Flame Height - GE ZGU36L4DD1SS Owner's Manual

Flame
height
The correct height of the flame mainly depends
on the size of the bottom of the cooking
utensil, the material of the cooking utensil, the
amount and vype of food and tbe amount of
liquid in the utensil.
For safe handling of cookware, never let the
flame extend up the sides of the cookware. Any
flame larger tban the bottom of the cookv_-are is
wasted heat and only serves to heat the handle.
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce
the heat.
• For safety reasons the flame must never
extend beyond the bottom of the cooking
utensil. Never allow flames to curl up tbe side
of the pan.
• Be vesT careful if tile pans have plastic
handles, as tbese large professional-size
burners can flame up on the outside of the
pan and melt or bubble the handles.
• Utensils which conduct heat slowly (such as
glass-ceramic) should be used with medium to
low flames. If you are cooking with a large
amount of liquid, a slightly larger flame can
be used.
