Operation

Hob burners

) To light a burner:
z	Push in the relevant control knob and turn it to maximum position.
z Upon ignition, keep the knob pushed down about 5 seconds. This will allow the
	"thermocouple" (fig. 1 - letter D) to be heated and the safety device to be switched off,
	otherwise the gas supply would be interrupted.
z Then adjust the flame as required.
z If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero, and try again.
	Each control knob is equipped with a pilot light which gradually lights up according to the heat
	level that you select with the control knob.
	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 (ultra-rapid)	180 mm	260 mm
	Medium (semi-rapid)	120 mm	220 mm
	Small (Auxiliary)	80 mm	160 mm
	As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down
	the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
	simmering.
	If you use a saucepan which is smaller than
	the recommended size, the flame will spread			A - Burner	cap
	beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the
				B - Burner	crown
	handle to overheat.
				C - Ignition	electrode
	Take care when frying food in hot oil or

	fat, as the overheated splashes could
	easily ignite.

Using the Wok Stand

A wok stand is provided to enable you to use a round bottomed wok on the hob. The wok stand must only be used on the central burner, and should not be used with any other type of wok or pan. When fitting the wok stand, ensure the recessesd in the frame fit securely onto the bars of the pan supports, as shown in figure 2.
