For best efficiency and to ensure utensil handle does
not overheat, place the utensil centrally on the burner
and adjust the flame height so all the flame remains
under the utensil.
NOTE: Enclosure may be circular or square
Do not place anything, eg. flame tamer, asbestos mat, between pan and
pan support as serious damage to the appliance may result.
Do not remove the pan support and enclose the burner with a wok stand
as this will concentrate and deflect heat onto the hotplate.
Do not use large pots or heavy weights which can bend the pan support
or deflect flame onto the hotplate.
Locate pan centrally over the burner so that it is stable and does not
overhang the appliance.
Use only a wok support supplied or recommended by the manufacturer of
the appliance.
