Practical advice on using the burners
To ensure the burners operate efficiently:
• Use appropriate cookware for each burner (see table)
so that the flames do not extend beyond the bottom of
the cookware.
• Always use cookware with a flat base and a cover.
• When the contents of the pan reach boiling point, turn
the knob to minimum.
