Ensure that the size of
the cookware is suit-
able for the burner
size.
¡
Never use small cook-
ware on large burners.
¡
Ensure that the flame
does not touch the
sides of the cookware.
¡
Do not use deformed
cookware.
¡
Deformed cookware is
not stable on the cook-
top and may tip over.
¡
Use cookware with a
thick, flat base.
¡

a lid, a large amount
of the energy escapes.

cookware on the burn-
ers close to the con-
trols.

Handle the cookware
that is on the hob
carefully.
¡
Do not bang on the
hob.

Never use multiple
burners to heat up

from this will damage
the appliance.
