for more than 15 seconds. If after 15 seconds the burner has not lit, stop the device and open the compartment door and/or wait at least 1 minute before attemting a futher ignition of the burner.
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not attempt to
Turning on the electric
hotplates
The electric hotplates are controlled by a switch with seven positions. To get different levels of power, all you need to do is to turn the appropriate knob and set it to the posi- tion you want. (See fig. 21).
The pan should be placed on the hotplate before ignition.

The power corresponding to each of the switch’s positions is as follows:
GB
Hotplate Ø 145 - 1500 W.
Control set to | Power |
0 | Switched off |
1 | 135 W. |
2 | 165 W. |
3 | 250 W. |
4 | 500 W. |
5 | 750 W. |
6 | 1500 W. |
When this type of hotplate is in operation or has recently been in ope- ration, some areas will be hot and can burn.
The hotplate with the red dot (1500 W.) heats up rapidly and achieves its maxi- mum during around the first five minutes, after which its power decreases to 500 W., at which point the temperature becomes constant.
On the control panel, there is a square with circles inside that show which hotplate corresponds to which control.
There is also an indicator light on the panel that shows whether one or more hotplates are in operation.
After being connected, or if the hotplate has not been used for some time, the moisture absorbed by the insulation needs to be eliminated - to dry it out, turn the hot- plate on with no pan on it for five minutes at switch position 2.
