Lighting the burners
Using the electrical spark switch
Press the knob of burner you wish to light in
and turn it to the left to the -symbol. The
spark switch will generate
sparks and the burner will light automatically.
If the burner fails to light after repeated
attempts, check to ensure that the burner cap
is properly positioned. The gas flame can now
be smoothly adjusted from high to low.
Operating the wok burner
The wok burner is eminently suitable for stir-
frying food and for frying and grilling meat. In
addition, you can use this burner for boiling or
blanching large quantities.
Owing to the high heat output of the wok
burner, it is less suitable for simmering food
or preparing sauces.
Flame failure device
The flame failure device ensures that the gas
supply is closed if the flame goes out during
the cooking process.
Hold the control knob pressed in in the full
position for approximately 5 seconds.
The flame failure device will switch on.
Saucepans
Use
The recommended saucepan diameters for
the various burners are:
For the high-speed burner, minimum 24 cm.
For the standard burner, minimum 20 cm.
For the low-speed burner, minimum 14 cm.
For the wok burner (special pan),
minimum 24-26 cm.
Wrong:
A great deal of heat is
lost along the sides of
the saucepan.
Right:
The heat is evenly
distributed over the
base of the saucepan.
Tip:
Cooking without a lid or with the saucepan
partially covered causes a great deal of
energy to be wasted unnecessarily.
Clean saucepans absorb heat more efficiently.
