Fisher & Paykel GC901M - Manual (Page 16)

TO GET THE BEST OUT OF YOUR GAS COOKTOP FOLLOW THESE
SIMPLE SUGGESTIONS.
WARNING
Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes on the burners.
Do not use an asbestos mat or decorative covers between the flame and the saucepan as this
may cause serious damage to your Cooktop.
SAUCEPANS
Do not let large saucepans or frying pans overlap the countertop as this can deflect heat onto
your countertop and damage the surface.
Hold the handle of the saucepan to prevent movement of cookware when stirring.
Saucepans should have thick flat bottoms. Food in a saucepan with an uneven base will take
longer to cook.
Extremely heavy saucepans may bend the grate or deflect the flame.
Match the bottom of your saucepans with the cooking zone and be sure that they are stable.
This will give you the most efficient cooking.

Handy Hint
Test steaks to see if they are cooked by pressing with tongs, the less movement there is, the more cooked
the steak. Do not cut the steak to see if it is cooked, this releases juices and dries the steak out.
