An orange-coloured flame is normal. This is caused by 

the presence of dust in the atmosphere, spilt liquids, etc.
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 1 minute.

Table of cooking times

The table below lists the optimal heat settings and 

cooking times for various types of food. The information 

given applies when cooking four portions.
The cooking times and heat settings may vary 

depending on the type of food, its weight and quality, on 

the type of gas used, and on the material from which 

the cookware is made. To prepare this dish, stainless 

steel cookware was mainly used.
Always use cookware that is the right size and place it 

in the centre of the burner. You can find information

Use pans which are the 

right size for each burner.

Do not use small pans on 

large burners. The flame 

must not touch the sides 

of the pan.
Do not use damaged 

pans, which do not sit 

evenly on the hob. Pans 

may tip over.

Only use pans with a 

thick, flat base.
Do not cook without using 

a lid and make sure the lid 

is properly fitted. This 

wastes energy.

Always centre the pan 

over the burner, not to one 

side. Otherwise it could tip 

over.

Do not place large pans 

on the burners near the 

control knobs. These may 

be damaged by the very 

high temperatures.
Place the pans on the pan 

supports, never directly on 

the burner.

Make sure that the pan 

supports and burner caps 

are correctly positioned 

before using the 

appliance.

Pans should be placed on 

the hob carefully.

Do not strike the hob and 

do not place excessive 

weight on it.

Never use two burners or 

heat sources to heat one 

single pan.

Do not use grill pans, 

earthenware casserole 

dishes, etc. for a long 

period of time on 

maximum power.
