Pan size
–
Select the cookware to match the
burner:
large diameter = large burner
small diameter = small burner.
–
Using oversized pans may cause the
flames to spread out and damage
the surrounding countertop or other
countertop appliances. The proper
pan size will also improve efficiency.
–
Pots with a smaller diameter than the
grate(s) and pots that do not sit
securely (without wobbling) are
hazardous and should not be used.
Suitable pans
– Unlike pans used on an electric
cooktop, the bases do not need to
be even for good results.
– When buying pots and pans, keep in
mind that it is generally not the base
diameter but the upper diameter
which is specified.
–
Only use heat-resistant cookware.
–
Thick pan bases will give more even
results, as hot spots are reduced due
to better heat distribution.
Thin pan bases will conduct the heat
faster but not as evenly as thick pan
bases. Stir the food frequently to
prevent burning.
–
Do not use pots or pans with
edge-supported bases. between the
burner and the base of the wok pan
above it.
Pan placement
–
Always place the cookware on the
grate. The cookware must not be
placed directly on the burner.
–
Position the cookware on the grate
so that it cannot tip over. A minimum
amount of wobbling can never be
completely ruled out.
Wok ring
For added stability, especially for wok
pans with round bases, use the wok
ring (supplied).
Make sure the wok ring is properly in
place, so that it won't move around.
(See illustration.)
Trivet
The trivet must be used on the
double-insert super burner, if using
–
very small cookware. Prevents it from
tipping over.
–
very large cookware. Using the insert
will prevent the flames from
spreading, causing the cooktop to
discolor and the surrounding
countertop to be damaged.
