The kitchen will become hot and humid when this gas
appliance is used.
You must therefore ensure that the kitchen is well
ventilated:
either keep the natural ventilation apertures open, or
install a ventilation system (extractor hood).
If using the appliance intensively for prolonged periods,
you may require additional ventilation (e.g. by opening a
window) or more effective ventilation (e.g. by increasing
the hob's ventilation, if possible).
If the burner flames are accidentally blown out, switch off
the burner operating control knob and do not try to relight
it for at least one minute.
Suitable pans
Wok pan
A wok is a cooking vessel originating in China; it is a kind
of deep, round, lightweight pan with handles and a flat or
concave base.
Food can be prepared in various ways in a wok: it can be
stewed, stir fried, cooked on a low heat, pan-fried or
steamed. It could be said that woks serve as both as a
saucepan and a frying pan and, owing to their shape and
size, they can be used to cook quite large ingredients.
When cooking with a wok, heat is diffused more uniformly
and gently; the intense heat which accumulates means
that food takes less time to cook and also requires less
oil, making it one of the quickest and healthiest ways of
cooking.
Always follow the manufacturer's instructions when
cooking with a wok pan.
