Instructions (Cont.)
• Only ever use the burners after placing pots and pans
on them. Do not heat up any empty pots or pans.
• Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes on the
cooktop.
• Preferably cover pots and pans with a lid to permit
cooking at a lower heat. When the contents start
boiling, turn the knob down to the LOW position.
• Always switch off the burner before removing the pot/
pan.
• Do not place anything, for example a flame tamer or
asbestos mat, between the pan and trivet as it may
result in serious damage to the appliance (Fig. 22-A).
• Do not remove the trivet and enclose the burner with
a wok stand as this will concentrate and deflect the
heat onto the cooktop surface (Fig. 22-B).
• Do not use large pots or heavy weights which can
bend the trivet or deflect the flame onto the cooktop
surface (Fig. 22-C).

• Make sure your pot/pan has a flat base so that it sits on the trivet properly
and does not rock (Fig. 21).
• Position your pot/pan properly on the trivets above the burners. Do not
use saucepans that overlap the boundaries of the cooktop, otherwise
heat may get deflected towards the cooktop or benchtop, which could
deteriorate these surfaces; see Fig. 21 for optimum placement.
