3. USING THE COOKTOP
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
- Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge
of the pan.
- Turn off all controls when not cooking.
NOTE: Check that the flame cap crowns, the burner caps and grids are correctly
assembled.
Pins A on the flame cap crowns must be inserted in housings B on the burner
rings, and pins C on the grids must be locked into their respective housings on the
cooktop.
3.1 Ignition with safety device
Each knob has a symbol that shows the correspondent burner (the example here on the left shows the
front left burner).
The appliance is equipped with an electronic ignition.
- Just press and simultaneously turn the knob anti-clockwise to the low flame symbol until the
burner switches on.
- Keep the knob pressed down for about 2 seconds to keep the flame lit and to activate the safety
device.
- After switching the burner on it is recommended that the knob is left in the minimum position for
approximately 20 seconds before adjusting it to the required temperature.
It may happen that the flame goes out when the knob is released. In this case repeat the operation, but
keeping the knob pressed down for a longer time.
NOTE: If the flame goes out accidentally, after about 20 seconds the safety device will intervene and
block the gas flow, even when the tap is open.
REMEMBER: When the cooktop is in use, the entire cooktop area may become hot
