Gaggenau VG 295 CA Manual De Usuario

The values in the settings table ser ve as mere 
guidelines, since more or less heat may be required, 
depending on the type and condition of the foods, as 
well as the size and fullness of the pot.

The high output causes grease and oil to heat up 
quickly. Don't leave food unattended while frying; 
grease can catch fire and burn the food.

The rear cooking zones should be used to prepare 
foods requiring longer cooking times.

For parboiling, frying and deep-frying large por tions, 
you should use the high-output burners or wok 
burners.

We recommend woks with a concave bottom. You can 
order a high-quality wok as a special accessor y (WP 
400 001)

For cooking, only use cooking oil that can be heated 
up, such as peanut oil, with the wok.

Cook the ingredients at high heat while stirring 
constantly, for not too long. The vegetables should 
still be firm to the bite.

It is advisable to use a flat ladle with a long handle, 
made of heat-resistant material, to stir and scoop out.

The following information will help you save energy 
and avoid damage to cooking vessels.

Pots with a diameter of less than 90 mm or greater 
than 280 mm (320 mm for wok burners) shouldn't 
be used. If you use larger pots, you must maintain a 
minimum clearance of 50 mm between the cooking 
vessel and surrounding flammable objects. A minimum 
distance of 50 mm must be maintained between the 
control knob or control panel and the pot or pan. The 
cooking vessel must touch the control panel.

Use cooking vessels of 
appropriate size for the 
particular burner.

Don't use small cooking 
vessels on large burners. 
The flame shouldn't come 
in contact with the sides of 
the cooking vessel.

Don't use any deformed 
cooking vessels that don't 
stand solidly on the 
stovetop. The vessels could 
tip over.

Only use cooking vessels 
with flat and thick bottoms.

Don't cook without a lid or 
if the lid is not on all the 
way. The majority of the 
heat is lost.
