Operation

Hob burners

)To light a burner:

z push the electric ignition pushbutton which is marked by a little spark.

z at the same time turn the relevant control knob anticlockwise to maximum position andkeep it pushed down about 5 seconds.

This will allow the "thermocouple" (see diagram - letter D) to be heated and the safety device to be switched off, otherwise the gas supply would be interrupted.

z then, check the flame is regular and adjust it as required.

If you cannot light the flame even after several attempts, check the "cap" and “crown” (see diagram - letter A and B) are in the correct position.

To put the flame out, turn the knob to the symbol z.

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

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table).

Burner	minimum	maximum
	diameter	diameter

Large (rapid)	180 mm	260 mm
Medium (semi-rapid)	120 mm	220 mm
Small (auxiliary)	80 mm	160 mm

If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the recommended size, the flame will spread beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to overheat.

Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated splashes could easily ignite.

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.
