Practical advice on using the appliance
To obtain the best results from your hob:
• Use pans with a thick, flat base in order to fully
utilise the cooking zone.
• Always use pans with a diameter which is large
enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all
the available heat.
• Make sure that the base of the cookware is always
clean and dry, in order to fully utilise and extend the
life of both the cooking zones and the cookware.
• Avoid using the same cookware which has been
used on gas burners: the heat concentration on gas
burners may distort the base of the pan, causing it
not to adhere correctly.
