31. s wide variety of foods can be cooked on the hotplate and because a gas hotplate burner is so responsive the heat can be adjusted instantly There is no need to slide pans across the hotplate simply turn the burner off once cooking is completed Please note when the hotplate burners are in use a slight popping may occur this does not affect the performance The hotplate has two sizes of burners to suit different pans and types of cooking Therefore a variety of pans can be accommodated The minimum size of pan which should be used is 100mm 4 base diameter and the maximum is 250mm 10 base diameter The hotplate has been designed with safety in mind however normal care in use should be observed Do take care to avoid burns and scalds when reaching across the hotplate Pans with flat bases are more stable than those which are warped Saucepans with handles which are not excessively heavy in relationship to the weight of the pan are safer as they are less likely to tip Pans which are positioned centrally on burners are more stable than those which are offset It is far safer to position pan handles in such a way that they cannot be accidentally knocked When deep fat frying fill the pan onl one third full of oil DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO NOT leave the pan unattended In the unfortunate event of a fire leave the pan where it is and turn off all controls Place a damp cloth or correct fitting
