Practical hints for using the hob burners
For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption:
use pans with lids and of a suitable size for the burner, so that
the flames do not reach up the sides of the pan (see
paragraph “6.4 Cookware diameters”). Once the contents
come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to ensure
that the liquid does not boil over.
If any liquid does boil over or spill, remove the excess from the hob. To prevent
burns or damage to the hob during cooking, all pans or griddles must be placed
inside the perimeter of the hob. All pans must have smooth, flat bottoms.
If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait at least 1
minute before trying to re-light the burner.
Take the greatest care when using fats or oils since they may catch fire if
overheated.
