USE OF THE GAS BURNERS
• To ignite one of the burners, turn the relative knob
•Press the knob against the control panel to ignite the burner.
•After the burner has ignited, keep the knob pressed for about 5 seconds to allow the thermocouple to warm up. This burner safety device shuts off the gas supply to the burner if the flame goes out accidentally (because of sudden draught, an interruption in the gas delivery, boiling over of liquids, etc.).
•The device must not be pressed for more than 15 sec. If, after that time has elapsed, the burner does not remain lit, wait at least one minute before trying to light it again.
The burner might go out when the knob is released.
This means that the thermocouple has not warmed up enough. In this case, repeat the operations described above.
• Rinse and dry |
• Refit burners and burner caps correctly in the respective housings. |
• When replacing the grids, make sure that the panstand area is aligned with the burner. |
• Models equipped with electrical ignition plugs and safety device require thorough cleaning of the plug end in order to |
ensure correct operation. Check these items frequently, and if necessary, clean them with a damp cloth. Any |
food should be removed with a toothpick or needle. |
NOTE: to avoid damaging the electric ignition device, do not use it when the burners are not in their housing. |
