Environmental protection and saving energy
3 Environmental protection and saving energy
3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compat-
ible and can be recycled.
▶
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less energy.
Select the cooking zone to match the size of your
pan. Centre the cookware on the hob.
Use cookware whose base diameter is the same dia-
meter as the hotplate.
Tip:Cookware manufacturers often give the upper
diameter of the saucepan. It is often larger than the
base diameter.
¡
Unsuitable cookware or incompletely covered cook-
ing zones consume a lot of energy.
Cover saucepans with suitable lids.
¡
Cooking without a lid consumes considerably more
energy.
Lift lids as infrequently as possible.
¡
When you lift the lid, a lot of energy escapes.
Use a glass lid.
¡
You can see into the pan through a glass lid
without having to lift it.
Use pots and pans with flat bases.
¡
Uneven bases increase energy consumption.
Use cookware that is suitable for the quantity of food.
¡
Large items of cookware containing little food need
more energy to heat up.
Cook with only a little water.
¡
The more water that is contained in the cookware,
the more energy is required to heat it up.
Turn down to a lower power level early on. Use a suit-
able ongoing power level.
¡
If you use an ongoing power level that is too high,
you will waste energy.
Adjust the fan speed to the amount of steam pro-
duced during cooking.
¡
The lower the fan speed, the less energy is con-
sumed.
If cooking produces large amounts of steam, select a
higher fan speed in good time.
¡
The odours are distributed around the room less.
Switch the appliance off when you are not using it.
¡
Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation when cook-
ing.
¡
The appliance works more efficiently and with fewer
operating noises.
Clean or replace the filters at regular intervals.
¡
The effectiveness of the filter is retained.
Product Information according (EU) 66/2014 can be
found on the attached appliance pass and online on
the product page for your appliance.
Suitable cookware
4 Suitable cookware
Cookware that is suitable for induction cooking must
have a ferromagnetic base, i.e. it must be attracted by
a magnet. The base must also match the size of the
cooking zone. If cookware is not detected on a cooking
zone, place this on the cooking zone with the next
smallest diameter.
4.1 Size and characteristics of the cookware
To be able correctly detect the cookware, you must
take the size and the material of the cookware into con-
sideration. All cookware bases must be perfectly flat
and smooth.
Use Cookware test to check whether the cookware is
suitable. Refer to
→"Cookware test", Page20 for more details.
Cookware Materials Properties
Recommended cook-
ware
Stainless steel cookware in a sandwich
design that distributes the heat well.
This cookware distributes the heat evenly,
heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be
detected easily.
Ferromagnetic cookware made of enamelled
steel, cast iron or special induction cookware
made of stainless steel.
This cookware distributes the heat evenly,
heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be
detected.
Suitable The base is not fully ferromagnetic. If the ferromagnetic area is smaller than the
base of the cookware, only the area that is
ferromagnetic heats up. As a result, the heat
is not distributed evenly.
