over will burn onto the hot cooking zone. Advice and hints for using the cooking zones If you use the advice below you will save energy and make your cleaning tasks easier. Saucepans with very shiny/bright bases will prolong the cooking time slightly compared with cooking utensils with matt/dark bases. Adjust the cooking zones correctly. Select the highest setting for the cooking zones until the food is brought to the boil. Then reduce the setting as far as possible, without the food going off the boil.
Check whether your cooking utensils has level bases by placing the item in question upside down on a work top and positioning a ruler on the base. A curved base, both inwards and outwards, will prolong the cooking time and increase the energy consumption. If the diameter of the base is too small, the energy consumption will increase, and any food boiling over will burn onto the hot cooking zone.
Cleaning and maintenance of For reasons of hygiene and safety, the cooking zones must be kept clean. Grease stains and spilled food generate smoke when heated, and can even cause fire.
