the knob towards it after the contents of a pan have boiled

Make sure flames are under the pans. For safety reasons,
adjust the flames so that they do not extend beyond the
edge of the cooking utensil. This instruction is based on
safety considerations (Fig.2-5).
Pans and kettles with concave bases or down turned base
rims should not be used (Fig.2-6).
Simmering aids, such as asbestos or mesh mats, are NOT
recommended. They will reduce burner performance and
could damage the grates (Fig.2-7).
Avoid using unstable or misshapen pans that may tilt easily
and pans with a very small base diameter e.g. milk pans,
single egg poachers (Fig.2-8).
The minimum pan diameter recommended is 12cm for the
outer burners and 16cm for the centre burner.
DO NOT use cooking vessels that may overlap the edges of
the hotplate.
If after lighting, a cooktop burner's flame goes out, turn it off
and leave it for one minute before relighting it.
Igniting Cooktop Burners without Electricity
If there is a power failure the cooktop burners can be lit with
a match.
1. Hold a burning match 1cm from the burner head,
keeping your hand as far horizontally away from the
burner as possible.
2. Push and turn the burner control knob to solid flame
position. As soon as the burner flame lights move your
hand away. With your other hand, keep holding the
knob pressed for a few seconds so that the burner safety
device can 'sense' the heat of the flame.
3. Turn the burner control knob to the OFF position when
you have finished using it.
Cleaning
You can remove the burner head for cleaning; see the
'Cleaning your Range' section of these instructions.
Note: You should wipe the top surface of the range around
the cooktop burners as soon as possible after spills occur.
Note: Use of aluminium pans may cause metallic marking of
the grates. This does not affect the durability of the enamel
and may be cleaned off with a metal polish.
Before using for the first time, to dispel manufacturing odors
turn the oven to 240°C in Fan Assisted mode and run for one
hour. To clear the smell make sure the room is well ventilated
to the outside air, by opening windows for example or
turning on your ventilation hood.
During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken
to avoid touching the heating elements inside the oven.
