Using the hob correctly
Practical hints
The burners
To ensure maximum burner
efficiency, you should only use pots and
pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of
the burner used.
Triple Crown Burner
diameter 18-26 cm
Front Semi-rapid Burner
diameter 12-18 cm
Rear Semi-rapid Burner
diameter 12-22 cm
Auxiliary Burner
diameter 8-16 cm
• 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.
