Helpful hints and tips
Warning! Refer to the Safety chapters.
Cookware
• The bottom of the cookware must be as thick
and flat as possible.
Energy saving
• If possible, always put the lids on the cook-
ware.
• Put cookware on a solid hotplate before you
start it.
• Stop the solid hotplate before the end of the
cooking time to use residual heat.
• For satisfactory results, the diameter of pans
and cooking zones must have the same di-
mensions.
Use pots and pans with bottom applicable to the
dimension of the cooking zones.

After that, operate the appliance at minimum position
for 20 min. During this period, an odour and smoke can
occur. This is normal. Make sure that the airflow is suffi-
cient.
Rapid hot plate
A red dot in the middle of the plate shows a rapid hot
plate. A rapid hot plate heats up faster than usual
plates.
The red dots are painted on the plates. They can deteri-
orate during use and even disappear completely after a
period of time. It does not have an effect on the per-
formance of the appliance.
