FOR THE COOKTOP
For best results and energy efficiency, only use pans suitable for electric cooking.
The bottom of the pan must be thick and flat. Before placing it on the hotplate, make sure that
the pan and the hotplate are clean and dry.
To avoid scratching the ceramic glass surface, never use cast-iron pans or pans with a rough
bottom.
To avoid wasting energy, make sure that the diameter of the pan bottom is 20mm bigger than
the circle marked on the hotplate.
FOR THE OVEN
The oven offers a wide range of settings which allows you to cook any type of food in the best way
possible. With time and experimentation, you will learn the heat settings, cooking modes, and
shelf heights that will deliver you the results that best matches your cooking style. The advice
given below is a guideline only which may be varied according to your personal experience.
Pre-Heating of Oven
If the oven needs to be preheated, the convection mode or
baking
mode
should be selected. These are the most efficient modes, which will reach the desired temperature
as quickly as possible using the least amount of energy. Once the oven has been pre heated and
the cooking mode selected, the food should be placed in the oven.
Multi-Shelf Cooking
If you want to cook food on several shelves, select the “Baking (Fan Forced)” mode .
This is the only mode that allows you to cook on multi-shelves at the same time. When cooking
delicate foods on more than one shelf, use “Baking Mode” , as this allows you to cook on three
shelves.
