How To Use Your Appliance
Close-up View
The position of the corresponding gas burner or electric
hot plate (if present) is indicated on each control knob.
Gas Burners
The burners differ in size and power. Choose the most
appropriate one for the diameter of the cookware being
used.
The burner can be regulated with the corresonding control
knob by using one of the following settings:
• Off
High
Low
To turn on one of the burners, place a lighted match or
lighter near the burner, press the knob all the way in and
turn in the counter-clockwise direction to the "High" setting.
On those models fitted with a safety device (F), the
knob must be pressed in for about 6 seconds until the
device that keeps the flame lighted warms up.
On those models fitted with an ignitor (D), the "E"
ignition button, identified by the
symbol, must first be
pressed and then the corresponding knob pushed all the
way in and turned in the counter-clockwise direction to
the "High" setting.
Some models are equipped with an ignition switch
incorporated into the control knob. If this is the case, the
ignitor (D) is present, but not the "E" switch (the
symbol
is located near each knob).
To light a burner, simply press the corresponding knob all
the way in and then turn it in the counter-clockwise
direction to the "High" setting, keeping it pressed in until
the burner lights.
Caution: If the burner accidently goes out, turn off the
gas with the control knob and try to light it again after
waiting at least 1 minute.
To turn off a burner, turn the knob in the clockwise
direction until it stops (it should be on the “•” setting).
