Using the hob
Before using your hob for the first time:
Read the operating and safety instructions thoroughly.
If you have not already done so, follow the steps in the “Preparation” section on page 7 so that the cooker
is ready for use.
Before switching on a burner, make sure that the selector knob you are using corresponds to the burner
you wish to switch on (Figure 9).
PLEASE NOTE: This hob is equipped with a flame failure device. This ensures that no gas escapes if
the flames are extinguished.
Igniting the burners
To ignite a burner press and turn the corresponding control knob anti-clockwise until the high flame position
is reached. Hold the control knob down until the burner ignites, and keep the knob held down for 10
seconds (Figure 10).
Adjusting the flame
Adjust the flame size by turning the control knob (Figure 10). Use the appropriate level of flame for the type
of cooking you are doing and use suitable sizes of pan for the different burners.
The size of the flame should only be regulated within the range between and (Figure 10).
Turning off the burners
To turn off the burner, turn the control knob clockwise to the position.
Resetting the Flame Failure Device
If this device does not detect a flame, the gas supply to the burner will automatically be turned off. To reset,
turn off the corresponding burner control knob, wait for 30 seconds, and then ignite the burner following the
instructions above.
Burners supplied from an LPG cylinder
Before lighting the first burner, open the valve on the LPG cylinder. Then light the burner using the method
described above.
When closing the flow of gas, before turning off the last burner close the valve on the LPG cylinder. When
the flame has gone out, close the tap of that burner.
When the hob is not in use the valve of the LPG cylinder should be closed.
