Practical advice for using the burners
For better burner performance and minimum gas
consumption, flat bottomed, even pans must be
used, with covers and proportional in size to the
burners (see paragraph “7.3 Diameter of the
pans”).
To avoid overcooking or damage to the surface top
or to the glass (where available) while cooking, all
pans or griddles must be positioned within the
cooking hob perimeter and must be a minimum
distance of 3-4 cm from the knobs.
Take care not to touch the glass of the lid with hot pots and pans.
The glass might crack due to the heat.

Using a griddle plate
A few precautions are necessary if you wish to use a griddle plate:
•
leave a gap of at least 160 mm between the edge of the griddle
plate and the side wall;
•
if one of the burners close to the wooden rear wall is of triple flame
type, leave a gap of at least 160 mm between this wall and the edge
of the griddle plate;
•
do not allow the burner flames to extend beyond the edge of the
griddle plate;
•
operate the burners underneath the griddle plate for 10 minutes at
maximum power, then turn them down to the minimum setting.
Never use the griddle plate for more than 45 minutes.
