sound and hold it down for 2-3 seconds. CAUTION: Knob should be fully open to light
the burner
5. After ignition, the burners should be operated at the high position for 10 minutes in
order to preheat the plancha. This process should be done before every cooking session.
IMPORTANT - The hood / lid should be open during preheating.
6. After completion of preheating, turn the burners to low position for best cooking
results.
7. If you cannot light the burner by previous steps, check the following:
a. Is the gas cylinder empty?
b. Is the diffuser properly inserted into the injector?
c. Are all hoses connected properly?
Remarks: You need to verify the flame at the side of the appliance. Make sure that all
burners are lit correctly.
After each cooking session, turn the control knobs to the <<HIGH>> position and wait for
5 minutes. Any residues will be burnt off, helping with the cleaning process. The lid / hood
must be open during this process.
As soon as you have finished cooking, turn all the control knobs clockwise back to the
<<OFF>> position, then close valves on the gas bottle. Let the plancha cool down sufficiently
before closing the lid.
