Using the cooktop

Before using for the first time thor-
oughly read the “Warning and
Safety instructions”.

Burner controls

The burner controls can only be
turned counter-clockwise as far as
the small flame symbol, otherwise
the controls could be damaged.

The flame strength can selected as fol-
lows:

X

Gas turned off

&

High flame

/

Low flame

The gas flame is lit by electriconic igni-
tion. When the burner control is
pressed, a spark passes from the igni-
tor to the burner and ignites the gas to
give a flame.

Each burner is equipped with an igni-
tion safety device. If a gas flame goes
out, for example if food has boiled over
or if there was a sudden draft, the igni-
tion safety control cuts off the supply of
gas.

Instructions for using the gas
burners

Place the pan on the pan support.

A ring support (trivet) is supplied with
the cooktop. It is designed to rest on
the pan support when using small
pans. 
The ring support should only be used
on a normal (front) burner with a low
flame. 
It should only be used with pans hav-
ing a diameter of less than 4" (10 cm).

Ignoring this advice could result in
damage to the ring support enamel.
