USING THE GAS SURFACE BURNERS

HOW TO SELECT FLAME SIZE

NEVER let the flames extend up the sides of the cookware for safe handling of cookware.

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat. When fast heating is desired, the flame size on a gas burner should match the cookware you are using.

Flames larger than the bottom of the cookware will not result in faster heating of the cookware and could be hazardous.

TOP-OF-RANGE COOKWARE

Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is recommended because it heats quickly and evenly. Most of the foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tightfitting lids when cooking with minimum amounts of water.

Cast-Iron:If heated slowly, most skillets will give satisfactory results.

Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating properties and is usually combined with copper, aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination metal skillets usually work satisfactorily if they are used with medium heat as the manufacturer recommends.

Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel of some cookware may melt. Follow cookware manufacturer’s recommendations for cooking methods.

Glass: There are two types of glass cookware—those for oven use only and those for top-ofrange cooking (saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat very slowly.

Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer’s directions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges.

USING A WOK

DO NOT use a wok support ring. Placing the ring over the burner or grate may cause the burner to work improperly, resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable standards.

Use a flat-bottomed wok

This can be hazardous to your health.

Only a flat-bottomed wok should be used.

We recommend that you use a 14-inch or smaller flatbottomed wok. Make sure the wok bottom sits flat on the grate. They are available at your local retail store.

STOVE-TOP GRILLS

DO NOT use stove top grills on your surface

burners. If you use the stove top grill on the surface burner, it will

cause incomplete combustion and can

result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards.

This can be hazardous to your health.
