7. USE OF THE HOB
7.1 Lighting of the hob burners
Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame caps are in th
e
correct position and that their burner caps are in place, making sure tha
t
the holes A in the flame caps correspond to the spark plugs an
d
thermocouples.
Before lighting the burners lift the glass cover; before lowering th
e
cover, turn off all the burners and wait for them to cool down.
The optional grid B is for use with “woks” (Chinese pans).
To prevent deterioration of the hob we have equipped the cooker with
a
raised pan stand C to be placed underneath pans more than 26 cm i
n
diameter.
The supplied reduction rest C is also used for small pans.
The drawing next to each knob shows the
corresponding burner. The appliance has an
electronic lighting device. Simply press and turn the
knob anticlockwise to the minimum flame symbol
, until the ring is lit. Hold the knob down for a few
seconds to allow the thermocouples to heat up.
The burner may go out when the knob is released:
this is because the thermocouple has not been
sufficiently heated. Repeat the operation holding
down the knob for a little longer. This operation is
not necessary for burners without thermocouples.
For models with thermocouples, if the burner should accidentally go out,
a safety device will be activated which stops the gas flow even if the tap
is open.
