Protecting the environment

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.

Energy-saving advice

■ Always use the correct lid for each pan. Cooking without a lid

uses a lot more energy. Use a glass lid to provide visibility

and avoid having to lift the lid.

■ Use pans with flat bases. Bases that are not flat use a lot

more energy.

■ The diameter of the pan base must match the size of the

hotplate. Please note: pan manufacturers usually provide the

diameter for the top of the pan, which is usually larger than

the diameter of the pan base.

■ Use a small pan for small amounts of food. A large pan which

is not full uses a lot of energy.

■ Use little water when cooking. This saves energy and

preserves all the vitamins and minerals in vegetables.

■ Select the lowest power level to maintain cooking. If the

power level is too high, energy is wasted.

Induction cooking

Advantages of induction cooking

Induction cooking represents a radical change from the

traditional method of heating; the heat is generated directly in

the pan. It therefore offers a number of advantages:

■ Time savings for cooking and frying; since the pan is heated

directly.

■ Energy is saved.

■ Care and cleaning are simpler. Foods that have spilt do not

burn as quickly.

■ Heat and safety control; the hob supplies or cuts off power as

soon as the control knob is turned on. The induction hotplate

stops supplying heat if the pan is removed without having

previously switched it off.

Cookware

Only ferromagnetic pans are suitable for induction cooking;

these may be made from:

■ enamelled steel

■ cast iron

■ special stainless steel induction pans.

To determine whether a pan is suitable, check to see if a

magnet will stick to its base.

There are other types of cookware for induction whose base is

not entirely ferromagnetic.

Unsuitable pans

Never use diffuser hobs or pans made from:

■ common thin steel

■ glass

■ earthenware

■ copper

■ aluminium

Damage Cause Measure

Stains Food spillage Immediately remove spilt food using a glass scraper.

Unsuitable cleaning products Only use cleaning products specifically designed for glass-ceramic hobs.

Scratches Salt, sugar and sand Do not use the hob as a tray or working surface.

Pans with rough bottoms may scratch

the glass ceramic

Check pans.

Fading Unsuitable cleaning products Only use cleaning products specifically produced for glass-ceramic hobs.

Contact with pans Lift pots and pans before moving them around.

Chips Sugar, substances with a high sugar

content

Immediately remove spilt food using a glass scraper.

This appliance is labelled in accordance with European

Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and

electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic

equipment - WEEE). The guideline determines the

framework for the return and recycling of used

appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

When using large cookware on a

smaller ferromagnetic area, only

the ferromagnetic zone heats up,

so heat might not be uniformly

distributed.

Pans with aluminium areas

inserted in the base reduce the

ferromagnetic area, so less heat

may be supplied and the pan may

be difficult to detect or not be

detected at all.

For good cooking results, the

diameter of the cookware's ferro-

magnetic area should match the

size of the hotplate. If cookware is

not detected on a hotplate, try it

on the next smaller hotplate down.
