Notes
■
Only use the accessories specified.Do not line the
cooktop (e.g. with aluminium foil).
■
The burner and ignition plug must be clean and dry.
■
Only light the hotplates if the pan supports and all
burner parts are correctly fitted.
■
When one burner is ignited, an ignition spark will
also be generated at all the other burners.
■
Do not touch the ignition plug while the gas
appliance is being lit.
■
It is important to keep the appliance clean. If the
ignition plugs are dirty, this may cause ignition
problems. Clean the ignition plugs regularly with a
small, non-metallic brush. Take care to prevent the
ignition plugs from suffering any heavy knocks.
■
When the gas cooktop is switched on, the
electronics open up the gas supply, which produces
a short sound. This is normal.

anti-clockwise to the required heat setting.The burner
will ignite automatically.

flame monitoring. This prevents the flow of gas if the
burner accidentally goes out while it is in use (e.g. due
to draughts).

minute before you ignite the burner again.
