3 - USE OF COOKING HOB
GAS BURNERS
Each burner is controlled by a gas tap
which opens and closes the gas supply.
Line the control knob symbol up with the
indicator on the control panel (fig. 3.1) to
obtain:
– symbol
●
: off
– symbol
: full on
(maximum rate)
– symbol
: minimum rate
●
To reduce the gas flow to minimum,
rotate the knob anti-clockwise to point
the lever towards the small flame
symbol.
●
The maximum aperture position per-
mits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas
the minimum aperture position allows
slower warming of food or maintain-
ing boiling conditions of liquids (sim-
mering).
●
Other intermediate operating adjust-
ments can be achieved by positioning
the lever between the maximum and
minimum aperture positions, and
never between the maximum aper-
ture and off positions.

N.B. When the cooker is not being
used, set the gas knobs to their
closed positions and also close the
cock valve on the gas bottle or the
main gas supply line.
Caution!
the cooking hob becomes very hot
during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
