CHOICE OF BURNER
(Fig.6)
Figure 6
The symbols printed on the panel above the gas knobs indicate the correspondence between the
knob and the burner.
The most suitable burner is to be chosen according to the diameter and volume capacity of the
container to be warmed.
It is important that the diameter of the pots or pans suitably match the heating potential of the burners
in order not to jeopardize the efficiency of the burners, bringing about a waste of gas fuel.
A small diameter pot or pan placed on a large burner does not necessarily mean that boiling
conditions are reached quicker.
