6. USE OF THE COOKING HOB

6.1 Lighting of the cooking hob burners

Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame-spreader crowns are located in their housing with their respective caps. Ensure that flame- spreader holes A correspond to the spark plugs and the thermocouples. Grid B should be used for Chinese wok type pans.

Each knob corresponds to the burner indicated. The appliance is equipped with an electronic lighting device. Just press and turn the knob

anticlockwise to the maximum flame symbol until the burner lights. Keep the knob pressed for about 2 seconds to let the thermocouple heat up. If the burner turns off when the knob is released, it means that the thermocouple isn’t hot enough. Repeat ignition and keep the knob pressed longer.

Should the burners go out by accident a safety device intervenes to block gas supply even with the tap open.
