Keep the burner as clean as possible. If the ignition
sparkers are dirty, they will not light properly. Clean
them periodically using a small non-wire brush. Bear in
mind that the ignition sparkers must not suffer any
serious impacts.
An orange-coloured flame is normal. This is caused by
the presence of dust in the atmosphere, split liquids,
etc.
The kitchen will become hot and humid when this gas
appliance is used. You must therefore ensure that the
kitchen is well-ventilated. Either keep the natural
ventilation apertures open, or install an extractor hood.
If using the appliance intensively for prolonged periods
additional ventilation may be required, for example, by
opening a window; more effective ventilation may also
be required, for example, by increasing the hob's
ventilation, if possible.
If the burner flames are accidentally blown out, switch
off the burner operating control and do not try to relight
it for at least one minute.

woks, pans with a concave base, etc. A wok is cooking
vessel originating in China; it is a kind of deep, round,
lightweight pan with handles and a flat or concave base.
Food can be prepared in various ways in a wok: it can
be stewed, stir fried, cooked on a low heat, pan-fried, or
steamed. It could be said that woks serve as both as a
saucepan and a frying pan and, owing to their shape
and size, they can be used to cook quite large
ingredients.
When cooking with a wok, heat is diffused more
uniformly
and
accumulates means that food takes less time to cook
and also requires less oil, making it one of the quickest
and healthiest ways of cooking. Always follow the
manufacturer's instructions when cooking with a wok.
