Correct positioning of the flame-
spreader crowns and burner caps
Before lighting the hob burners, make sure
that the flame-spreader crowns are
correctly positioned in their housings with
their respective burner caps. Make sure that
the holes

in the flame-spreader crowns
are aligned with the thermocouples

and

Practical tips for using the hob
For better burner efficiency and to minimise
gas consumption, use pans with lids and of
suitable size for the burner, so that the
flames do not reach up the sides of the pan.
Once the contents come to the boil, turn
down the flame far enough to ensure that
the liquid does not boil over.
3.4 Using the electric hotplates
Preliminary operations
When switching on the hob for the first time,
or if the hob has not been used for a long
time, to remove any humidity from the
insulating material it should be dried out by
placing the hob on position 1 for 30
minutes.
Using the electric hotplates
The cookers are equipped with two electric
hotplates of different diameters. These are
controlled by a switch and are turned on by
turning the knob to the desired position. On
the front panel above each knob a small
drawing shows which hotplate corresponds
to each knob. A yellow warning light lights
up when the hotplate is switched on.
