[. . . ] Ceramic glass hob Installation and Operating Instructions EHP6602K 822 924 207-A-020603-03 g Dear Customer, Please read these operating instructions carefully. Above all, please observe the "safety" section on the first few pages. Please retain these operating instructions for later reference. Pass them on to any subsequent owners of the appliance. [. . . ] The base should be as thick and flat as possible. · Pay particular attention when buying new pans to the diameter of the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim. · Pots with aluminium or copper bases can cause metallic discolouring on the ceramic glass surface, which is very difficult or impossible to remove. · Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burred or damaged base. This can produce permanent scratching if the pan is slid across the surface. · When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly inwards (concave). They should never be bowed outwards (convex). · If you wish to use special types of pan (e. g. a pressure cooker, simmering pan, wok, etc. ), please observe the manufacturer's instructions. 2 Energy saving tips You can save valuable energy by observing the following points: · Always position pots and pans before switching on the cooking zone. · Dirty cooking zones and pan bases increase power consumption. · Whenever possible always position the lids firmly on pots and pans to cover completely. · Switch off the cooking zones before the end of the cooking time to use the residual heat such as to keep foods warm or for melting. · The base of the pan should be the same size as the cooking zone. · Using a pressure cooker reduces cooking times by up to 50%. 11 Chart for Setting the Cooking Zones The setting position required for cooking processes is dependent on the quality of the pots and on the type and amount of the food. 2. Then clean the hob normally when it has cooled down. If the cooking zone on which something has melted has already cooled down, warm it up again for cleaning. Scratches or dark marks on the ceramic glass surface, caused for example by a pan base with sharp edges, cannot be removed. However, they do not impair the function of the hob. 3 Hob Frame 1 Important!Do not put vinegar, lemon-juice or scale removers on the hob frame, otherwise dull spots will appear. 1. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid. Then wipe off and rub dry. 14 What to do if . . .
