Hints and Tips
Saucepans for use on solid plates should have
several characteristics:
- They should be fairly heavy duty
- They should fit the heat area exactly, or be Good use
slightly larger for efNfEVERicient us smallere, .
- They should have a flat base to ensure good
contact with the plate.
This is particulary important when using pans
for high temperature frying or pressure
cooking.
As soon as liquid starts boiling, turn down the plate Bad use
control knob so that it will barely keep the liquid (Power waste)
simmering.
You can switch off the plate a short while before
you finish cooking, and the final stage will be
completed on the accumulated heat. Similarly,
stews etc. cooked in well covered saucepans cook
at lower temperature which is more ec onomical.
Ensure pans are large enough to avoid
liquids being split into the plates. Never
leave the plates on without a pan on them
or with an empty pan on them.
Take care never to lean or reach over a hot
electric plate. Always point pan handles
inward or over the work surface next to the
hob to avoid accidentally knocking over a
pan as you pass by.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat,
as the overheated splashes could easily
ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to
turn, please contact your local Electrolux
Service Cent re.
