GB Start-up and use

!The position of the corresponding gas burner is shown on every knob.

Gas cooker hobs are equipped with discrete power adjustment that allows for accurately adjusting the flame to 5 different power levels. Thanks to this system, gas hobs are also capable of guaranteeing the same cooking results for each recipe, as the optimal power level for the desired type of cooking can be identified in an easier, more accurate way.

Gas burners

Each burner can be adjusted to one of the following settings using the corresponding control knob:

●Off

Maximum

Minimum

To light one of the burners, hold a lit match or lighter near the burner and, at the same time, press down and turn the corresponding knob anti-clockwise to the maximum setting.

Since the burner is fitted with a safety device, the knob should be pressed for approximately 2-3 seconds to allow the automatic device keeping the flame alight to heat up.

When using models with an ignition button, light the desired burner pressing down the corresponding knob as far as possible and turning it anticlockwise towards the maximum setting.

!If a flame is accidentally extinguished, turn off the control knob and wait for at least 1 minute before trying to relight it.

To switch off the burner, turn the knob in a clockwise direction until it stops (when reaches the “●” position).

Discrete flame adjustment

The selected burner can be adjusted - by means of the knob - to 5 different power levels. To shift between levels, simply turn the knob towards the desired power level.

A click signals the passage from one power level to the other.

The selected power level is indicated by the

correspondingsymbol(symbols) and, on hobs equipped with a display, by the LEDs that turn on (5 = max. power; 1 = min. power). The system guarantees accurate flame adjustment and uniform cooking results by facilitating selection of the desired power level.

The “double-flame” burner

This gas burner consists of two concentric flame rings that can operate jointly or independently (in case of dual-control only).

As the burner is fitted with a safety device, the knob should be pressed down for approximately 2-3 seconds until the device keeping the flame automatically alight heats up.

Dual control:

Each ring comprising the burner has its own control knob:

The knob marked with the symbolcontrols the outer ring. The knob marked with the symbolcontrols the inner ring.

To activate any one of the two rings, press the corresponding knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the maximum power setting .

In order to use the double-flame burner to its full potential, avoid simultaneously setting the inner ring to minimum power and the outer ring to maximum power.

Single control:

The rings comprising the burner are activated through a single control knob.

To simultaneously turn on both rings, position the knob on the symbol (max) -(min) then press and turn the knob anti-clockwise.

To turn on the inner ring only, position the knob on the symbol	(max ) -
(min) then press and turn the knob clockwise.
(to switch modes, it is necessary to switch off the burner).

To switch off the burner, press and turn the knob clockwise until it stops (when it reaches the “●” position).

Practical advice on using the burners

To ensure the burners operate efficiently:

•Use appropriate cookware for each burner (see table) so that the flames do not extend beyond the bottom of the cookware.

•Always use cookware with a flat base and a cover.

•When the contents of the pan reach boiling point, turn the knob to minimum.
