4.1. Use of gas burners
Ignition of the burners
The position symbol above each control
knob determines the burner that the knob
controls.
Manual Ignition of the Gas Burners
If your appliance is not equipped with any
ignition aid or in case there is a failure in
the electric network, follow the procedures
listed below:
For Hob Burners: Push in the knob of
the burner you wish to ignite and keep it
pressed while turning anticlockwise so
that the knob is in the ‘maximum’ position.
Continue pressing the knob and hold a
lighted match, taper or other manual aid
to the upper circumference of the burner.
Move the ignition source away from the
burner as soon as you see a stable flame.
Electrical ignition by control knob
Push in the knob of the burner you wish
to ignite and keep it pressed while turning
anti-clockwise so that the knob is the 90
degrees position.The microswitch under
the knob will create sparks through the
spark plug for as long as the control knob
is pressed. Press the knob until you see a
stable flame on the burner.
Flame safety device
Hob burners
Hobs equipped with flame failure device
provide security in case of accidentally
extinguished flame. If such a case occurs,
the device will block the burners gas
lines and will avoid any accumulation of
unburned gas. Wait 90 seconds before re-
igniting an extinguished gas burner.
4.2. Control of Hob
Control of the hob burner
The knob has 3 positions: Off (0), maximum
(big flame symbol) and minimum (small
flame symbol). Ignite the burner with the
knob in the maximum position; you can
then adjust the flame length between the
maximum and minimum positions. Do
not operate the burners when the knob is
between the maximum and off position.
OFF position MAX position
MIN. position MODULATE
After ignition, visually check the flames.
If you see a yellow tip, lifted or unstable
flames, turn the gas flow off, then check
the assembly of burner caps and crowns
once they have cooled. Make sure there in
no liquid in the burner cups. If the burner
flames go out accidently, turn the burners
off, ventilate the kitchen with fresh air and
wait at least 90 seconds before attempting
re-ignition.

To turn the hob burners off, Turn the hob
burner knob clockwise so that the hob
burner knob shows the ‘0’ position or the
marker on the hob burner knob points
upwards.
Your hob has burners of different diameters.
You will find that the most economical
way of using gas is to choose the correct
size gas burner for your cooking pan size
and to bring the flame to the minimum
position once boiling point is reached. We
recommend that you always cover your
cooking pan.
To obtain maximum performance from the
main burners, we suggest you use pots with
the following flat bottom diameters.Using
pots smaller than the minimum dimensions
shown below will cause energy loss.
