Operating the appliance

istic of all ceramic glass cooking zones and does not impair either the func-

tion or the life of the appliance.

Selecting the heat setting

1. When boiling water/searing food, select a high heat setting.

2. As soon as steam forms or the fat or oil is hot, set a lower heat setting.

3. To end the cooking process, turn to the Off position.

Tips on cooking and frying

3Information about acrylamides

According to the latest scientific research, intensive browning of food, espe-

cially in products containing starch, may present a health risk due to acryla-

mide. Therefore we recommend cooking at low temperatures and not

browning foods too much.

Cookware

•You can recognise good cookware from the bottoms of the pans. The bot-

tom should be as thick and flat as possible.

•Cookware made of enamelled steel or with aluminium or copper bottoms

can leave discolourations on the ceramic glass surface which are difficult

or impossible to remove.

Energy saving

2Always place cookware on the cooking

zone before it is switched on.

2If possible, always place lids on the pans.

2Switch cooking zones off before the end

of the cooking time, to take advantage of

residual heat.

2Bottom of pans and cooking zones

should be the same size.
