Energy-saving advice
Always place the correct lid on cookware. Cooking with an
■
uncovered pan will result in a four-fold increase in energy
use. Use a glass lid to provide visibility and avoid having to
lift the lid.
Use cookware equipped with a solid, flat bottom. Curved pan
■
bases increase energy consumption.

Measure
Immediately remove spilt food using a glass scraper.
Only use cleaning products specifically designed for glass-ceramic hobs.
Do not use the hob as a tray or working surface.
Check pans.
Only use cleaning products specifically produced for glass-ceramic hobs.
Lift pots and pans before moving them around.
Immediately remove spilt food using a glass scraper.
The diameter of the pan base must match the size of the
■
hotplate. If not, energy may be wasted. Note: The
manufacturer normally indicates the pan's upper diameter.
This is normally greater than the diameter of the pan's base.
Choose cookware of a size suited to the amount of food you
■
are going to cook. A large pan that is only half full will use a
lot of energy.
Use a small amount of water when cooking. This saves
■
energy, and vegetables retain their vitamins and minerals.
Select a lower power level.
