Always place a pan centrally on the
cooking zone before switching on the
appliance to save energy.
The cooking zone and the pan base
should be should be clean and dry.
This saves extra cleaning later on.
Take care before starting to cook
that there is no grit or sand on the
surface of the hob.
This would scratch the surface, espe-
cially if a pan was pushed across the
hob.
Do not use any pots or pans where
the base has ridges, a pronounced
edge or is poorly enamelled.
These could also cause scratches.
Do not push any enamelled objects,
such as baking trays or roasting
trays around on the hob surface.
These could scratch the surface.
Aluminium or stainless steel pans
with aluminium bases can leave
marks with a metallic sheen on the
ceramic surface.
Clean these away at the earliest oppor-
tunity using a special proprietary clean-
ing agent, (see Section on Cleaning
and Care).
Do not allow either solid or liquid
sugar or pieces of plastic or
alumium foil to get on to the cooking
zones when they are hot.
If this should occur, switch off the hob
and carefully scrape the sugar or other
residue thoroughly from the cooking
zone while it is still hot, using a shielded
scraper blade. Take care not to burn
yourself.
If this is allowed to cool before the hob
has been cleaned, the ceramic surface
will be susceptible to pitting or even
cracking.
