Notes regarding cookware
Tips for using a wok
Note: When you cook using a wok, place the wok ring
onto the pan support over the wok burner. Make sure that
the wok is stable on the wok ring when you are cooking.
We recommend using woks with a domed base. You can
order a high-quality wok as an optional accessory (WP
400 001).
When cooking with the wok, use only cooking oil that is
suitable for heating to high temperatures, such as peanut
oil.
Cook the ingredients at a high heat, while stirring
constantly. Do not cook them for too long. The vegetables
should be al dente.
For stirring the food and for taking it out of the pan, it is
best to use a shallow ladle with a long handle made from
a heat-resistant material.

Risk of injury!
The standard-output burner and high-output burner
are not suitable for use with the wok ring and a
wok. The wok is not stable and may overturn. Never
place the wok ring on the standard-output burner
or high-output 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
cooktop. 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.
