Uses, Tables and Tips

Pans

• You can recognise good pans by their bases. 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 normal-
ly bowed slightly inwards (con-
cave). They should never be
bowed outwards (convex).
• If you wish to use special types of
pan (e.g. a pressure cooker, sim-
mering pan, wok, etc.), please ob-
serve the manufacturer's instructions.

Energy saving tips
• Always position pots and pans before switching on the cooking zone.
• Whenever possible always posi-
tion the lids firmly on pots and
pans to cover completely.
• Switch off the cooking zones be-
fore 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.
