Hob burners
To light a burner:
z Push in the relevant control knob and turn it to maximum position.
z Upon ignition, keep the knob pushed down about 5 seconds. This will allow the
"thermocouple" (fig. 1 - letter C) to be heated and the safety device to be switched off,
otherwise the gas supply would be interrupted.
z Then adjust the flame as required.
z If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero, and try again.
Each control knob is equipped with a pilot light which gradually lights up according to the
heat level that you select with the control knob.
When switching on the mains, after installation or a power cut, it is quite normal for the
spark generator to be activated automatically.
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only use pots and pans with a flat
bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table).
Burner minimum maximum
diameter diameter
Large (ultra-rapid) 180 mm. 260 mm.
Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm. 220 mm.
Small (Auxiliary) 80 mm. 160 mm.
Operation
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so
that it will barely keep the liquid simmering.
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the
recommended size, the flame will spread beyond the
bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to overheat.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the
overheated splashes could easily ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please
contact your local Service Force Centre.
