Practical advice for using the
hob burners
For better use of the burners and lower gas
consumption, use covered vessel that are
proportional in size to the burner to prevent
the flame from licking the sides. When water
reaches the boiling point, lower the flame so
that it doesn't overflow. To avoid burns or
damage to the hob, all vessels or griddle
plates must be placed within the perimeter
of the hob. All vessels must have a flat and
smooth bottom. When using fats or oils, be
extremely careful that they don’t overheat
and catch fire.
If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off the
control knob and wait at least 1 minute
before trying to re-light the burner.
Diameter of the vessels to be
used on each burner
In the event of a power failure the
burners can be lit with a match or
gas lighter.
The flame failure devices will
continue to function normally.

When using for the first time, it is
advisable to heat up the cooking
hob to its maximum temperature
for enough time so as to burn off
any possible oily manufacturing
residues, the smell of which could
otherwise be absorbed by the
food.
