Packaging and equipment used

If your appliance has a crossed-out dustbin symbol
note the following.

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used
electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical
and electronic equipment - WEEE). The guideline
determines the framework for the return and recycling
of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.
The packaging of your appliance has been manufactured using
only the materials which are strictly necessary to guarantee
efficient protection during transport. These materials are 100%
recyclable, thus reducing the environmental impact. You can
also contribute to caring for the environment by following the
advice below:
Dispose of the packaging in the appropriate recycling bin.
■
Before you get rid of an old appliance, make sure you disable
■
it. Contact your local authority to find out the address of your
nearest recycling centre to dispose of your appliance.
Do not pour used oil down the sink. Collect it in a sealed
■
container and take it to an appropriate collection point or,
failing that, place it in the rubbish bin (it will end up in a
controlled dump; this is probably not the best option, but it
will avoid contaminating ground water).

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.

Measures to be noted during transport

Secure all mobile parts on the appliance using an adhesive
tape that can be removed without leaving any traces. Secure
the top cover, if available, to the appliance sides using
adhesive tape.
Keep the original appliance packaging. Only transport the
appliance in the original packaging. Observe the transport
arrows on the packaging.
If the original packaging is no longer available
pack the appliance in protective packaging to guarantee
sufficient protection against any transport damage.
The appliance must be transported upright, with the hotplate
and the burners facing upwards. Do not place any heavy
objects on the appliance.
