hot plate.

1. For the most efficient operation of the hot plate, the pots and pans
that you use must be in good shape: having a solid base, the
bottom of pans should be flat and even for maximum heat efficiency.

should be 6 ½” to 7” and with a maximum cooking capacity of 1 ½
quarts.
3. Do not use the pots and pan of smaller diameter than the hot plate.
