Using The Hob - Progress PAG 6430 E Notice D'utilisation

Using the hob correctly
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you
should only use pots and pans with a flat
bottom fitting the size of the burner used
(see table below).
• For easier lighting, proceed before putting
a pan on the pan support.
• Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.
• Take care when frying food in hot oil
or fat, as the overheated splashes
could easily ignite.
• If you use a saucepan which is smaller
than the recommended size, the flame will
spread beyond the bottom of the vessel,
causing the handle to overheat.

• Prolonged cooking with potstones,
earthenware pans or cast-iron plates
is inadvisable. Also, do not use
aluminium foil to protect the top
during use.
• Make sure pots do not protrude over the
edges of the cooktop and that they are
centrally positioned on the rings in order to
obtain lower gas consumption.
• Do not place unstable or deformed pots
on the rings: they could tip over or spill their
contents, causing accidents.
• Pots must not enter the control zone.
• If the control knobs become difficult to
turn, please contact your local Service
Force Centre.
• As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn
down the flame so that it will barely keep
the liquid simmering.
