LIGHTING THE BURNERS
To ignite the burner, the following
instructions are to be followed:
1. Press in the corresponding knob and
turn counter-clockwise (fig. 3.2) to the
full flame position marked by the
symbol (fig. 3.1) and hold the knob in
until the flame has been lit.
In the case of a mains failure light the
burner with a match or lighted taper.
2. Wait for about ten seconds after the
gas burner has been lit before letting
go of the knob (valve activation
delay);
3. Adjust the gas valve to the desired
position.
If the burner flame should go out for some
reason, the safety valve will automatically
stop the gas flow.
To re-light the burner, return the knob to
the closed “ ” position, wait for at least
1 minute and then repeat the lighting
procedure.
If your local gas supply makes it difficult
to light the burner with the knob set to
maximum, set the knob to minimum and
repeat the operation.
CHOICE OF THE BURNER
On the control panel, near every knob
there is a diagram that indicates which
burner is controlled by that knob.
The suitable burner must be chosen
according to the diameter and the capacity
used.
The burners and pans must be used in
accordance with the following instructions:
DIAMETERS OF PANS WHICH MAY
BE USED ON THE BURNERS
BURNERS MINIMUM MAXIMUM
Auxliliary 12 cm 14 cm
Semi-rapid 16 cm 24 cm
Rapid 24 cm 26 cm
Double-ring
compact
26 cm 28 cm
do not use pans with concave or
convex bases
Fig. 3.3
It is important that the diameter of the pot
be suitable to the potentiality of the burner
so as not to compromise the high output
of the burners and therefore energy waste.
A small pot on a large burner does not
give you a boiling point in a shorter
amount of time since the capacity of heat
absorption of a liquid mass depends on
the volume and the surface of the pot.
Too large a pot can cause damage to the
burner and surrounding hob area.
CAUTION: Make sure the pans are
central to the burner for maximum stability
and greater efficiency.
Make sure the pans are not in contact with
the control knobs, otherwise the flame
could overheat the knobs and permanently
damage them.
