Use of the Hob
GAS BURNERS
Gas flow to the burners is adjusted by turning the knob illustrated in fig. 5 which con- trols the safety valves.
Turning the knob so that the indicator line points to the symbols printed on the panel achieves the following functions:
✓ full circle ● | = | closed valve |
✓ symbol | = maximum aperture or flow | |
✓ symbol | = | minimum aperture or flow |
The maximum aperture position permits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas the minimum aperture position allows slower warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of liquids.
To reduce the gas flow to minimum, rotate the knob further
Other intermediate operating adjustments can be achieved by positioning the indicator between the maximum and minimum aperture positions, not between the maximum aperture and closed positions.
N.B. When the hob is not being used, set the gas knobs to their closed posi- tions and also close the cock valve on the gas bottle or the main gas supply line.
