Never place the hot jars on a cold or wet surface as
this could cause the glass to crack.
Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe
or in the operating instructions table.
Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins.
They absorb the heat particularly well.
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other.
The oven is still warm. This reduces the baking time
for the second cake. You can also place two cake tins
next to each other.
For longer cooking times, you can switch the oven off
10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and
use the residual heat to finish cooking.
We recommend that you use pots and pans with
thick, even bases. Uneven bases increase the
cooking times.
Always use a saucepan which is the correct size for
your food. A larger, less full saucepan requires more
energy.
Always place a suitable lid on the saucepan.
The best transfer of heat is guaranteed when the base
of the saucepan and the hotplate are the same size.
When buying your pans, note that the manufacturer
frequently specifies the diameter of the top of the pan.
This is usually bigger than the diameter of the base of
the pan.
Switch to a lower heat setting in good time.
Use the residual heat. For longer cooking times, you
can switch the hotplate off 5 to 10 minutes before the
end of the cooking time.
