Cooking Guidelines
Cooking Tips
• When the food is about to boil, reduce the power setting.
• Put down the lid would reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.
• Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
• Start cooking on a high power setting and decrease power setting when the food has
heated through.
Simmering, cooking rice
• Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 185℉/85˚C, when bubbles are just
rising occasionally to the surface of the cooking liquid. It is the key for delicious
soups and tender stews because the flavours develop without overcooking the food.
You should also cook egg-based and flourthickened sauces below boiling point.
• Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may require a setting
higher than the lowest setting to ensure the food is cooked properly in the time
recommended.

15
Searing steak
To cook juicy flavoursome steaks:
1.Rest your meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.
2. Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.
3. Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of oil into the hot pan
and then lower the meat onto the hot pan.
4. Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will depend on the
thickness of the steak and how cooked you want it. Times may vary from about 2
– 8 minutes per side. Press the steak to gauge how cooked it is – the firmer it feels
the more ‘well done’ it will be.
5. Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax and
become tender before serving.
For stir-frying
1. Choose a ceramic compatible flat-based wok or a large frying pan.
2. Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying should be quick. If cooking
large quantities, cook the food in several smaller batches.
3. Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
4. Cook any meat first, put it aside and keep warm.
5. Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the cooking zone to a
lower setting, return the meat to the pan and add your sauce.
6. Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated through.
7. Serve immediately.

Care and Cleaning
Cooktop Maintenance Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your
ceramic glass cooktop.
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply a ceramic cooktop cleaning cream
(available in most hardware, grocery, and department stores) to the ceramic surface.
Clean and buff with a clean paper towel. This will make cleaning easier when soiled
from cooking. Cooktop cleaning creams leave a protective finish on the glass to help
prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding pans on the cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop surface. These
marks should be removed immediately after the cooktop has cooled using cooktop
cleaning cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future use.
Cookware with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface.
Do not:
Slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop.
Use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on the
bottom;always use clean cookware.
Use your cooktop as a cutting board or work
surface in the kitchen.
Drop heavy or hard objects on the ceramic glass
cooktop; they may cause it to crack.

* Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is
cool. The glass surface could be hot from contact with hot cookware, burns may occur if
the glass surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently
* Do not use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your
health, and can chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.
* Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use an abrasive type cleaning
pad. Only use cleaning products that have been specifically designed for ceramic glass
cooktops.
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of cooktop cleaning cream directly to the cooktop. Use a clean paper towel
to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no
residue. Do not use the towel you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.
For heavy soil:
Apply a few drops of cooktop cleaning cream directly
to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-
abrasive cleaning tool, applying pressure as needed. Do
not use the pad you use to clean the cooktop for any
other purpose. If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a
metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree
angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop
cleaning cream and buff the surface clean.
* Aluminum foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop can damage the cooktop. Do not
use thin aluminum cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to touch the cooking zones
under any circumstances.
Hints and Tips

What to do
The cooktop cannot
Be turned on.
No power.
Make sure the cooktop is connected to
the power supply and that it is switched
on.
Check whether there is a power outage in
your home or area. If you’ve checked
everything and the problem persists, call
a qualified technician.

Some pans make
crackling or clicking
noises.
This may be caused by the
construction of your
cookware
(layers of different metals
vibrating differently).
This is normal for cookware and
does not indicate a fault.
Surface element
does not heat or
does not heat
evenly.
Incorrect surface control
setting.
Cookware is light weight or
warped.
Adjust power level setting.Use only flat,
evenly balanced, medium or heavyweight
cookware. Flat pans heat better than
warped pans. Cookware materials and
weight of the material affect heating.
Heavy and medium-weight pans heat
evenly. Because lightweight pans heat
unevenly, foods may burn easily.
