Instructions (Cont.)

Cooking on the gas cooktop

The combustion products of Natural Gas and LPG contain carbon monoxide 
and carbon dioxide, which at certain levels will affect the environment. In order 
to avoid unnecessary energy use, it is  important to use appropriately sized 
pots and pans for each burner (Table 2). 

•  Make sure your pot/pan has a flat 

base (Fig. 14). 

•  Position your pot/pan properly on 

the trivets above the burners. Do 
not use saucepans that overlap the 
boundaries of the cooktop, otherwise 
heat may get deflected towards the 
cooktop or benchtop, which could
