Pay special attention to the chapter "Hints on safety". Keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference and pass them on to any subsequent owner of the appliance. The warning triangle and/or specific words (warning, caution, important) are used to highlight information that is important for your safety or the functioning of the appliance. [. . . ] If you are using special cooking utensils like pressure cookers or a WOK, follow the manufacturer's instructions. Follow any guidelines provided by the saucepan manufacturer. Ensure they are recommended for use on ceramic hobs. D D D D D D D General hints D D The bases should always be clean and dry. To avoid scratching or damaging the ceramic glass surface, pots and pans should be moved on the hob by lifting them, and not by sliding. Scratches can also be caused by grains of sand (e. g. originating from the previous washing of vegetables), drawn over the cooking surface with the pan, or by burrs and the rims of pan bases. Use high sided pans for dishes with a lot of liquid, so that nothing boils over. D D Energy consumption To save energy, you should: D D place pots and pans in position before switching on the cooking zone. use only cooking and frying utensils with smooth, flat bases. 8 D D D D wherever possible, cover pots and pans with a lid. never place pots or pans on cooking zones with a higher diameter. because of wet or dirty cooking zones and pots energy will be wasted. switch off the cooking zone a few minutes before the end of the cooking time, in order to make use of the residual heat. When using pressure cookers you can reduce the cooking time by up to 50%. As well as saving energy, more vitamins and minerals are retained in the food.
