ABOUTTHE WOK

(Available on models PSC484WK and P24WK)

A ventilating hood of adequate CFM ca- pacity vented to the outside of the house is recommended for installation above this cooktop or wok. For most kitchens with a wall mounted hood, a certified hood rating of not less than 940 CFM is recommended. The hood must be installed according to installation instructions furnished with the hood and local building code requirements.

DESCRIPTION

Your new Thermador Professional Wok‚ has a heavy cast iron burner typical of those used in restaurants.

BTU Output for the Wok Burner

HI is equivalent to 30,000 BTU / HR.

LO is equivalent to 10,000 BTU / HR.

Pilot Light Igniter

The igniter will spark and ignite the pilot light.

The pilot light will be on for about 45 seconds to 1 minute, then the safety valve opens and the burner lights.

FLAME DESCRIPTION

The burner flame color should be blue with no yellow on the tips. It is not uncommon to see orange in the flame; this indicates the burning of airborne impurities in the gas and will disappear with use.

The flame should burn completely along both sides of the burner tube.

If the flame is uneven, flutters, makes excessive noise or lifts, check to see if the burner ports are clogged. Use a straightened paper clip wire or needle to open the ports if they are clogged.Never use a toothpick; it could break off in the port.

Contact an authorized service technician if an inefficient flame persists.

When used with propane gas (LP), a slight pop may be heard a few seconds after the burner is turned off.This is normal and usually occurs after the wok has been on for awhile.

CONTROL KNOB

WOK

Control Knob

There are no fixed positions on the knob between HI and LO.

Press and turn the knob counter-clockwise to the LITE position.

An audible click will be heard as the igniter lights the pilot light.

When the burner ignites, adjust the knob to the heat setting.

PREPARING THE WOK PAN

1.The first time the wok pan is used,clean the surface with hot soapy water to remove the protective oil coating. Dry thoroughly.

2.Apply a light coat of vegetable oil with a paper towel to the entire surface, inside and out.

Do not use corn or olive oil.

3.Heat the pan on a medium setting until the surface turns golden brown, about 20 seconds. Cool.Wipe off excess oil.

4.Repeat this procedure several times to seal the pores of the metal. This prevents the steel from rusting and keeps the food from sticking.

5.Wipe off excess oil before using again or storing. Do not scour seasoned surface; scouring removes the protection.
