Minimum gas supply
To light a burner:
!
1. push the relevant control knob in completely
and turn it anticlockwise to the maximum
position;
3. then, check the flame is regular and adjust it
as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero,
and try again.
If after a few attempts the burner does not ignite, check
that the burner cap and crown (see figure - A,B) are
correctly positioned.
To interrupt the supply of gas, turn the knob in a
clockwise direction to the position """.
When switching on the mains, after
installation or a power cut, it is quite normal
for the spark generator to be activated
automatically.
Leave the burners to cool before closing the
cover.
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.

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 triple crown 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 picture.
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).
Burner minimum maximum
diameter diameter
Large (ultra-rapid
triple crown) 180 mm. 260 mm.
Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm. 220 mm.
Small (auxiliary) 80 mm. 160 mm.
Recommended pottery
Remember that a wide-bottomed pan allows a faster
cooking than a narrow one. Always use pots which
properly fit what you have to cook.
Particularly make sure that the pans are not too small
for liquids, since these could easily overflow.
Moreover, the pans should not be too large for a faster
cooking. In fact, grease and juices may spread on the
bottom and burn easily.
It is better to use non-openable moulds for baking cakes.
In fact, an openable mould lets juices and sugar leak
through, falling on the bottom of the oven and
consequently burning on the bottom of the baking tray,
making cleaning difficult.
Avoid putting plastic-handled pans in the oven as they
are not heat-proof.
You should use oans with the right diameter to fit the
burner, in order to make the most out of it, thus reducing
gas consumption.
It is also advisable to cover any boiling casserole and,
as soon as the liquid starts boiling, lower the flame
enough to keep the boiling point.
