Rapid ignition system
The appliance is supplied with a rapid
ignition system with the following fea-
tures:
– Rapid ignition without pressing and
holding the control,
– Automatic re-ignition
Should the flame be extinguished by
a gust of air, the burner will re-ignite
automatically. If re-ignition is unsuc-
cessful, the gas supply will be cut off
automatically (see "Flame failure
monitor").
Switching on
Fire hazard.
Do not leave the appliance unatten-
ded whilst it is being used.
The control knob for the burner must
be pressed in and turned anti-clock-
wise to the large flame symbol to
switch on. The ignitor will "click" and
ignite the gas.
When a control knob is activated, a
spark is developed automatically on all
burners. This is normal and does not
indicate a defect.
If the burner fails to ignite, turn the
control knob to the "
" position. Air
the room or wait at least 1 minute be-
fore trying again.
If the burner does not ignite the
second time, turn the control knob
back to "
" and see "What to do
if ...".
You might hear the burner re-igniting
as it switches itself back on
(1-2 clicks), for instance, in the event
of a draft.
