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.
Oven / Grill (If available) Burners
Regardless of the model of your appliance, all oven burners are equipped with a gas safety
device. For this reason, during ignition, keep the oven knob pressed until you see stable
flames. If the flames are cut out after you release the knob, repeat the ignition procedure.
If the oven burner does not ignite after you keep the burner knob pressed for 30 seconds,
open the oven door and do not attempt re-ignition for at least 90 seconds. If the oven
flames go out accidentally, repeat the same procedure.
