CHOICE OF THE BURNER
On the control panel, near every knob there is a diagram that indicates which burner is
controlled by that knob.
The suitable burner must be chosen according to the diameter and the capacity used.
The burners and pans must be used in accordance with the following instructions:

It is important that the diameter of the pot be suitable to the potentiality of the burner so as
not to compromise the high output of the burners and therefore energy waste.
A small pot on a large burner does not give you a boiling point in a shorter amount of time
since the capacity of heat absorption of a liquid mass depends on the volume and the
surface of the pot.
CAUTION:
Make sure the pans are central to the burner for maximum stability and greater
efficiency.
Make sure the pans are not in contact with the control knobs, otherwise the flame could
overheat the knobs and permanently damage them.
