Practical tips for using the hob
For better burner efficiency and to minimise
gas consumption, use pans with lids and of
suitable size for the burner, so that the
flames do not reach up the sides of the pan.
Once the contents come to the boil, turn
down the flame far enough to ensure that
the liquid does not boil over.
To prevent burns or damage to the hob or
the counter top during cooking, all
cookware or griddles must be placed
inside the perimeter of the hob.
Limitations on griddle use
A few precautions are necessary if you wish
to use a griddle:
• The griddles should not exceed the
perimeter of the hob.
• Aluminium griddles with Teflon anti-stick
coating should be pre-heated for a
maximum of 5 minutes in order to avoid
damage to the appliance and the Teflon
coating. After pre-heating, place the
foodstuffs on the griddle to cook them;
do not exceed 40 minutes of total use for
the griddle.
• Do not use griddles or plates to cook or
heat food on the ultra-rapid burner
(UR3).
• If one of the burners close to the wooden
rear wall is an ultra-rapid burner (UR3),
leave a gap of 160 mm between this
wall and the edge of the griddle;
• Do not allow the burner flames to extend
beyond the edge of the griddle;
• Leave a gap of at least 160 mm
between the edge of the griddle and the
side wall;
• Do not place the griddle over more than
one burner at the same time;
• Never use the griddle for more than
40 minutes.
Cookware diameters:
• AUX: 16 - 26 cm.
• SR: 22 - 26 cm.
• UR2: 26 - 34 cm.
Always check that the control
knobs are in the (off) position
when you finish using the
appliance.
