This appliance is fitted with a
thermoelectric ignition safety device
which cuts off the supply of gas to a
burner if the flame goes out, for
example if food has boiled over, or if
there was a sudden draught.
^
To use the burner again, turn the
control clockwise to the "ß" position,
and then switch it back on as normal.
The safety cut-out operates
independently from the electricity
supply. This means that it will still work
if the hob is used during a power cut
(see "Use during a power cut").
