sides of the cookware. Failure to comply may result

Make sure all burners are in their correct locations and
fully assembled before attempting to operate any burner.

Selecting a Flame Size
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you adjust heat. When
rapid heating is desired, the flame size should match the
