PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS:
• Use cookware suitable for the size of the hot-
plate.
• Do not use excess water to cook foods. The
more water used, the more energy needed.
• Whenever possible use a pressure cooker, it
saves time and energy.
• Switch the hotplates on only when the cookware
is ready and switch them off before removing it.
• Cookware must be flat.
• Use cookware suitable for the amount being
cooked. Large pots used for small amounts
increase power consumption.
• Cooking without using the lid for the cookware
increases power consumption.
