Protecting the environment

Energy-saving advice

Always place a fitting lid on cookware. Cooking with
▯
an uncovered pan will increase energy consumption
considerably. Use a glass lid to provide visibility and
avoid having to lift the lid.
Use cookware equipped with a solid, flat bottom.
▯
Curved pan bases increase energy consumption.
The diameter of the pan base must match the size of
▯
the element. If not, energy may be wasted.
Choose cookware of a size suited to the amount of
▯
food you are going to cook. A large pan that is only
half full will use a lot of energy.
Use a small amount of water when cooking. This
▯
saves energy, and vegetables retain a larger
percentage of their vitamins and minerals.
Select a lower power level.

Hard and sharp objects: Hard or sharp objects falling
▯
on the cooktop may damage it.
Boiled-over food: Sugar and products containing
▯
sugar may damage the cooktop. Immediately eliminate
spills of these products with a glass scraper.
Foils and plastics: Aluminum foil and plastic will melt
▯
on the hot cooking zones. Stove protective film isn't
suitable for your cooktop.
Unsuitable cleaning agent: Shimmering metallic
▯
discolorations on the glass ceramic surface result from
the use of inappropriate cleaning agents and abrasion
from cookware.
