Instructions for the user

7. USING THE HOB

Make sure that the flame-baffle crowns, the caps and the grid have been assembled correctly. Grid A (supplied) should be used for "woks" (Chinese pots).

Adapter B (supplied) is to be used for small vessels.

7.1 Ignition of the burners with safety device

For each knob the corresponding burner is indicated. The device is fit with electronic ignition. Simply press and simultaneously turn the knob counter-clockwise on the low point flame symbol, until the burner is ignited. Concerning models with valves, push the knob for approximately 2 seconds in order to keep the flame burning and to activate the safety device. The burner might go off when the knob is released. In this case repeat the aforesaid operation keeping the knob pressed for more than 2 seconds.

Should the burners go off accidentally in the models with valves, a safety device will trip after approximately 20 seconds to block the gas outlet even if the cock is open.

7.2 Practical advice for using the burners

For better burner performance and minimum gas consumption, flat bottomed, even recipients must be used, with covers and proportional in size to the burners (see paragraph “7.3 Diameter of containers”).

To avoid overcooking or damage to the surface top while cooking, all recipients or griddles must be positioned within the cooking hob perimeter and must be a minimum distance of 3-4 cm from the knobs.
