and adjust it as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the
control knob to zero, and try again.
If after a few attempts the burner
does not ignite, check that the burner
cap and crown (see figure 2, letter A and
B) are correctly positioned.
To interrupt the supply of gas, turn
the knob in a clockwise direction to the
position " ".
When lighting the hob manually:
Hold a flame near the burner. Never turn
the control knob before approaching the
burner with the flame.
When switching on the mains,
after installation or a power
cut, it is quite normal for the
spark generator to be
activated automatically.
If you use a saucepan which is
smaller than the recommend-
ed size, the flame will spread
beyond the bottom of the pan,
causing the handle to over-
heat.
