According to the latest scientific research, intensive browning of food, especially
in products containing starch, may present a health risk due to acrylamide.
Therefore we recommend cooking at low temperatures and not browning foods
too much.
Cookware
• You can recognise good cookware from the bottoms of the pans. The bottom
should be as thick and flat as possible.
• Cookware made of enamelled steel or with aluminium or copper bottoms can
leave discolourations on the ceramic glass surface which are difficult or impossible to remove.
Energy saving
2Always place cookware on the cooking
zone before it is switched on.
2If possible, always place lids on the pans.
2Switch cooking zones off before the end of
the cooking time, to take advantage of residual heat.
2Bottom of pans and cooking zones should
be the same size.
