Pans – Pans made from any material can be used on a ceramic cooktop.

When heated, the base flatte[...]

Tips on saving energy – Use a pan lid whenever possible to minimise heat loss. Uncovered Covered – Select a smaller pan when cooking small quantities. A small pan on a small cooking zone uses less energy than a large, partially filled pan on a large cooking zone. – Use as little water as possible to cook with, and reduce the power setting onc[...]

Overheating protection Each cooking zone is equipped with overheating protection. An internal temperature limiter switches off the heating elements in the cooking zone before the ceramic surface overheats. Once the ceramic has cooled down to a safe level the heating will automatically switch back on again. Overheating can be caused by: – switchin[...]
