USING THE HOB
Lighting the hob burners
Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame diffuser rings are
correctly in place with their respective burner caps, making sure that the
holes
A
in the flame diffusers are aligned with the plugs and thermocouples.
The special pan stand
B
is for use with woks.
The burner it controls is shown next to each knob. The appliance is
equipped with an electronic ignition device. Simply press the knob and turn
it anti-clockwise to the maximum flame symbol , until the burner lights.
Keep the knob pressed down for about 2 seconds to allow the thermocouple
to heat up. The burner may go out when the knob is released: this means
that the thermocouple has not warmed up enough. Repeat the operation,
keeping the knob pressed down for longer.
If the burners should go out accidentally a safety device will be tripped
about 20 seconds later, cutting off the gas supply even if the gas tap is
open.
