6.2 Practical hints for using the hob burners
For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption, use pans
with lids of suitable size for the burner, so that flames do not reach up
the sides of the pan (see point "6.3 Pan Diameters"). Once the contents
come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to prevent the liquid
from boiling over. When cooking, to prevent burns or damage to the hob
all pans or griddle plates must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob.
All pans must have smooth, flat bottoms. Take the greatest care when
using fats or oils since they may catch fire if overheated. If the flame
accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait at least 1 minute
before trying to re-light the burner.

Using the barbecue griddle 6.4
This griddle plate has a non-stick (Teflon) coating. The non-
stick film is very delicate and may be damaged if metal
utensils are used.
Use only utensils made from wood or plastic resistant
to high temperatures.
