INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER
It is necessary that all the operations regarding the installation, adjustment and
adaptation to the type of gas available are carried out by qualified personnel, in
conformity with the regulations in force.
The specific instructions are described in the booklet section intended for the
installer.
USING THE BURNERS
The symbols silk-screen printed on the side of the
knob indicate the correspondence between the
knob and the burner.
Automatic start-up with valves
Turn the corresponding knob anticlockwise up to
the maximum position (large flame, fig. 1) and
press the knob.
Once the burner has been started up, keep the
knob pressed for about 6 seconds.
Using the burners
In order to obtain the maximum yield without
waste of gas, it is important that the diameter of
the pot is suitable for the burner potential (see
the following table), so as to avoid that the flame
goes out of the pot bottom (fig. 2).
Use the maximum capacity to quickly make the
liquids reach the boiling temperature, and the
reduced capacity to heat food or maintain boiling.
All of the operating positions must be chosen
between the maximum and the minimum ones,
never between the minimum position and the
closing point.
The gas supply can be interrupted by turning the
knob clockwise up to the closing position.
If there is no power supply, it is possible to light
the burners with matches, setting the knob to the
start-up point (large flame, fig. 1).
