environmental aspects
disposal of packaging and appliance
The appliance's packaging is recyclable. The following may be
used:
• cardboard;
• polyethylene film (PE);
• CFC-free polystyrene (PS rigid foam).
Dispose of these materials responsibly and in accordance
with government regulations.
The government can also provide information about the
responsible disposal of discarded domestic appliances.
general information
pans
attention
Be careful with enamelled sheet-steel pans. These can be
damaged if they are used for induction cooking, particularly if
their bases are too thin.
With enamelled sheet-steel pans:
• the enamel may chip (the enamel comes loose from the
steel), if you switch the hob on at a high setting when the
pan is (too) dry;
• the base of the pan may warp - due, for example, to
overheating or to the use of too high a power level.
Never use pans with a misshapen base. A hollow or rounded
base can interfere with the operation of the overheating
protection, so that the appliance becomes too hot. This may
lead to the glass top cracking and the pan base melting.
Damage arising from the use of unsuitable pans or from
boiling dry is excluded from the guarantee.
noise in the base of the pan
While cooking, you will be able to hear a rattling noise in the
base of the pan. This is harmless. The noise is due to the
high power of the cooking zone having an effect on the base
of the pan.
Reduce the rattling noise by selecting a lower setting.
pressure cookers
Induction cooking is very suitable for cooking in pressure
cookers. The cooking zone reacts very quickly, and so the
pressure cooker is quickly up to pressure. As soon as you
switch a cooking zone off, the cooking process stops
immediately.
