To achieveoptimum cooking performance, usecookpots with flat bottoms, tightfitting

covers, and sized for the surfaceburner.

Thecooktopisequipped with different size of surface burners.

Flame size should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware.

This instruction is based on safety considerations. Adjusting thesize of the flame to fit

the sizeof the cookwarealso helps to save fuel.

Note:Do not allow large oookpots to extend over control knobs.Heat trapped between

largecookpots and control knob could possibly cause knobs to becomehot to the touch.

Important:Leave a minimum of 1-1/2" between sideof cookpot and surrounding

surfaces, such as countertop backsplash or side walls, to allow heat to escape to avoid

possible damage to theseareas.

• Aluminum cookware heats evenly and quickly. A slightly larger flame size can be

used. The flame can beadjusted so it comes to the edge ofthe cookware. However,

the flame should NEVER be adjusted so that it extends beyond thebottom of the

cookware.

• Stainless steel cookware with copper or aluminum cores heat evenly and fairly

quickly. The flame sizeshould be adjusted to extend only halfway between center

and edge of the cookware bottom for best results.

• Cast iron cookwareheats slowly.

• Check manufacturer's recommendations before using porcelain on steel, porcelain

on cast iron, glass, glass/ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookpots.

If the cookwareis covered, less fuel will be needed; therefore, arower flame size can

beused.

Note: Food will not cook any faster when more than the amount of heat needed to

maintain a gentle boil is used.
