammable oils and fats, never leave the appliance.

The electric elements will stay hot for a long time after use: do not touch them or place any objects on them.
