Fig. 2.1a
Fig. 2.1b
GAS BURNERS
The gas flow to the burners is achieved
by turning the knob (illustrated in figs.
2.1a - 2.1b) which controls the safety
tap.
By turning the knob so that the indicator
line points at the symbols printed on the
panel we obtain the following settings:
✓ full circle
● = closed valve
✓ symbol = maximum
aperture or flow
✓ symbol = minimum
aperture or flow
✓ To reduce the gas flow to minimum,
rotate the knob further anti-clockwise
to point the indicator towards the
small flame symbol.
✓ The maximum aperture position per-
mits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas
the minimum aperture position allows
slower warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of liquids.
✓ Other intermediate operating adjust-
ments can be achieved by positioning
the indicator between the maximum
and minimum aperture positions, and
never between the maximum aperture and closed positions.
Models without safety cut-off valves
Models with safety cut-off valves
N.B. When the cooker top is not
being used, set the gas knobs to
their closed positions and also
close the cock valve on the gas
bottle or the main gas supply line.

LIGHTING GAS BURNERS
Models without
safety valve device
To light one of the gas burners, push in
and turn the relative knob to the maximum aperture position (large flame
symbol fig. 2.1a) and hold the knob
in until the flame has been lit.
Turn the gas tap to the position
required.
Note: Whenever special conditions of
the gas supplied locally make it difficult
to light the burner with the knob in the
maximum flow position, repeat the
operation with the knob in the minimum
flow position.
LIGHTING GAS BURNERS
Models with
safety valve device
In order to light the burner, you must:
1 – Turn the knob fig. 2.2 in anti-clock-
wise direction up to the maximum
aperture (symbol fig. 2.1b), push
in and hold the knob; this will light
the gas.
In case of black-out, bring
a lighted match close to the burner.
2 – Wait about ten seconds after the
gas lighting before releasing the
knob (starting time for the valve).
3 – Adjust the gas valve to the desired
power.
If the burner flame should go out for
some reason, the safety valve will automatically stop the gas flow.
To re-light the burner, return the knob to
the closed
● position, wait for at least
1 minute and then repeat the lighting
procedure.
If your local gas supply makes it difficult
to light the burner with the knob set to
maximum, set the knob to minimum and
repeat the operation.
The igni tion device shall not be
operated for more than 15 seconds.
If after 15 seconds the burner has
not lit, stop operating the device
and open the compartment door of
the cabinet underneath (if available)
and/or wait at least 1 minute before
attempting a further ignition of the
burner.
In case of black-out, bring a lighted
match close to the burner.
10
CHOICE OF BURNER (fig. 2.3)
The symbols printed on the panel beside
the knobs indicate the correspondence
between the knob and the burner.
The most suitable burner is to be chosen
according to the diameter and volume
capacity of the container to be heated.
It is important that the diameter of the
pots or pans suitably match the heating
potential of the burners in order not to
jeopardise their efficiency and avoid a
waste of energy.
A small diameter pot or pan placed on a
large burner does not necessarily mean
that boiling conditions are reached
quicker.
Caution!
the cooking hob becomes very
hot during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.

SPECIAL WOK GRILLE
(figs. 2.4, 2.5)
This special grille for woks should be placed over the pan-rest for the triple ring burner.
Warning:
✓ Using woks without this special grille may cause the burner to malfunction.
✓ Do not use the grille for ordinary, flat-bottomed saucepans.
IMPORTANT:
The special grille for wok pans (figs. 2.4 - 2.5) MUST BE PLACED ONLY over the panrest for the triple-ring burner.

RAPID HOTPLATE (red dot)
The characteristics of this hotplate,
which is also equipped with a thermostatic cut-off device, make it possible to:
– achieve the cooking temperature
rapidly
– make full use of its output power
using flat-bottomed pans
– limit the output power with unsuitable
saucepans.
To turn on the electric hotplate, rotate
the knob (fig. 3.1) on the desired setting.
The numbers from 1 to 6 indicate the
operating positions with increasing
value, corresponding to higher temperatures.
When the pot contents come to the boil,
turn the heat down to the level desired.
Remember that the hotplate will continue to produce heat for about five minutes after it has been turned off.
PROPER USE OF THE ELECTRIC HOTPLATE
(fig. 3.2)
While using the electric hotplate, you
must:
✓ avoid using it without any vessel;
✓ avoid pouring liquids on it while it is
hot;
✓ use flat-bottomed (electric hotplate
type) pots and pans only;
✓ use cookware which covers as much
as possible surface of the hotplate;
✓ save electricity, by using lids whenev-
er possible;
✓ never cook food directly on the hot-
plate: always use a pan or a suitable
container.
An indicator light located on the control
panel signals that the hotplate is operating.

GENERAL ADVICE
✓ Before you b e g i n c l e a n i n g you
must ensure th a t t h e hob is
switched off.
✓ It is advisable to clean when the
appliance is cold and especially when
cleaning the enamelled parts.
✓ All enamelled surfaces have to be
washed with soapy water or some
other non-abrasive product with a
sponge and are to be dried preferably
with a soft cloth.
✓ Avoid leaving alkaline or acid sub-
stances (lemon juice, vinegar etc.) on
the surfaces.
✓ Do not use cleaning products with a
chlorine or acidic base.
WARNING
When correctly installed, your product meets all safety requirements laid
down for this type of product category. However special care should be
taken around the underneath of the
appliance as this area is not designed
or intended to be touched and may
contain sharp or rough edges, that
may cause injury.
ENAMELLED PARTS
✓ All the enamelled parts must be
cleaned with a sponge and soapy
water only or other non-abrasive
products.
✓ Dry preferably with a microfibre or
soft cloth.
If acid substances such as lemon
juice, tomato conserve, vinegar etc.
are left on the enamel for a long time
they will etch it, making it opaque.
STAINLESS STEEL ELEMENTS
✓ Stainless steel parts must be rinsed
with water and dried with a soft and
clean cloth.
✓ For persistent dirt, use specific non-
abrasive products available commercially or a little hot vinegar.
✓ Note: regular use could cause dis-
colouring around the b urners,
because of the high flame temperature.
ELECTRIC HOTPLATES
✓ Always clean when the hotplate is
tepid.
✓ Use a soft cloth, dampened with
water, and a little salt. To finish off,
use a soft cloth with a little oil.
CONTROL KNOB
✓ The control knobs may be removed
for cleaning but care should be taken
not to damage the seal.
Attention
The a p p liance g e t s ve r y h o t ,
mainly around the cooking areas.
It is very important that children
are not left alone in the kitchen
when you are cooking.
Do not use a steam cleaner
because the moisture can get
