Operation
Hob burners
) To light a burner:
z turn the relevant control knob anticlockwise to the maximum position, then push it down to ignite the burner;
z then, check the flame is regular and adjust it as required.
If you cannot light the flame even after several attempts, check the "cap" and “crown” (see Fig. 1 - letter A and B) are in the correct position.
To put the flame out, turn the knob to the symbol z.
When switching on the mains, after installation
or a power cut, it is quite normal for the spark generator to be activated automatically.
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table).

If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the recommended size, the flame will spread

beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to overheat.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated splashes could easily ignite.
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid simmering.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your local Service Force Centre.
Using the Wok Stand
A wok stand is provided to enable you to use a round bottomed wok on the hob. The wok stand must only be used on the front right burner, and should not be used with any other type of wok or pan.
When fitting the wok stand, ensure the recesses in the frame fit securely onto the bars of the pan supports, as shown in the diagrams.
