Hob burners control knobs
The symbols on the knobs mean that :
there is no gas supply
there is maximum gas supply
there is minimum gas supply
Lighting the burners
For easier lighting, proceed before putting a pan on the pan
support.
Rapid, Semi rapid and Auxiliary burners
To light a burner:
push in the relevant control knob and turn it anticlockwise to maximum
position (
).
Dual burner
The dual burner consist of two
crowns that can be lighted
simultaneously or separately.
To light the dual burner:
push in the relevant control
knob and turn it
counterclockwise to maximum
position (
) (Fig.1).
The flame will switch on
immediately in both burner
crowns.
To light just the internal crown push in the knob and turn it clockwise
to maximum position ( ) (Fig.1).

After lighting the flame, keep the knob
pushed down for about 5 seconds. This
will allow the "thermocouple" (Fig. 2 - lett.
D) to be heated and the safety device to
be switched off, otherwise the gas supply
would be interrupted.
Then adjust the flame as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the
control knob to off position, and try again.
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 cannot light the flame even
after several attempts, check the
"cap" and “crown” are in the
correct position.
In the absence of electricity, ignition can
occur without the electrical device; in this
case, approach the burner with a flame,
push the relevant knob down and turn it
anti-clockwise until it reaches the
“maximum” position.
Do not keep the control knob pressed for
more than 15 seconds.
If the burner does not light even after 15
seconds, release the control knob, turn
it the "off" position and wait for at least one minute before trying
to light the burner again.
If the burner accidentally goes out, turn the control knob to the
"off" position and wait for at least 1 minute before trying to light
the burner again.
Make sure pots do not protrude over the edges of the cooktop and that they
are centrally positioned on the rings in order to obtain lower gas consumption.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your
local Service Force Centre.

As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will
barely keep the liquid simmering.
Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the
recommended size, the flame will spread beyond the bottom
of the vessel, causing the handle to overheat.
Carefully supervise cooking with fat or oil, since these types of
foodstuff can result in a fire, if over-heated.
The stainless steel can become tarnished if excessively
heated. Therefore prolonged cooking with potstones,
earthenware pans or cast-iron plates is inadvisable. Also, do
not use aluminium foil to protect the top during use.
Make sure pots do not protrude over the edges of the
cooktop and that they are centrally positioned on the rings
in order to obtain lower gas consumption.
Do not place unstable or deformed pots on the rings: they
could tip over or spill their contents, causing accidents.
Pots must not enter the control zone.
Using the hob correctly
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, it is strongly recommended that
you use only pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of the burner
used, so that flame will not spread beyond the bottom of the vessel (see the
table below).
