As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid simmering.

If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your local Service Force Centre.

When switching on the mains, after installation or a power cut, it is quite normal for the spark generator to be activated automatically.

In the absence of electricity, ignition can occur without the electrical device; in this case, approach the burner with a flame, push the relevant knob down and turn it anti-clockwise until it reaches the “maximum” position.

Using the hob correctly

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, it is strongly recommended that you use only pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of the burner used, so that flame will not spread beyond the bottom of the vessel (see the table).

Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.

The stainless steel can become tarnished if excessively heated. Therefore prolonged cooking with potstones, earthenware pans or cast- iron plates is inadvisable.Also, do not use aluminium foil to protect the top during use.

Make sure pots do not protrude over the edges of the cooktop and that they are centrally positioned on the rings in order to obtain lower gas consumption.

Do not place unstable or deformed pots on the rings: they could tip over or spill their contents, causing accidents.

Pots must not enter the control zone.
