Usage
3. You must keep the dial depressed so that the automatic ignition for the burner
operates.
4. You should hold down the control knob for 15 seconds after the flame has
ignited on the burner. If after 15 seconds the burner has not lit, stop operating
the device and wait at least 1 min before trying to ignite the burner again.
5. After this 15-second interval, you will be able to release the dial and set the
flame to your required level by turning the dial anti-clockwise.
6. The operating position MUST be at a position between the maximum and
minimum position.
7. To switch the burner off, turn the control dial clockwise to the gas off position.
Note: In case of power cut, the burners can be lit carefully by using a match.
Warnings:
•
It is normal to hear a slight whistling noise while the burner is operating.
•
When it is first used, it is normal for the burner to give off odours; this does
not pose any risk and does not indicate a malfunction; they will disappear in
time.
•
A few seconds after the burner is switched off, a sound (thud) will be
produced. This is not a fault - this means that the safety device is no longer
operating.
•
Keep the burner as clean as possible. If the ignition sparkers are dirty they
will not light properly. Clean them periodically using a small non-wire brush.
Bear in mind that the ignition sparkers must not suffer any serious impacts.
•
An orange-coloured flame is normal. This is caused by the presence of dust in
the atmosphere, spilt liquids, etc.
•
The kitchen will become hot and humid when this gas appliance is used. You
must therefore ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: either keep the
natural ventilation apertures open, or install a ventilation system (extractor
hood).
•
If using the appliance intensively for prolonged periods, you may require
additional ventilation (e.g. by opening a window) or more effective
ventilation (e.g. by increasing the hob's ventilation, if possible).
•
If the burner flames are accidentally blown out, switch off the burner
operating control knob and do not try to relight it for at least one minute.
