The Gas Hob Controls
To light a burner:
)
z turn the relevant control knob anticlockwise to the
maximum position, then push it down to ignite the
burner;
z upon ignition, keep the knob pushed down about 5
seconds. This will allow the "thermocouple" (see
diagram, D) to be heated and the safety device to be
switched off, otherwise the gas supply would be
interrupted.
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 diagram, A-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.
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the
recommended size, the flame will spread beyond
the bottom of the pan, causing the handle to
overheat.
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the
flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
simmering.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat,
as the overheated splashes could easily
ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please
contact your local Service Force Centre.
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).

Using the Wok Stand
A wok stand is provided to enable you to use a round

When fitting the wok stand, ensure the recesses in the
frame fit securely onto the bars of the pan supports, as
shown in the diagram.
