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.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly
manner.
