USING THE HOB
Lighting the hob burners
Before lighting the hob burners, check that the flame-spreader crowns
are correctly in place with their respective burner caps, making sure that
the holes
A
in the flame-spreaders are aligned with the igniters and
thermocouples.
The supplied rack
C
is for use with woks (Chinese pans).
The burner controlled by each knob is shown next to the 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.
