Before Using Your New Ceramic Hob
• Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety Warnings’ section.
• Remove any protective film that may still be on your ceramic hob.
Choosing the Right Cookware
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is the same size as the cooking
zone. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the ceramic hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
• Occasionally the heated areas may be seen to switch on and off when higher heat settings are
used. This is due to a safety device, which prevents the glass from overheating. Some switching on
and off when cooking at high temperatures, e.g. deep fat frying is quite normal, causes no damage
to the hob and little delay in cooking times. Excessive switching may however be caused by the
use of an unsuitable saucepan or a saucepan which is smaller than the heated area. If excessive
switching occurs, discontinue the use of the saucepan.
• To improve performance, and reduce energy, always use pans with close fitting lids.
