Using your gas cooktop

Choosing a burner

Use flat-bottomed pans, and make sure that they match your burner, as shown in the following table. A small pot on a large burner is not efficient.

Diameters of pans which may be used on the cooktop

Burners	Minimum	Maximum
Auxiliary	12 cm (6 cm with grate)	14 cm
Semi-rapid	16 cm	24 cm
Triple ring wok	26 cm	28 cm
	Maximum diameter for woks 36 cm

Auxiliary burner grate

This grate is to be placed on top of the auxiliary burner when using small diameter pans, in order to prevent them from tipping over.

Figure 19b Correct placement of wok stand

Important!

Using a wok without the stand may cause the burner to operate incorrectly. Do not use the stand for ordinary, flat-bottomed saucepans.

The wok stand MUST BE PLACED ONLY over the pan support for the triple ring wok burner. The cooktop becomes very hot during operation. Keep children well out of reach.
