Surface Cooking 13 using the wok stand (Accessory not included) The Wok Stand is designed to allow round-bottomed woks to be used. It is recommended that you use a 14 inch diameter (35.5 cm) or less Wok. It is recommended that you use the POWER burner with the wok stand for best performance. If properly positioned, the Wok Stand will not slide off the grate. ! Caution Always use potholders to remove the wok stand from the grate. Allow the wok stand to cool before removing. Do not set hot wok stand on surfaces that cannot withstand high heat; such as countertops. Be sure the Wok Stand is positioned correctly and stable before use to prevent hot spills and possible burns. To Properly Position the Wok Stand: With the grate in position over the burner, set the Wok Stand on top of the grate positioning the notches in the Wok Stand over the cooktop grate fingers (See Figure 1). NOTE The Wok cooking performance is best on the POWER burner. ! Caution Be sure to ALWAYS use the Wok Stand if the stability of the wok is uncertain. If cooking large amounts of liquid food without the Wok Stand, the wok may tip and spill over causing burns. Figure 1 Flat-bottom woks with large flat bottoms may also be used on your cooktop Surface Burner Grates without the Wok Stand (See Figure 2). Insure the stability of the flatbottom wok before cooking without the Wok Stand. If unstable, DO NOT use the flat-bottom wok without the Wok Stand. Round-bottom woks (with a support ring) should NOT be used (See Figure 3). The supporting ring was not designed for proper or stable use on the Surface Burner Grates.
