Using the hob
General information about cooking
Never fill the pan with oil more than
one third of it. Do not leave the hob
unattended when heating oil.
Overheated oils bring risk of fire.
Never
attempt to extinguish a possible fire
with water!
When oil catches fire,
cover it with a fire blanket or damp
cloth. Turn off the hob if it is safe to do
so and call the fire department.
•
Before frying foods, always dry them well and
gently place into the hot oil. Ensure complete
thawing of frozen foods before frying.
•
Do not cover the vessel you use when heating oil.
•
Place the pans and saucepans in a manner so
that their handles are not over the hob to prevent
heating of the handles. Do not place unbalanced
and easily tilting vessels on the hob.
•
Do not place empty vessels and saucepans on
cooking zones that are switched on. They might
get damaged.
•
Operating a cooking zone without a vessel or
saucepan on it will cause damage to the product.
Turn off the cooking zones after the cooking is
complete.
•
As the surface of the product can be hot, do not
put plastic and aluminum vessels on it.
Such vessels should not be used to keep foods
either.
•
Use flat bottomed saucepans or vessels only.
•
Put appropriate amount of food in saucepans
and pans. Thus, you will not have to make any
unnecessary cleaning by preventing the dishes
from overflowing.
Do not put covers of saucepans or pans on
cooking zones.
Place the saucepans in a manner so that they
are centered on the cooking zone. When you
want to move the saucepan onto another cooking
zone, lift and place it onto the cooking zone you
want instead of sliding it.
Gas cooking
•
Size of the vessel and the flame must match
each other. Adjust the gas flames so that they
will not extend the bottom of the vessel and
center the vessel on saucepan carrier.
