Environmental protection

Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in an
environmentally-responsible manner.
Environmental protection
This appliance is labelled in accordance with the
European Directive 2002/96/EU concerning used
electrical and electronic appliances (WEEE –
waste electrical and electronic equipment). The
guideline determines the framework for the return
and recycling of used appliances as applicable.

Tips for saving energy

Always use the right lid for the pan in question. Cooking
■
without the lid requires four times as much energy.

Use pots and pans with even bases. Using cookware with
■
uneven bases increases energy consumption.
The diameter of the base of your pot or pan should match the
■
size of the hotplate. In particular, if pots that are too small are
placed on the hotplate, energy is wasted. Please note:
Cookware manufacturers often specify the diameter of the
top of the pan. This is usually bigger than the diameter of the
base of the pan.
Use a small pan for small quantities of food. A larger, less full
■
saucepan requires more energy.
Use only a little water when cooking. This saves energy. It
■
also preserves vitamins and minerals in vegetables.
Switch to a lower heat setting as soon as possible.
■
Use the residual heat of the hob. For longer cooking times,
■
you can switch the hotplate off 5 - 10 minutes before the end
of the cooking time.

■
symbols at once. This allows you to wipe up spills on the
control panel.
Always keep the controls dry. Moisture reduces their
■
effectiveness.
