Safety of the burners:

All hotplate burners are secured in such a
way that the gas feed is interrupted when
the flame is extinguished.
This is done thermoelectrically.
If the hotplate burners are on, there is a
hissing noise.
Selection of the cooking pots and their
arrangement:
Incorrect!
Pot diameter too small.
Hotplate burner flame burns beyond the
bottom of the pots.
Pot projects over the edge of the built-in
hob.
– High gas consumption
– poor arrangement
