Caution! ■ Rough pot and pan bases scratch the ceramic.■ Avoid boiling pots dry. This may cause damage.■ Never place hot pots or pans on the control panel, the display area or the surround.

Environmental protection

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.

Energy-saving tips ■ Always place suitable lids on saucepans. When cooking without a lid, considerably more energy is required. A glass

lid means that you can see inside without having to lift the lid. ■ Use pots and pans with even bases. Uneven bases increase energy consumption. ■ The diameter of pot and pan bases should be the same size as the hotplate. In particular, small saucepans on the hotplate

cause energy losses. Please note: cookware manufacturers

often indicate the upper diameter of the saucepan. This is

usually bigger than the diameter of the base of the pan. ■ Use a small saucepan for small quantities. A larger, less full saucepan requires a lot of energy. ■ Cook with only a little water. This will save energy. Vitamins and minerals in vegetables are preserved. ■ Always cover as large an area of the hotplate as possible with your saucepan. ■ Switch to a lower heat setting in good time.■ Select a suitable ongoing cooking setting. You will waste energy by using an ongoing cooking setting which is too

high. ■ Use the residual heat of the hob. For longer cooking times, you can switch the hotplate off 5-10 minutes before the end

of the cooking time.
