Choice of burner
The burner must be chosen according to the diameter of the pans and energy
required.
Burners
Semi-rapid
Triple-ring
Dual
Wok pans
Saucepans with handles that are excessively heavy in relation to the weight of the pan
are less safe as they are more likely to tip.
Pans which are positioned centrally on burners are more stable than those which are
offset.
It is far safer to position the pan handles in such a way that they cannot be accidentally
knocked.
When deep fat frying fill the pan only one third full of oil.
DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO NOT leave the pan unattended.
In the unfortunate event of a fire, leave the pan where it is and turn off all controls.
Place a damp cloth or correct fitting lid over the pan to smother the flames.
DO NOT use water on the fire.
Leave the pan to cool for at least 30 minutes.

do not use pans with concave or convex bases
