DON'Ts DOs
Do not place receptacles on
burners off centre. They
could tip over.
Do not use wide-based
receptacles on the burners
nearest to the controls.
When centred on the burner,
they could touch the controls
or raise the temperature in
the area. This may damage
the hob.
Do not place receptacles
directly on top of burners.
Do not use excessive
weights or strike the hob
with heavy objects.
Handle receptacles on
the hob with care.
Warnings concerning cooking:
Do not use receptacles
with uneven bases. They
lengthen cooking times and
increase energy
consumption.
Only use thick-,flat-based
saucepans, frying pans
and casseroles.
Do not cook without lids
or with lids only partially
covering receptacles.
You are wasting energy.
Always use lids.
Always place
receptacles in the
middle of burners.
Always place receptacle
on the pans support.
Make sure that the metal
grids and the tops of the
burners are correctly
positioned before using
them.
Do not use small
receptacles on large
burners. The flame
should not touch the
sides of receptacles.
Always use suitably sized
receptacles on each
burner. This helps avoid
excessive gas
consumption and prevents
receptacles from getting
tarnished.
Only use one recipient
per burner. Use the
extra mental grid on the
burner with three
flames.
