be sure the wok Stand is positioned correctly and
stable before use to prevent hot spills and possible
burns.
To Properly Position the wok Stand:
With the grate in position over the burner, set the
Wok Stand on top of the grate positioning the center
of the Wok Stand over the center of the cooktop grate
fingers (See
Figure 10
).
Flat-bottom woks
with large flat bottoms may also
be used on your cooktop Surface Burner Grates
without the Wok Stand. Insure the stability of the flat-
bottom wok before cooking without the Wok Stand.
If unstable, DO NOT use the flat-bottom wok without
the Wok Stand.
Round-bottom woks
(
with asupport ring)
should
NOT be used. The supporting ring was not designed
for proper or stable use on the Surface Burner
Grates.
CAUTION
be sure to ALwAyS use the wok Stand if the stabil-
ity of the wok is uncertain. If cooking large amounts
of liquid food without the wok Stand, the wok may
tip and spill over causing burns.
USING THE SIMMER PLATE
The Simmer Plate has been specfically designed for
simmering and holding food at the lowest safe tempera-
ture. It can be used for cooking sauces long periods
of time, or melting chocolate. With the grate in position
over the burner, set the simmer plate on top of the grate,
centering the plate over the grate fingers (See
Figure 11
).
Then place the utensil on the simmer plate. The Simmer
Plate is to be used by setting the burner to its lowest
setting. The Simmer Plate is intended to be used for
simmering only. The Simmer Plate must be removed
when cooking.
CAUTION
Always place the simmer plate on the grate before
turning on the burner.
Always use potholders to remove the simmer plate
from the grate. Allow the simmer plate to cool
before removing. Do not set hot simmer plate on
surfaces that cannot withstand high heat; such as
countertops.
be sure the simmer plate is positioned correctly
and stable before use to prevent hot spills and
possible burns.
