Save energy!
• Putting a lid on pans cuts the amount of energy
used by half (compared to cooking without lids).
• Using pans with flat bases saves 25% energy
(compared to uneven based pans).
• Make sure the hob is clean and dry. Dirt and mois-
ture reduce heat transfer between pans and hotplates.
• Turn the hotplates off and finish cooking using the
remaining heat.
• Save energy by steaming and pressure-cooking.

Cleaning the ceramic hob

Use the scraper supplied to remove spillages
immediately, while the hob is still hot, especially
sugar and foods with a high sugar content (e.g.
jam), melted plastics and foil, all of which can
damage the hob if left.
IF THE HOB IS VERY SOILED
Remove soilage using the razor blade scraper (see
1
below).
Use the hob cleaner supplied when the hot-hob warning
2
lights have all gone out. Shake the bottle and apply a
small quantity of cleaner directly onto the hob. Rub
clean using a damp cloth or paper towels.
Use a damp cloth to remove all remaining traces of the

cleaner, which could otherwise burn on when the hob is
next used. Wipe the hob dry.
The razor blade scraper:

the scraper is not being used.
