Matching Pots & Pans with Elements, etc.
All elements,14,5cm (5 3/4”), are best used:
- With small pieces of cookware - but normally not smaller then 10 cm (4”);
-For slow cooking and simmering (sauces, creams, etc.);
-For cooking small quantities of food.
Minimum 10cm (3 15/16”)pots, maximum 25cm (10”) pots.
When cooking large quantities of food, it is always better to use a large diameter pot/pan covering the
element. Thus, better and more efficient heat distribution will be achieved and food will be cooked evenly.
When using a large pot/pan on the center element, the best results will be obtained if the pan covers the
whole circumference of this burner. If the cookware only covers a portion of the outer element - this element
consists of two concentric coils/elements - then the performance of the element will not be as efficient and
impressive.
CAUTIONS
- Always place your cookware in such a way that its center is aligned with the centre of the element.
- Avoid hitting the vitroceramic glass with cookware or any hard objects. The glass surface is highly
resistant but not unbreakable.
- Pick-up your cookware when moving them around. Do not slide them and avoid excessive rubbing of the
top, as this leave scratches and erase the markings
- Avoid using cookware with rough or deformed bottoms.
- Avoid leaving any metal cooking accessories, knives and forks, or metal objects on the cooktop. They
may get hot if left close to any heating element in use.
- Avoid storing flammable products in the cabinets under your cooktop.
- Never leave an empty pot/pan on an induction heating element, even when the element is turned OFF.
- Only use maximum power for boiling and frying.
- Never try heating up a closed can.
- Avoid preheating your non-stick pans (e.g. with teflon coating) at maximum heat.
- Avoid storing solid and heavy items in the cabinets above your cooktop. They may accidentally be
dropped and damage the glass top.
Your cooktop must never be used as a storage space or a surface for piling up of any material.
Do not connect any appliances to the plugs above or near to the induction cooktop; connection cable
insulation can melt if in contact with heat, and this may result in an injury and property damage.
