Electric hobs
Before using the hob for the first time, heat it up for 5
minutes, set to full power, with no pans placed on it. At
this point it is normal to notice smoke and odours, but
these will disappear over time. Do not operate the hobs
without placing pans on top, except during this initial
heating phase.
It is recommended to start cooking on full power and,
depending on the quantity and quality of food, later switch
to an intermediate setting for the remaining cooking time.
Taking advantage of the hob's thermal inertia, you can
switch the hob off shortly before you finish cooking. This
will save energy, as you can continue cooking using the
residual heat.
Use pans with bottoms which are thick and perfectly flat.
Make sure that the size of the pan used is similar to that
of the heating element, never smaller.
Do not allow liquids to be spilt on the surface of the hob
and do not use wet pans on the hob.
If prolongued use has worn away the surface of the
electrical hot plates, sprinkle them with a few drops of oil
or other manteinance products that are widely available.
