4 Environmental protection and saving energy
4.1 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less energy.
Choose a burner roughly the same size as your pan.
Centre the cookware on the hob.
Tip: Cookware manufacturers often give the upper
diameter of the saucepan. It is often larger than the
base diameter.
¡ Unsuitable cookware or incompletely covered cook-
ing zones consume a lot of energy.
Cover saucepans with suitable lids.
¡ Cooking without a lid consumes considerably more
energy.
Lift lids as infrequently as possible.
¡ When you lift the lid, a lot of energy escapes.
5 Familiarising yourself with your appliance
5.1 Control knob
You can use the control panel to configure all functions
of your appliance and to obtain information about the

Environmental protection and saving energy en
Use a glass lid.
¡ You can see into the pan through a glass lid
without having to lift it.
Use cookware that is suitable for the quantity of food.
¡ Large items of cookware containing little food need
more energy to heat up.
Cook with only a little water.
¡ The more water that is contained in the cookware,
the more energy is required to heat it up.
Turn down to a lower power level early on.
¡ If you use an ongoing power level that is too high,
you will waste energy.
4.2 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compat-
ible and can be recycled.
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
▶
of them separately.
