Energy Saving; Cooking Guidelines - Pkm IN4-SH Bedienungsanleitung

Energy saving

❖ 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.
❖ You can use the residual heat of the cooking zones
starting a new cooking procedure on a cooking zone which is still warm / hot.
❖ The level 9 can only last for 10 mintutes, after that the zone will go down
automatically for saving energy .

6. Cooking guidelines

WARNING! Be very careful when frying, because oil and fat heat up
very fast especially when operating a high-power level. Extremely hot oil
and fat inflame spontaneously and represent a serious fire risk.
WARNING! NEVER try to extinguish a fire with water but switch off the
appliance and then cover flame (e.g., with a lid or a fire blanket).
Caution! Cooking utensils may become hot because of the heat
transferred by the heated food. Potholders or oven gloves may be needed
to handle such utensils.
NOTICE! Only use cookware which is suitable to be used on an induction
hob; otherwise, you will damage the appliance.
Depending on model.
