Each burner is fitted with a spark ignition electrode for lighting the gas.
To ensure rapid lighting of the burners every time they are used, the electrodes must be kept clean and dry. Remove any food spillage or cleaning materials from the electrodes using a small nylon brush such as a tooth brush.
Access to the ignitor can be achieved by lifting off the loose burner parts carefully when the burners are cool.
If aluminium based pans are used, a silvery deposit may appear on the top edge of the pan support fingers. See ‘Care and Cleaning’ section for further information.
