For each BURNER knob there is a complete ring
showing the strength of the flame for the relevant
burner.
To light one of the burners on the hob:
1. Bring a flame or gas lighter close to the burner.
2. Press the BURNER knob and turn it in an
anticlockwise direction so that it is pointing to the
ma
x
imum flame setting .
3. Adjust the intensity of the flame to the desired
level by turning the BURNER knob in an
anticlockwise direction. This may be the minimum
setting , the ma
x
imum setting , or any position in
between the two.
The appliance is fitted with an
electronic lighting device which
is integrated into the knob.
Simply light the desired burner
by turning the corresponding
knob in an anti-clockwise
direction, until it is aligned with
the large flame symbol, press
it all the way in to activate the electronic ignition and
hold it in that position until the burner is lit. The burner
might be e
x
tinguished when the knob is released. If
this occurs, repeat the process, holding the knob
down for a longer period of time.
If the flame is accidentally e
x
tinguished, switch off
the burner and wait for at least 1 minute before
attempting to relight it.
The appliance is equipped with a flame failure safety
device; press and hold the BURNER knob for
appro
x
imately 2-3 seconds to keep the flame alight
and to activate the device.
To switch the burner off, turn the knob until it
reaches the stop position
.
Practical
advice
on
using
the
b
urners
For the burners to work in the most efficient way
possible and in order to save on the amount of gas
consumed, it is recommended that only pans which
have a lid and a flat base are used. They should
also be suited to the size of the burner.
To identify the type of burner, please refer to the
diagrams contained in the Burner and nozzle
specifications.

Make sure the pans do not overlap the edges of
the hob while it is being used.
For models equipped with a reducer grid, the latter
must be used only for the au
x
iliary burner, when
pans with a diameter of less than 12 cm are used.

The first time you use your appliance, heat the
empty oven with its door closed at its ma
x
imum
temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the
room is well ventilated before switching the oven off
and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit
a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective
substances used during the manufacturing process
burning away.
Never put objects directly on the bottom of the
oven; this will prevent the enamel coating from being
damaged.
