3 - USE OF COOKING HOB
GAS BURNERS
Each burner is controlled by a gas tap
which opens and closes the gas supply.
Line the control knob symbol up with the
indicator on the control panel (fig. 3.1) to
obtain:
– symbol
●
: off
– symbol
: full on
(maximum rate)
– symbol
: minimum rate
To reduce the gas flow to minimum,
rotate the knob anti-clockwise to point
the indicator towards the small flame
symbol.
The maximum setting permits rapid boil-
ing of liquids, whereas the minimum set-
ting allows slower warming of food or
maintaining simmering conditions of liq-
uids.
Other intermediate operating can be
achieved by positioning the control knob
indicator between the maximum and
minimum setting, but not between the
maximum and off positions.
N.B. When the cooker is not being
used, set the gas knobs to their
closed positions and also close the
cock valve on the gas bottle or the
main gas supply line.
Caution!
the cooking hob becomes very hot
during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
