and provide information on disposing of your appliance.

Saving energy

▯
Choose a burner of roughly the same size as your
pan. Place the cookware in the middle.
▯
Use small saucepans for small quantities. Using a
large saucepan with little in it consumes a lot of
energy.

Always place suitable lids on saucepans. Cooking
without a lid consumes significantly more energy.
Use a glass lid so that you can see into the pan
without having to lift the lid.

Cook with only a little water. This will save energy
and preserve the vitamins and minerals in
vegetables.
