The gas burners
All of the operating controls show which burner they control.
Fig. 1.
To light one of the burners, press in the control knob of the
respective burner and turn it to the left, as far as the maximum
symbol, and hold it there for a couple of seconds until the
burner lights. Now release the knob and turn it to the desired
heating setting. If the burner does not light, repeat the process.
If the ignition sparkers are dirty, this makes the burner harder
to light, so you should keep them as clean as possible. Clean
them using a small brush, and remember that the ignition
sparkers must be treated very gently.
If your cooking hob is not fitted with this automatic lighting
feature, use a lighter or a match to light the burner.
Your hob may be fitted with safety thermocouples which
prevent gas from being released if the burners are accidentally
turned off. Fig. 2.
To turn on and activate this innovative system, proceed in
the same way, but keep the control pressed down until it comes
on, with the flame appearing and staying lit.
If the burner does not light, repeat the procedure but this time
hold the knob pressed in for 1-5 seconds.
To turn it off, turn the control to the right to the position .
When doing this, the ignition system may work again - this is
completely normal.
The modern functional cooking hob you have purchased has
progressive taps fitted which allow you to adjust the flame to
the desired heat.
The large double flame burner is highly practical and suitable
for cooking with paella pans, woks, etc.
If your hob has a large double flame burner, it will have a tap
fitting that will enable you to control the inner and outer flames
separately. This revolutionary system allows you to choose
from a wide range of powers. Operating description Fig. 3.
When you are using this gas appliance, it will make the kitchen
hot and humid, and therefore you must ensure that the kitchen
is well ventilated. Keep all the natural sources of ventilation
open, or install a mechanical ventilation device (such as an
extractor fan). If your appliance is in continual use, you may
require supplementary ventilation, such as an open window
(while avoiding draughts) or you may need to increase the
power of any mechanical system.
