GAS BURNERS (Auxiliary, Semi-rapid, Rapid and Triple ring)
Gas flow to the burners is adjusted by turning the knobs (illustrated in fig. 27a) which
control the valves.
Turning the knob, so that the indicator on itself points to the symbols printed on the control
panel, achieves the following functions:

■
The maximum aperture position permits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas the minimum
aperture position allows simmer warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of
liquids.
■ To reduce the gas flow to minimum, rotate the knob further anti-clockwise to point the
indicator towards the “ ” position.
■
Other intermediate operating adjustments can be achieved by positioning the indicator
between the maximum and minimum aperture positions and never between the
maximum aperture and the “
0 ” (off) position.
■
Note that, if you are using a burner at the minimum setting, you turn the knob clockwise
past the maximum setting before reaching the “
0 ” (off) position.
■
To switch off, turn the knob clockwise until you hear the safety click (“ 0 ” off position).
Note:
When the range is not being used, set the gas knobs to their closed position and
also close the gas shut-off valve placed on the main gas supply line.
Caution!
The range becomes very hot during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
