HOB BURNERS CONTROL KNOBS
The hob burners control knobs are situated on the hob
right hand side. The symbols on the knobs mean that :
●
there is no gas supply
there is maximum gas supply
there is minimum gas supply
LIGHTING THE BURNERS
•
For easier lighting, proceed before putting a pan
on the pan support.
To light a burner, turn the relevant knob anticlockwise to
maximum position and push down the knob to ignite.
After lighting the flame, keep the knob pushed down for
about 5 seconds. This will allow the "thermocouple"
(Fig. 1 lett. D) to be heated and the safety device to be
switched off, otherwise the gas supply would be
interrupted.
Then, check the flame is regular and adjust it as required.
If you cannot light the flame even after several attempts,
check the "cap" (Fig. 1 lett. A) and the "crown" (Fig. 1 lett.
B) are in the correct position.
To put the flame out, turn the knob to the symbol
●
.
•
Always turn the flame down or put it out before
taking the pans off the burner.
USING THE HOB CORRECTLY
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, it is strongly
recommended that you use only pots and pans with a
bottom fitting the size of the burner used, so that flame
will not spread beyond the bottom of the vessel (see the
table beside).
It is also advisable, as soon as a liquid starts boiling, to
turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
simmering.
•
Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.
Carefully supervise cookings with fats or oil,
since these types of foodstuff can result in a fire,
if over-heated.
