To light a burner:

# push in the relevant control knob and turn

it anticlockwise to maximum position (

),

to ignite the burner.

# After lighting the flame, keep the knob

pushed down for about 5 seconds. This

will allow the "thermocouple" (Fig. 1 - lett.

D) to be heated and the safety device to be

switched off, otherwise the gas supply

would be interrupted.

# Then adjust the flame as required.

If the burner does not ignite, turn the control

knob to zero, and try again.

When switching on the mains, after

installation or a power cut, it is quite normal

for the spark generator to be activated

automatically.

In the absence of electricity, ignition can

occur without the electrical device; in this

case, approach the burner with a flame,

push the relevant knob down and turn it

anti-clockwise until it reaches the

“maximum” position.
