• For easier lighting, proceed before putting
a pan on the pan support.
• Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.
• Take care when frying food in hot oil or
fat, as the overheated splashes could
easily ignite.
• If you use a saucepan which is smaller than
the recommended size, the flame will
spread beyond the bottom of the vessel,
causing the handle to overheat.
• Prolonged cooking with potstones,
earthenware pans or cast-iron plates is
inadvisable. Also, do not use aluminium
foil to protect the top during use.
• Make sure pots do not protrude over the
edges of the cooktop and that they are
centrally positioned on the rings in order to
obtain lower gas consumption.
• Do not place unstable or deformed pots on
the rings: they could tip over or spill their
contents, causing accidents.
• Pots must not enter the control zone.
• If the control knobs become difficult to
turn, please contact your local Service Force
Centre.

• As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down
the flame so that it will barely keep the
liquid simmering.
