– 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. A
pan which is too small will be
unstable on the pan support. If the
pan base diameter is too large,
flames can spread out to the sides
and damage or burn the worktop,
wall claddings or surrounding units
and also parts of the hob. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable
for this type of damage.
– Remember when purchasing new
pans that manufacturers usually refer
to the diameter at the top of the pan
in their documentation.
– Any heat-resistant pans can be
used.
– Pans with thick bases are preferable
as these distribute heat more evenly.
With thin bases, there is a danger of
food overheating in places. Stir the
food frequently.

– Select pans which are suitable for
the burner they are to be used on. In
general: use larger diameter pans on
the large burners, and smaller
diameter pans on the small burners.
– Always place pans on the pan
support supplied. Pans must not be
placed directly on the burner.
– Place pans securely on the pan rest
to minimise the risk of tipping.
– Do not use pots or pans with legs,
e.g. dutch ovens.
