PRACTICAL ADVICE ON USING THE VITROCERAMIC HEATING ELEMENTS
-
With the vitroceramic heating elements it is advisable to use flat-bottomed pots and pans of the same width
(or slightly larger) as the hotplate.
-
Avoid spilling liquids; therefore when boiling or heated, lower the heat setting.
-
Do not leave the cooking zone activated when not being used or with empty pots or pans on it.
-
Deactivate the zone at the end of cooking.
