Things to Keep in Mind When Using an Electric Cooktop

The following are a few key points to keep in mind when using an electric cooktop.

• Always use flat-bottomed cookware to ensure even heat distribution.
• Allow the cooktop to preheat, as electric burners heat slowly than gas.
• Be cautious of residual heat, as the surface may remain hot even after the burner is turned off.
• Wait until the cooktop cools down before cleaning to avoid burns or surface damage.
• Clean up spills promptly, especially sugary substances that can etch glass surfaces.
• Use non-abrasive cleaners and soft cloths to avoid scratching the cooktop.
• Lift cookware instead of dragging it to prevent scratches on the surface.
• Match your pan size to the burner to ensure efficient heating and avoid heat loss.
• Avoid using oversized pots that can trap heat and damage the cooktop.
• Never use aluminum foil on the burners, as it can cause overheating or fire.
• Make sure your kitchen has the proper electrical outlet and voltage before installation.
• Keep flammable items away from the cooktop when it is in use.
• Use a fire extinguisher or baking soda for grease fires, never water.
• Regularly inspect your cooktop for wear and tear or damage to the surface.
