Uses, Tables and Tips Pans The better the pan, the better the results. • You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be as thick and flat as possible. • Pay particular attention when buying new pans to the diameter of the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim. • Pots with aluminium or copper bases can cause metallic discolouring on the glass ceramic surface, which is very difficult or impossible to remove.
Advice on Cooking with and without Automatic Warm up The automatic warm up function is suitable for: • dishes that start off cold, are heated up at high power and do not need to be continually watched when cooking on the selected heat setting, • dishes that are put in a hot frying pan.
Typical Heat Settings The information given in the following tables is for guidance. The heat setting required for cooking depends on the quality of the pans and on the type and quantity of food. Switch Setting Automatic Warm Up Time1) (Min.) 9 8 4.5 7 3.5 6 2.5 5 8.5 4 6.5 3 4.8 2 3.0 1 1.
Cleaning and Care Hob 1 Important: Cleaning agents must not come into contact with the hot ceramic glass surface! All cleaning agents must be removed with plenty of clean water after cleaning because they can have a caustic effect when the rings are next heated! Do not use any aggressive cleaners such as grill or oven sprays, coarse scourers or abrasive pan cleaners. 3 Clean the ceramic glass surface after each use when it is warm to the touch or cold. This will avoid spillages becoming burnt on.
