7Environmental protection
In this section, you can find information about saving

E n v i r o n m e n t a l p r o
energy and disposing of the appliance.
Energy-saving advice
Always use the correct lid for each pan. Cooking
■
without a lid uses a lot more energy. Use a glass lid
to provide visibility and avoid having to lift the lid.
Use pans with flat bases. Bases that are not flat use
■
a lot more energy.
The diameter of the pan base must match the size of
■
the hotplate. Please note: pan manufacturers usually
provide the diameter for the top of the pan, which is
usually larger than the diameter of the pan base.
Use a small pan for small amounts of food. A large
■
pan which is not full uses a lot of energy.
Use little water when cooking. This saves energy and
■
preserves all the vitamins and minerals in
vegetables.
Select the lowest power level to maintain cooking. If
■
the power level is too high, energy is wasted.
