Tips on Cooking and Frying

3Information on acrylamides

According to the latest scientific knowledge, intensive browning of food, especially in products containing starch, can constitute a health risk due to acrylamides. Therefore we recommend cooking at the lowest possible 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 discolorations on the glass ceramic 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.

• If this appliance’s mains cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cable (type H05BB-F Tmax 90°C; or higher) or an equivalent type. The latter is available from the Customer Care Department.

A device must be provided in the electrical installation which allows the appliance to be disconnected from the mains at all poles with a contact opening width of at least 3 mm. Suitable isolation devices include line protecting cut-outs, fuses (screw type fuses are to be removed from the holder), earth leakage trips and contactors.

Sticking on the seal

• Clean the worktop around the cut-out area.

• Stick the single-sided adhesive sealing tape provided on the underside of the hob around the outside edge ensuring that it is not stretched. The two ends of the tape should join in the middle of one side. After trimming the tape (allow it to overlap by 2-3 mm), press the two ends together.
