Adjust the flame height to suit by turning the knob counter-
clockwise (Fig. 2.3). On this range the low position is beyond
high, NOT between high and off. The 'LO' marks the low
position. This setting is ideal for simmering.
If a burner flame goes out, the burner will detect this, and
automatically relight. However, if there has been a large
spill or boil-over, we recommend turning the burner off and
cleaning the area, before relighting.
If a burner does not ignite within four seconds, turn off
the control knob and leave it for five minutes, before
relighting it.
Make sure flames are under the pans (Fig. 2.4). For safety
reasons, adjust the flames so that they do not extend beyond
the edge of the cooking utensil. Using a lid will help the
contents boil more quickly.
Turn pan handles so they don't extend over the edge of the
range or another burner, whilst it is on. Large pans should be
spaced well apart.
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 (Fig. 2.6). They will reduce burner
performance and could damage the grates.
Avoid using unstable or misshapen pans that may tilt easily
and pans with a very small base diameter e.g. milk pans,
single egg poachers (Fig. 2.7).
Igniting Cooktop Burners without Electricity
If there is a power failure the cooktop burners can be lit with
a match.
1.
Hold a burning match ½" from the burner head, keeping
your hand as far horizontally away from the burner as
possible.
2.
Push and turn the burner control knob to HI/lighting
position. As soon as the burner flame lights move your
hand away.
3.
Turn the burner control knob to the OFF position when
you have finished using it.
