7.Using the hob
Check that the fixing rings, burners, flame diffuser rings and pan stands are fitted correctly.
The burner pins A must be fitted into the recesses B in the flame diffuser ring. The holes C in the flame diffuser ring must mate with the ignition plugs and thermocouples D on the hob.
7.1Lighting burners with safety device

The appliance is equipped with electronic ignition. Simply press the knob and turn it
, until the burner lights. Keep the knob pressed down for about 2 seconds to keep the flame alight and prime the safety device. The burner may go out when the knob is released. In this case, repeat the operation, keeping the knob pressed down for longer.
If the burners should go out accidentally the safety device will be tripped about 20 seconds later, cutting off the gas supply even if the gas tap is open.
7.2Positioning the griddle plate
A special griddle plate for use with the hob is available from authorised dealers. This plate must be placed on the pan stands properly CENTRED; it must never be fitted instead of a pan stand.
Ensure that the griddle plate is properly centred on the pan stand; if it is not correctly positioned, the knobs may overheat while it is in use.
Do not use griddle plate on ultra rapid burner.
7.3Practical hints for using the burners

When cooking, to prevent burns or damage to the hob all pans or griddle plates must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob and must be at least
