6. Environmental protection

6.1 Energy saving: induction hob

 Use proper cookware for cooking.
 Cookware with thick, flat bases can save up to1/3 of electric energy. Remember
to cover your cookware if possible; otherwise, you will use four times as much
energy!
 Match the size of the cookware to the surface of the heating plate. A cookware
should never be smaller than a heating plate.
 Ensure that the heating plates and the cookware are clean.
 Soils prevent heat-transfer. Repeatedly burnt-on spillages can often be removed
by products, which will damage the environment, only.
 Do not uncover the cookware too often (a watched pot-content will never boil!).
 Decrease the power level as soon as the desired cooking temperature is reached.
 Use pot-lids to shorten cooking times and save energy.
 Minimise the amount of cooking liquids or fat/oil to shorten cooking times.
 Select a high-power level when you start cooking. Reduce the power level when
your food has been heated up.
 For long cooking times: Switch off the cooking zones 5 to 10 minutes before you
will finish cooking. This saves up to 20% of energy.
 You can use the residual heat of the cooking zones for saving energy when
starting a new cooking procedure on a cooking zone which is still warm / hot.

6.2 Energy saving: extractor fan

 Switch off the extractor fan after cooking or use the delayed switch-off function
(equipment depends on model).
 The power level should always meet the intensity of the generated cooking
fumes. Use the highest motor speed or intensive speed
power level) to extract strong concentration of cooking fumes only. A lower
power level always means a lower energy consumption.
 Make sure there is sufficient supply air to allow the extractor fan to operate
efficiently and with low operating noise.
 In the case of a strong concentration of cooking fumes select a higher power level
early. Cooking fumes which are already distributed in the kitchen may require a
longer operation of the extractor fan.
 Clean the grease filter(s) regularly as clean filters will increase the efficiency of the
appliance.
