Practical tips for using the hob
For better burner efficiency and to minimise
gas consumption, use pans with lids and of
suitable size for the burner, so that flames
do not reach up the sides of the pan. Once
the contents come to the boil, turn down the
flame far enough to ensure that the liquid
does not boil over.
To prevent burns or damage to the hob or
the counter top during cooking, all pans or
griddles must be placed inside the
perimeter of the hob.
Limitations on griddle use
A few precautions are necessary if you wish
to use a griddle:
• Use aluminium griddles, including those
with anti-stick coating, with dimensions
not to exceed 35 x 26 cm;
• Aluminium griddles with Teflon anti-stick
coating should be pre-heated for a
maximum of 5 minutes in order to avoid
damage to the appliance and the Teflon
coating. After pre-heating, place the
foodstuffs on the griddle to cook them;
do not exceed 40 minutes of total use for
the griddle.
• Do not allow the burner flames to extend
beyond the edge of the griddle;
• Leave a gap of at least 150 mm
between the edge of the griddle and the
side wall;
• Do not place the griddle over more than
one burner at the same time.
Cookware diameters:
• Auxiliary: 7 - 18 cm.
• Semi-rapid: 10 - 24 cm.
• Reduced rapid: 18 - 24 cm.
• Medium rapid: 20 - 26 cm.
• Large rapid: 20 - 26 cm.
Improper use
Risk of damage to surfaces
• Do not use cast-iron griddles.
