6.2 Practical advice for using the cooking hob burners 
 
For better use of the burners and lower gas consumption, use covered 
containers that are proportional in size to the burner to prevent the flame 
from licking the sides (see paragraph “6.3  Diameter of containers"). 
When water reaches the boiling point, lower the flame so that it doesn’t 
overflow. To avoid burns or damage to the hob, all recipients or griddle 
plates must be placed within the perimeter of the cooking hob. All 
containers have to have a flat and smooth bottom. When using fats or 
oils, be extremely careful that they don’t overheat and catch fire.  
If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait at 
least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner.
