Please read the rest of the instruction book which contains important information to help you use the appliance safely and efficiently.
Gas and Electricity on
Make sure that the gas supply is turned on and that the appliance is plugged in and switched on. The ignitor needs electricity.
In case there is no electric current, the burner can also be lighted using a match.
It is recommended that pans suitable to the size of the burner should be used as follows:

Always use pans with a flat base diameter, which are well balanced and stable in use, a pan which overhangs the hotplate should not be used. Avoid using old, misshapen pans, or pans which are unstable when placed on a flat surface. Do not use “split pans” as they are inherently unstable.
To save gas, always position pans centrally over the burners and adjust the flames so that they do not lick up the sides of the pan and only the base is heated. Always put lids on saucepans and boil only the amount of liquid you use. When the liquid has boiled adjust the setting to maintain a simmer. Do not light the burner until the pan is in position and turn off the burner before removing the pan. In hard water areas, descale kettles regularly. For safety, keep saucepan handles turned to a safe position so they are out of reach of small children and cannot be accidentally knocked.
To tunr the burner OFF, turn the control knob clockwise to the OFF setting (marked with a dot )
Automatic electric ignition
To turn on a burner, press the knob corresponding to the selected burner and turn it anticlockwise to the maximum position. Keeping the knob pressed, the electric automatic ignition of the burner will be started up. In case there is not electric current, the burner can also be lighted using a match.
The small flame indicates the ‘low position’.
Turn the knob to it after the contents of a pan have boiled.
The smaller burners are for smaller pans and simmering. Make sure flames are under the pans. Using a lid will help the contents boil more quickly.
WARNING
It is not recommended to press push button for ignition if all the burners are not located in the proper positions. The burner heads, burner skirts and pan supports are removable for better cleaning: Always ensure that the burner skirts and heads are replaced correctly so that the burners function safely and correctly. During the use of the appliance pay attention that water or any liquid does not enter into the appliance through the holes of the burners or around the rods of the valves or the push button electronic lighter.
Water or juice will produce dangerous
