4.1 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
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' positions.
OFF position MAX position
MIN. position MODULATE
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.
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.
