Safety system
Depending on the model, your cooktop may have a
safety system (thermocouple) that prevents the flow of
gas if the burners accidentally switch off. To ensure that
this device is active, switch on the burner as usual and,
without releasing the control knob, press and hold it
down firmly for 4 seconds after lighting the flame. Fig. 22.
