Gas burners
It is essential to ensure that all the burner parts and pan
supports are correctly installed for the appliance to work
correctly. Do not swap the burner caps around.

main switch indicator lights ups.
2.
Press the chosen burner control knob and turn it
anticlockwise to the maximum power setting.
While the control knob is still pressed down, sparks are
produced on all burners. The flame ignites.
3.
Release the control knob.

If it does not come on, turn the control knob to the off setting
and repeat the steps above. This time, press and hold the
control knob for longer (up to 10 seconds).

If after 15 seconds the flame does not ignite, switch off the
burner and open a nearby window or door. Wait at least one
minute before trying to switch the burner back on.
Note:
If no burner turns on after pressing the main switch, the
appliance automatically turns off after one minute.
