Control of Hob 

Use of gas burners

Ignition of the burners
The position symbol above each control knob indicates 
the burner that the knob controls.

Manual Ignition of the Gas Burners

If your appliance is not equipped with an 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 it anti-
clockwise until the knob is in the ‘maximum’ position. 
Continue pressing the knob and hold a lit 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 it anti-clockwise until the 
knob is in 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 a flame failure device provide 
security in case of an 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.

Hob Controls

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’ positions.

After ignition, visually check the flames. If you see 
a yellow tip, lifted or unstable flame, switch the gas 
flow off, then check the assembly of burner caps and 
crowns once they have cooled. Make sure there is 
no liquid in the burner caps. If the burner flames go 
out accidentally, switch the burners off, ventilate the 
kitchen with fresh air and wait at least 90 seconds 
before attempting re-ignition.

To switch the hob burners off, turn the hob burner 
knob clockwise to the ‘0’ position or so that 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 avoid heat 
loss.
