5. Operating Principle

The gas hob features two normal burners,
two large burners and a Wok burner.

The appliance features one-hand operation, flame
detection and automatic re-ignition. The ignition is
activated when the control knob is turned. 

Should the flame go out during operation, the
appliance will automatically re-ignite the burner. 

During a disturbance, the appliance will cut off the
gas supply as a safety measure, to prevent
unburned gas escaping. 

The flame setting is infinitely variable between high
and low. 

The total rated thermal load amounts to:
58,000 BTU (17 kW)

The specified rated load is defined by installation
of the fixed nozzles.

The gas hob is converted to a different gas 
type by nozzle replacement (full and low-burning
nozzles) (see nozzle table on page 20-21).
