Using your gas cooktop
Matching cookware to burner
Use flat-bottomed pans, and make sure that they match your burner, as shown in the following
table. A small pot on a large burner is not efficient.
Diameters of pans which may be used on the cooktop
Burners Minimum Maximum
Semi-rapid 16 cm 24 cm
Dual
with only inner crown operating
12 cm 24 cm
with both inner and outer
crowns operating
26 cm 28 cm
Triple-ring wok 26 cm 28 cm
Maximum diameter for wok pans: 36 cm
Using the wok stand
Important!
Place the wok stand as shown.
Always use the wok stand for wok cooking. Using a wok without the stand may cause the wok to
tip or the burner to operate incorrectly.
Do not use the wok stand for ordinary, flat-bottomed saucepans.
Only use the wok stand on the dual or triple-ring wok burners.
The cooktop becomes very hot during operation. Keep children well out of reach.
