Tips for reducing energy consumption
and increasing efficiency
The new appliance is exceptionally efficient and
economical with energy. Some tips follow below for
making your appliance even more energy-efficient
and efficient.
− Choose a cooking zone that matches the size of
the pan. The bottom of the pan should cover the
cooking zone as much as possible.
− Make sure the pan is always in the centre of the
cooking zone.
− Use cookware with a base diameter that matches
the diameter of the cooking zone.
− Place lids on pans. This prevents unnecessary
heat escaping and reduces cooking fumes and
condensation.
− Use pans with flat bottoms. A pan with a non-flat
bottom consumes more energy.
− Use cookware that matches the amount of food.
A small pan requires less energy than a large, not-
quite-full pan.
− Use as little water as possible. The more water in
the pan, the more energy is needed to heat it up.
− After boiling or frying, switch back to a lower power
setting in time to reduce energy consumption and
to limit overproduction of vapours.
− Position your cookware in such a way that rising
vapours reach the extraction surface of the fan
− Turn on the appliance's fan at the lowest speed when
you start cooking to control humidity and eliminate
cooking odours.
− Increase the appliance's fan speed only when the
amount of cooking vapour requires it.
− Use the highest fan speed only when absolutely
necessary.
− If a lot of cooking vapour is released, switch to a higher
fan speed in time. This is more efficient than trying
to catch vapour that has already spread throughout
the kitchen by using the appliance for a long time.
− Use the delay mode if the appliance has one. Do
not let the appliance ventilate unnecessarily after
cooking.
− Keep the appliance filter/filters clean to optimise
grease and odour filtering efficiency.
− Ensure adequate air supply in the room, so that the
appliance can operate efficiently and economically.
− Avoid any draught above the cooking surface for
efficient operation.
