8.USE OF THE HOB
8.1Lighting of the hob burners
Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame caps are in the correct position and that their burner caps are in place, making sure that the holes A in the flame caps correspond to the spark plugs and thermocouples.
Before lighting the burners lift the glass cover; before lowering the cover, turn off all the burners and wait for them to cool down.
The optional grid B is for use with “woks” (Chinese pans).
To prevent deterioration of the hob we have equipped the cooker with a raised pan stand C to be placed underneath pans more than 26 cm in diameter.
The supplied reduction rest C is also used for small pans.
The drawing next to each knob shows the corresponding burner. The appliance has an electronic lighting device. Simply press and turn the knob anticlockwise to the minimum flame
symbol , until the ring is lit. Hold the knob down for a few seconds to allow the thermocouples to heat up. The burner may goout when the knob is released: this is because the thermocouple has not been sufficiently heated. Repeat the operation holding down the knob for a little longer. This operation is not necessary for burners without thermocouples.
For models with thermocouples, if the burner should accidentally go out, a safety device will be activated which stops the gas flow even if the tap is open.
