fast burner
Sautéing and frying, deep frying, blanching and boiling large
quantities are best done on the fast burner. This burner has
the highest output.
normal burner
The normal burner is highly suitable for stewing and
steaming, boiling average-size portions (for about four people)
and making a roux.
simmer burner
Preparing sauces, simmering and boiling can be done best on
the simmer burner. On its high setting this burner is large
enough for cooking food right thorough.
2-zone wok burner
Using the 2-zone wok burner, you can cook food at very high
temperatures. This makes this burner particularly suitable for
stir-frying in a wok.
Food is cooked very quickly when stir-fried. You should,
therefore, cut the ingredients into strips, slices or pieces in
advance. When the wok is hot enough, the ingredients which
take longest to cook go in the pan first, so that at the end of
the cooking time all the ingredients are ready at the same
time.
Use a good quality oil for stir-frying, such as olive, corn,
sunflower or groundnut oil. Just a little is enough. Butter and
margarine burn, due to the intense heat.
In addition to using the wok burner for stir-frying, you can
also use it for stewing, steaming and deep-frying small
quantities in the wok.

igniting
1. Turn the control knob to the desired position, somewhere
between fully open and the low position.
2. Push the control knob in fully and hold it in for
approximately 10 seconds (HG511M).
The burner ignites.
The burner will continue to spark as long as you hold the
control knob pushed in, even if the burner is lit (HG511MT).
If the burner does not ignite, check whether:
– the cap is on the burner properly;
– the burner is clean and dry.
adjusting
The burner is continuously adjustable between the high and
low settings.
