Efficient Use of Your Hob

Before using your hob for the first time, switch the zones on for a
FEW SECONDS to burn off any grease left over from the
manufacturing process.
The ceramic glass retains heat, so to make best use of the
residual heat, switch off the zone five minutes prior to the end of
cooking.
To reduce the cooking time, the zone can be set to the maximum
setting at the beginning of cooking, and then reduced during
cooking time.
The hob is equipped with zones of different sizes, designed to
accommodate most shapes and sizes of pan. For best results,
only use pans with flat bottoms and choose an appropriate zone
depending on the size of the pan. The most efficient use of the
hob is shown below, where the pan and zone are correctly
chosen.
Use pan lids where possible to minimise the energy usage of your
appliance.
