- The maximum aperture position per-
mits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas
the minimum aperture position allows
slower warming of food or maintain-
ing boiling conditions of liquids.
- To reduce the gas flow to minimum,
rotate the knob further anti-clockwise
to the small flame symbol.
- Other intermediate operating adjust-
ments can be achieved by positioning
the indicator between the maximum
and minimum aperture positions, and
never between the maximum aper-
ture and closed positions.
GAS BURNERS
Each burner is controlled by a gas tap
which opens and closes the gas supply.
Turning the knob so that the indicator
line points to the symbols printed on the
panel achieves the following functions:
– symbol
●
: off

: full on (nominal rate)
– symbol
: reduced rate
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.
