Hints and tips
•
Do not overfill pans or they will boil over.
•
Do not use pans with very heavy handles,
which cause the pan to tip.
WARNING!
Place pans on the centre of the burners.
Position pans so the handles cannot be
accidentally knocked or overhang the
appliance. Lift pans on and off the pan
supports. Do not slide them across the hob
.
•
Do not leave accidental spillage on the hob
or removable parts. The spillage should be
wiped up and the parts washed and carefully
dried as soon as the hob, pan supports and
burner parts are cool enough to touch.
•
A flat-based Wok will stand stable on the pan
supports. If you use a round Wok with a
collar support, the collar must be the open
wirework type otherwise the performance of
the burner will be affected.
WARNING!
Take care to avoid burns and scalds when
reaching across the hotplate.
WARNING!
Take extra care when deep fat frying, do not
cover the pan with a lid. Do not leave a pan
unattended. If the pan catches fire, leave it
where it is and turn off all controls. Place a
damp cloth or a fitting lid over the pan to
smother the flames. Never put water on the
fire. Leave to cool for 30 minutes.
