- Select cookware that fits the size of
the burner:
large diameter = large burner
small diameter = small burner
- Refer to the chart above and ensure
that the pan diameter falls within the
minimum and maximum diameters
given for the burner you are using.
Using cookware that is too large can
cause the flames to spread out and
damage or burn the worktop, wall
claddings or surrounding units and
also parts of the cooktop or other
appliances. Using pans of the correct
size improves efficiency.
Any cookware that has a diameter
smaller than the pan supports or that
does not rest safely (without
wobbling) on the pan supports is
dangerous and should not be used.
- A wok burner is particularly suitable
for wok pans. Do not allow the base
of the wok pan to come into contact
with the burner. There must be a gap
of at least 1 cm between the burner
and the base of the pan.
- Unlike pans that are used on an
electric cooktop, the bottom of pans
used on a gas cooktop do not have
to be flat to deliver good cooking
results.
- Remember when purchasing new
pans that manufacturers usually refer
to the diameter at the top of the pan
in their documentation.
- Any heat-resistant cookware can be
used on a gas burner.
