Tips on handling the hob
To prevent the glass ceramic surface from damage, observe the following:
Do not use the hob for resting things on.
The base of the pots and pans may have edges and ridges which leave
scratches when moved, particularly for cast iron cookware.
Scratches can occur for instance, if grains of sand left over from cleaning
vegetables are dragged over the surface of the hob.
Prevent the following from coming into contact with the hot surface:
– Plastic
– Aluminium foil
– Sugar or substances with a high sugar content.
Prevent food residues from burning on repeatedly.
To achieve the best results with the hob, observe the following basic rules
when cooking and preparing meals:
The cooking zones heat up very quickly, but cool down slowly. Turn the
control knob to the required position straight away.
Use high quality pots and pans with even bases to ensure full contact with
the cooking zone.
The better the contact between the cooking zone and the pot or pan, the
better the efficiency.
Pots and pans made from stainless steel and cast iron are the most suit-
able. Aluminium pans are not recommended for the maximum tempera-
ture setting.
Make sure that the pot or pan is the same size as the cooking zone or
slightly larger.
