7.4 Saving energy
Follow all of the energy-saving tips to use the cooktop
with integrated cooktop extractor in an energy-effici-
ent manner.
When purchasing cookware, pay attention to the dia-
meter of the base. Usually the upper diameter of the
pot is given. The diameter of the base is often smaller.
Use pressure cookers. Due to the closed cooking
chamber and the overpressure, pressure cookers save
the most time and energy. The short cooking time
helps preserve vitamins.
Make sure there is sufficient liquid in the pressure
cooker. An empty pot which is still being heated can
lead to overheating. The cooking zone and the pot may
be damaged by overheating.
If possible, always close cookware using a suitable lid.
Choose a suitable size of cookware commensurate
with the amount of food you are cooking. A big pot
that is barely filled requires a lot of energy.
