– 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(s) supplied. Pans must not
be placed directly on the burner.
– Wide, shallow pans are preferable to
tall, narrow ones. They will heat up
faster.

– 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.
– Any heat-resistant pans can be used
on a gas burner.
– Remember when purchasing new
pans that manufacturers usually refer
to the diameter at the top of the pan
in their documentation.
– 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.
– Use a pan lid whenever possible to
minimise heat loss.
