The highest (larger) flame settings provide the maximum heat that is available on
your range. This setting should be used for heavy cooking loads such as water boiling
and pasta cooking.
•
The flame should be regulated so that it never protrudes beyond the cookware.
Since the outer part of the gas flame is much hotter than the center of the flame, the
flame tips should remain under the base of the cookware. Protruding flame tips give
off unnecessary heat into the air and can damage pot handles and increase the risk
of burning.

narrow/tall ones.
