Environmental protection
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly
manner.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used
electrical and electronic appliances (waste
electrical and electronic equipment - WEEE). The
guideline determines the framework for the return
and recycling of used appliances as applicable
throughout the EU.
Tips for saving energy
▯ Always use a correctly fitting lid for the
pan.Cooking without the lid requires four times as
much energy. A glass lid allows you to observe
the cooking without having to lift the lid off.
▯ Use pots and pans with level bases. Using
cookware with unlevel bases increases energy
consumption.
▯ The diameter of the base of your pot or pan
should match the size of the hotplate. In
particular, if pots that are too small are placed on
a hotplate, energy is wasted. Please note:
Cookware manufacturers often specify the
diameter of the top of the pan. This is usually
bigger than the diameter of the base of the pan.
▯ Use a small pan for small quantities of food. A
large saucepan containing little food requires
more energy.
▯ Use only a little water when cooking. This will
save energy. It also preserves vitamins and
minerals in vegetables.
▯ Switch to a lower heat setting as soon as
possible.
▯ Use the residual heat of the hob. For longer
cooking times, you can switch the hotplate off as
early as 5 - 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time.
