lillle spattering. It is also used to maintain a boil with
large quantities of food.

WOK COOKIMG
We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed wok.
flat-bottomed woks are available at your local retail
store.
Do not use woks which have support rings. Use of these
types of woks, with or without the ring in place, can be
dangerous. Placintg the ring over the burner grate may
damage the burnergrate and burner head. Also, placing
the ring over the burner grate may cause the burner to
work improperly resulting in carbon monoxide levels
above allowable current standards. This could be dan­
gerous to your health. See the Safety Section of this
manual. Do not try to use such woks without the ring.
You could be seriously burned if the wok tipped over.
