Information and tips regarding cookware
The following information and tips have been provided
to help you save energy and avoid damaging your
cookware.
Suitable cooking vessels
Pots with a diameter of less than 90 mm or more than
280 mm (320 mm for the Wok burner) should not be
used.
When using large pots, pay attention to keeping
to a minimum distance of 50 mm between the cooking
vessel and combustible surroundings. A minimum
distance of 50 mm must be observed between the
control knob / control panel and the pot or pan. The pot
or pan should not touch the control panel.

Use pots or pans which
are the right size for
each burner.
Do not use small pots or
pans on large burners.
The flame should not
touch the sides of the
pot.
Do not use damaged
pots or pans, which do
not sit evenly on the
cooktoop, they may tip
over.
Only use pots or pans
with a thick, flat base.
Do not cook without
using a lid and make
sure the lid is properly
fitted. This wastes
energy.
Always centre the pot or
pan over the burner,
otherwise it could tip
over.
Do not place large pots
on the burners near the
control knobs. These
may get damaged by the
high temperatures.
Place the pots or pans
on the pan support,
never directly on the
burner.
Make sure that the pan
supports and burner
caps are correctly
positioned before using
the appliance.
Pots or pans should be
placed on the cooktop
carefully.
Do not strike the cooktop
and do not place
excessive weight on it.
Do not heat a cooking
vessel (e.g. roaster, pan,
grill stone) on more than
one burner at the same
time. The resulting heat
accumulation will
damage the appliance.
