7Environmental protection
I n this section, you can find information about saving
E n v i r o n m e n t a l p r o t e c t i o n
energy and disposing of the appliance.
Energy-saving tips
Always place suitable lids on saucepans. When
■
cooking without a lid, considerably more energy is
required. A glass lid means that you can see inside
without having to lift the lid.
Use pots and pans with even bases. Uneven bases
■
increase energy consumption.
The diameter of pot and pan bases should be the
■
same size as the hotplate. In particular, small
saucepans on the hotplate cause energy losses.
Please note: cookware manufacturers often indicate
the upper diameter of the saucepan. This is usually
bigger than the diameter of the base of the pan.
Use a small saucepan for small quantities. A larger,
■
less full saucepan requires a lot of energy.
Cook with only a little water. This will save energy.
■
Vitamins and minerals in vegetables are preserved.
Always cover as large an area of the hotplate as
■
possible with your saucepan.
Switch to a lower heat setting in good time.
■
Select a suitable ongoing cooking setting. You will
■
waste energy by using an ongoing cooking setting
which is too high.
Use the residual heat of the hob. For longer cooking
■
times, you can switch the hotplate off 5-10 minutes
before the end of the cooking time.

manner.
