This is quite normal andwill disappear after a few minutes.Using the plate correctly• When cooking by electric, saucepans should have athick base and be perfectly flat in order to ensuretotal contact with the plate and, consequently, perfectconduction (Fig. 2).• Occasionally, saucepans have a thin bottom and theseloose their shape over a period of time. In this mannertwo of the qualities of the electric plate are lost: theeven distribution of heat and the saving of energy.Cooking time is also lengthier.• As regards the size of the saucepans: for best results,the plate and the saucepan should have the samediameter. The diameter of the saucepan may beslightly larger; a smaller diameter is not advised.• Never leave the plates on without a saucepan! Switchoff the plate just before the end of cooking time. Theheat accumulated by the plate will finish cooking thefood and save energy.When cooking with fats or oils maximum caremust be taken as these can self-ignite whenover-heated.Fig. 2
