Energy Saving - Progress PAI8105E Notice D'utilisation

The noises during operation
If you can hear
• crack noise: cookware is made of differ-
ent materials (Sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you use one or more
cooking zones with high power levels and
the cookware is made of different materi-
als (Sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power levels.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer
to appliance malfunction.

Energy saving

How to save energy
• If it is possible, always put the lids on the
cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking zone before
you start it.
• Use the residual heat to keep the food
warm or to melt it.

The cooking zone efficiency
The cooking zone efficiency is related to the
diameter of the cookware. The cookware
with a smaller diameter than the minimum
receives only a part of the power generated
by the cooking zone. For the minimum di-
ameters see the Technical Information
chapter.
The Examples of cooking applications
The relation between the heat setting and
the cooking zone consumption of power is
not linear.
When you increase the heat setting it is not
proportional to the increase of the cooking
zone consumption of power.
It means that the cooking zone with the
medium heat setting uses less than a half of
its power.
The data in the table is for guidance
only.
