Cookware
Pan size
–Set the combiset to a high flame when using a large diameter pan and low flame when using a small diameter pan.
–Generally, wide / shallow pans will heat up quicker and cook more evenly than narrow / tall ones.
–Using oversized pans may cause the flames to spread out and damage the surrounding countertop or other countertop appliances.
–Do not use small pans with high flame settings, the flame may climb the sides of the pan.
–Pots with a smaller diameter than the burner grates and pots that do not sit securely (without wobbling) are hazardous and should not be used.
The burner grates supplied with the appliance must always be used. Never place a pan on the burner by itself.
Suitable pans
Any heat resistant pan can be used on a gas burner.
Unlike pans used on an electric combiset, the bases do not need to be even for good results.
Thick pan bases will give more even results, hot spots are reduced due to better heat distribution.
Thin pan bases will conduct the heat faster but not as evenly as thick pan bases. Stir the food frequently to prevent burning.
Whenever possible, keep pots and pans covered while cooking. This helps keep in the most possible heat.
