WARNING

IMPORTANT: WHEN THE HOB IS IN USE, THE ENTIRE HOB AREA MAY BECOME HOT.

•To ignite one of the burners, turn the relative knob anti-clockwise to the maximum flame setting.

•Press the knob against the control panel to ignite the burner.

•After the burner has ignited, keep the knob pressed for about 5-10 seconds to allow proper device operation.

This burner safety device shuts off the gas supply to the burner if the flame goes out accidentally (because of sudden draught, an interruption in the gas delivery, boiling over of liquids, etc.).

•The knob must not be pressed for more than 15 sec. If, after that time has elapsed, the burner does not remain lit, wait at least one minute before trying to light it again.

NOTE: should particular local conditions of the delivered gas make the ignition of burner difficult, it is advisable to repeat

the operation with the knob turned to small flame setting.

The burner might go out when the knob is released. This means that the safety device has not warmed up enough. In this case, repeat the operations described above.
