5 // SPECIAL MESSAGES, DIFFICULTIES
YOU NOTICE THAT:
WHAT YOU SHOULD DO:
•
Lighting the burners:
No sparks appear when the control
knobs are pressed.
.
Check the electrical connection of your appliance.
. Check that the spark igniters are clean.
. Check that the burners are clean and correctly assembled.
. If the hob is secured to the work top, check that the mounting
brackets are not deformed.
. Check that the gaskets under the control knobs are not out of
position.
•
When you press on a knob, there are
sparks on all of the burners
simultaneously.
. This is normal. The ignition function is centralised and controls
all burners at the same time.
•
There are sparks, but the burner
does not light.
. Check that the gas inlet pipe is not pinched.
. Check that the length of the gas inlet pipe is less than
2 metres.
. Check that the gas inlet is open.
. If you use gas from a cylinder or tank, check that it is not
empty.
. If you have just installed the hob or changed the gas cylinder,
hold the knob down in the maximum open position until gas
arrives in the burners.
. Check that the injector is not clogged; if it is, unclog it with a
safety pin.
. Light your burner before placing your saucepan on it.
•
Upon ignition, the flames light up and
then are extinguished once the knob is
released.
. Press firmly down on the knobs and hold them down for a few
seconds after the appearance of flames.
. Check that the parts of the burner are correctly mounted.
. Check that the gaskets under the control knobs are not out of
position.
. Avoid strong drafts in the room.
. Light your burner before placing your saucepan on it.
•
In reduced heat mode, the burner
goes out or the flames remain high.
. Avoid strong drafts in the room.
. Check that the correct injectors have been fitted for the type
of gas being used (see the markings on the injectors in the
“Gas settings” section).
Reminder: The default settings on the hob are for a mains gas
supply (natural gas).
•
Check that the burner low power screws are properly set (See
the “Changing the Gas Supply” chapter).
•
The flames are irregular or uneven.
•
Check the cleanliness of the burners and injectors under the
burners, the assembly of the burners, etc.
•
Check that there is enough gas in the cylinder.
•
The hob produces an odour during
the first cooking sessions.
•
Operate each burner for half an hour with a saucepan full of
water.
•
Your hob emits a slight clicking
noise.
•
This is normal. This noise is caused by the distribution of power
between the two induction zones.
•
The saucepans make a noise during
cooking on the induction zones.
•
At high powers, this phenomenon is normal with certain types
of saucepan. It presents no risk to the hob.
