to use appropriately sized pots and pans for each burner
(Fig. 3a).

• Only use cookware with a thick, flat base so that it sits on
the trivet properly and does not rock. Do not use a pan
with a convex or concave base (Fig. 3b).

• Position your pot/pan properly on the trivet above the burners. Do not place cookware on one side of a
burner as it could tip over (Fig. 3c).
• Adjust the flame height so it evenly heats the underside of the pot/pan (Fig. 3d). The flame should never
come up the sides of the cookware as this will waste gas and possibly cause damage to the cookware
handle.
• Do not use saucepans that overlap the boundaries of the cooktop, otherwise heat may get deflected
towards the cooktop or benchtop, which could deteriorate these surfaces.
• The three symbols on the glass cooktop surface warn
you:
* NOT to place anything, for example a flame tamer or
asbestos mat, between the pan and trivet (Fig. 4a).
* NOT to remove the trivet and enclose the burner with
a wok stand (Fig. 4b)
* NOT to use large, heavy pots or place heavy weights
on the cooktop (Fig. 4c).
