Keep holding theknob pressed in to let the gas through to the burner for aboutten seconds.If, when you let go of the control knob, the burner goes out,then the FSD has not been bypassed. Turn the control knobto the ‘OFF’ position and wait for one minute before you tryagain, this time making sure to hold in the control knob forslightly longer.Adjust the flame height to suit by turning the knob counter-clockwise (Fig. 2.3). On this cooker the low position isbeyond high, NOT between high and off.If a burner flame goes out, turn off the control knob andleave it for one minute before relighting it.Make sure that the flames are under the pans. Using a lid willhelp the contents boil more quickly (Fig. 2.4).Large pans should be spaced well apart.Pans and kettles with concave bases or down-turned baserims should not be used (Fig. 2.5).Simmering aids, such as asbestos or mesh mats, areNOT recommended (Fig. 2.6). They will reduce burnerperformance and could damage the pan supports.You should also avoid using unstable and misshapen pansthat may tilt easily, and pans with a very small base diameter,e.g. milk pans, single egg poachers (Fig. 2.7).The minimum recommended pan diameter is 120 mm. Themaximum allowable pan base diameter is 260 mm.DO NOT use cooking vessels on the hotplate that overlap theedges.Wok BurnerThe wok burner is designed to provide even heat over a largearea. It is ideal for large pans and stir-frying (Fig. 2.8).For heating smaller pans, the aforementioned hotplateburners may be more efficient.You can remove the burner parts for cleaning; see ‘CleaningYour Cooker’. You should wipe the enamel top surface of thecooker around the hotplate burners as soon as possible afterspills occur. Try to wipe them off while the enamel is stillwarm.Note: The use of aluminium pans may cause metallic markingof the pan supports. This does not affect the durability of theenamel and may be cleaned off with a suitable metal cleaner.The Wok CradleThe wok cradle is designed to fit a 35 cm wok. If you use adifferent wok, make sure that it fits the cradle. Woks vary verywidely in size and shape. It is important that it sits down onthe pan support – however, if the wok is too small, the cradlewill not support it properly (Fig. 2.9).The cradle should be used on the wok burners only. Whenyou fit the cradle, check that the wok is supported properlyon a pan support and is sitting level in the cradle (Fig. 2.10).ArtNo.311-0001 Right pans gasArt No. 311-0003 Simmer aids ArtNo.311-0004 Tipping wokArtNo.311-0046 - Elan Wok burnerFig. 2.3Fig. 2.4Fig. 2.6Fig. 2.5Fig. 2.7Fig. 2.8Fig. 2.9Fig. 2.10
