Pans and kettles with concave bases or down turned base
rims should not be used (Fig. 2.5).
Simmering aids, such as asbestos or mesh mats, are NOT
recommended. They will reduce burner performance and
could damage the pan supports (Fig. 2.6).
You should also avoid using unstable and misshapen pans
that may tilt easily, and pans with a very small base diameter,
e.g. milk pans, single egg poachers (Fig. 2.7).
The minimum recommended pan diameter is 120mm. The
maximum allowable pan base diameter is 250mm.
Wok Ring Burner
The wok ring burner is designed to provide even heat over a
large area. It is ideal for large pans and stir frying. For heating
smaller pans, the smaller hotplate burners may be more
efficient.
Woks vary very widely in size and shape. It is important that
the wok sits down on the pan support – however, if the wok is
too small, the cradle will not support it properly (Fig. 2.8).
The cradle should be used on the wok burner only. When you
fit the cradle, make sure that it is supported properly on a pan
support and the wok is sitting level in the cradle (Fig. 2.9)..
The cradle will get very hot in use
Hob Care
The burner parts can be removed for cleaning; see 'Cleaning
your hob' .
You should wipe the top surface of the hob around the
hotplate burners as soon as possible after spills occur. Try to
wipe any spills off while the hob is still warm.
NOTE: The use of aluminium pans may cause metallic
marking of the pan supports. This does not affect the
durability of the enamel and may be cleaned off with an
appropriate metal cleaner.
