I'm so glad I was able to find a site to download my missing manuals. Very reasonable prices and they kept me informed about the process and I had my manual within less than a day. The only thing I wish was an option is a 100% English version with no spanish or anything. But overall great site.
The manual is complete with excellent quality! One suggestion, show number of pages and weather it is multi-lingual. The AD 600 Manuel is about 76 pages and over half is non English. This results in a larger print job than usually needed. Having this information, one could select the desired pages for printing.
This is an excellent handbook. We had no information on the appliance until we obtained this and are now able to use the appliance to its full potential. Strongly recommended.

Pans
The better the pan, the better the results. • You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be as thick and flat as possible. • Pay particular attention when buying new pans to the diameter of the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim. • Pots with aluminium or copper bases can cause metallic discolouring on the ceramic glass surface, which is very difficult or impossible to remove. • Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burred or damaged base. This can produce permanent scratching if the pan is slid across the surface. • When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly inwards (concave). They should never be bowed outwards (convex). • If you wish to use special types of pan (e.g. a pressure cooker, simmering pan, wok, etc.), please observe the manufacturer's instructions.

Energy saving tips You can save valuable energy by observing the following points: • Always position pots and pans before switching on the cooking zone. • Dirty cooking zones and pan bases increase power consumption. • Whenever possible always position the lids firmly on pots and pans to cover completely. • Switch off the cooking zones before the end of the cooking time to use the residual heat such as to keep foods warm or for melting. • The base of the pan should be the same size as the cooking zone. • Using a pressure cooker reduces cooking times by up to 50%.
