CHOICE OF BURNER
The symbols printed on the panel beside
the gas knobs indicate the correspon-
dence between the knob and the burner.
The most suitable burner is to be chosen
according to the diameter and volume
capacity of the container to be warmed.
It is important that the diameter of the
pots or pans suitably match the heating
potential of the burners in order not to
jeopardise the efficiency of the burners,
bringing about a waste of gas fuel.
A small diameter pot or pan placed on a
large burner does not necessarily mean
that boiling conditions are reached quick-
er.
