SAFETY
GAS HOB
Do
• Always ensure that pan bases are dry
andatbeforeusingthemonthehob.
• Always position pans over the centre
of the heat zone, and turn the
handles to a safe position so they
cannot be knocked or grabbed.
• Always use pans which are no smaller
than 100 mm (4”), or larger than 250
mm (10”) in diameter.
• Limitthemaximumatbasedpan
diameter to 230 mm (9”) above the
wok burner, if two or more other
hotplate burners are in use at the
same time.
• Always match the size of pan to the
heat zone – do not use large pans
on small zones or vice versa.
• Always make sure that the burner
caps, rings and pan supports are cor-
rectly placed. This will prevent pans
becoming unstable while in use and
ensureanuninterruptedgasow.
Do Not
• Never use double pans, rim-based
pans, old or misshapen pans, or any
panthatisnotstableonaatsur-
face, including round bottomed woks,
directly on top of the pan supports
• Never leave cooking fat, or oil, unat-
tended.
• Never use commercial simmering
aids, or heat diffusers, as they create
excessive heat and can damage the
surface of the hob.
• Never use the hob for any other pur-
pose than cooking food or raising the
temperatureofuids.
• Plastic cooking utensils can melt if
they come into contact with a warm
hob. Never leave them close to, or on
top of the hob.
• Never leave any heat zone alight
without a pan covering it. This causes
arehazard.
• Never leave an empty pan on a heat-
ing zone.
• Never leave anything lying on the
hob.
• Never heat a sealed tin of food, as it
might explode.
• Never use the hob surface for stor-
age.
ENSURE WOK BURNER
SKIRT IS POSITIONED
WITH FEATURE
FACING THE FRONT OF
THE COOKER.
Important
Ensure the wok burner skirt is posi-
tioned with the feature shown in the
diagram below facing the front of the
cooker. Failure to do this will cause the
gas to burn incorrectly with an irregular
amepattern.
