If, when you let go of the control knob the burner goes out,
then the FSD has not been bypassed. Turn the control knob
to the OFF position and wait for one minute before you try
again, this time making sure to hold in the control knob for
slightly longer.
Adjust the flame height to suit by turning the knob counter-
clockwise
(Fig.2-3)
. On this cooker the low position is beyond
high,
NOT
between high and off.
If a burner flame goes out, turn off the control knob and
leave it for one minute before relighting it.
Make sure that the flames are under the pans. Using a lid will
help the contents boil more quickly (Fig.2-4) .
Large pans should be spaced well apart.
Pans and kettles with concave bases or down turned base
rims should not be used (Fig.2-5) .
Simmering aids, such as asbestos or mesh mats, are
NOT recommended (Fig.2-6) . They will reduce burner
performance and could damage the pan supports.
You should also avoid using unstable and misshapen pans
that may tilt easily, and pans with a very small base diameter,
e.g. milk pans, single egg poachers
(Fig.2-7)
.
The minimum recommended pan diameter is 120 mm. The
maximum allowable pan base diameter is 260 mm.
DO NOT use cooking vessels on the hotplate that overlap the
edges.
The French Cooktop
This is the cooking element preferred by professionals,
because of its great versatility.
One of its many advantages is that it recreates the type of
heat once provided by old cast-iron wood and coal burners.
Nothing better has been invented since!
The front of the French Cooktop should be level with the
front of the outer pan supports, with the ‘Falcon’ name at the
front.
The cooktop should only be fitted over the centre burner
(Fig.2-8)
. DO NOT try to use it over the outer burners.
Using the French Cooktop
Light the centre burner as described in the ‘Hotplate Burners’
section.
Turn on your French Cooktop before preparing your
ingredients, as a fifteen minute preheating time is
recommended.
The heat is evenly distributed, regular and constant. The
generously sized cooking surface provides variable cooking
temperatures.

CAUTION!
