■
Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible
when the appliance is in use.
■
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other.
The cooking compartment stays warm. This reduces
the baking time for the second cake. You can place
two cake tins next to each other in the cooking
compartment.
■
For longer cooking times, you can switch the
appliance off 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time and use the residual heat to finish
cooking.
Saving energy with the hob
■
Use pots and pans with thick, even bases. Uneven
bases increase energy consumption.
■
The diameter of pan bases should be the same size
as the hotplate. In particular, small saucepans on the
hotplate cause energy losses. Note that cookware
manufacturers often indicate the upper diameter of
the saucepan. This is usually bigger than the
diameter of the base of the pan.
■
Use a small saucepan for small quantities. A larger,
less full saucepan requires a lot of energy.
■
Always place suitable lids on saucepans. When
cooking without a lid, four times the energy is
required.
■
Cook with only a little water. This will save energy.
Vitamins and minerals in vegetables are preserved.
■
Switch to a lower heat setting in good time.
■
Use the residual heat. For longer cooking times, you
can switch the hotplate off 5-10 minutes before the
end of the cooking time.
