registered gas installers in conformity with the regulations in force. According to the Gas

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

Press the knob and turn the corresponding
knob anticlockwise up to the maximum position
(large flame, fig.1/1A).
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.
The gas supply can be interrupted by turning the
knob clockwise up to the closing position.

If the burner is switched off, it can be switched on
again

by pressing the knob and repositioning it in

the maximum position. If after 15 seconds the

flame does not ignite, switch off the burner and
open a nearby window or door. Wait at least one
minute before trying to switch the burner back on.
