DISPOSING OF THE DEVICE
SAVING ENERGY
Everybody who properly
uses energy not only saves
money but also consciously
acts in aid of the natural
environment. So let’s save
electric energy by:
●Using proper cookware
Pots and pans with at and thick bottom
help to save up to one-third of electric
energy. Remember about the lid as
otherwise the consumption of energy
quadruples!
●Matching cookware to the size of the
hotplate
A cooking pot should neither be smaller
nor bigger than the used hotplate.
●Maintaining hotplates and pot bottoms
clean
Dirt obstructs the transfer of heat – heavily
burnt food residuals often can be cleaned
only with chemicals harmful to the envi-
ronment.
●Avoiding necessary “peeping into
pots”.
●Not using the plate near refrigerators
/ freezers
As the consumption of energy unneces-
sary rises.
