Burners
x The gas burners are fitted a candle as flame failure device. If the burner flame is
extinguished accidentally or unintentionally, e.g. when some liquid boils over or
when there is draught in the room, gas supply is automatically cut off, thus
preventing the gas from being emitted into the room.
x Gas burner cover should always be placed on the burner crown very carefully. Make
sure the slots on the burner crown are never obstructed.
1. Burner crown cover
2. Burner crown with the support for the burner cover
3. Candle flame failure device
4. Ignition candle
5. Nozzle
Coffe reductor
(only available with some models)
Use the extension when using a pan of a smaller diameter.
Place the extension on the grid above the auxiliary burner.
Pans
x Correctly selected cookware will enable optimum cooking time and gas consumption.
Pan diameter is the most important parameter.
x Use pans which have the right size for each burner.
x Do not use small pans on large burners. The flame should not touch the sides of the
pan.
x For smaller diameter pots and pans (coffee and tea pots, etc.), the power of the burner
being used has to be regulated in order to ensure that the flame laps the bottom of the
pot without spilling over.
x For combustion, the gas also needs air. If a pan is too large, air supply to the burner is
insufficient; as a result, combustion effect is lesser.
x Do not use pots with concave or convex bottoms.
x Always place the pan right over the burner, not to one side. Otherwise it could tip over.
x Place the pans on the pan supports, never directly on the burner. Make sure that the
pan supports and burner caps are correctly positioned before using the appliance.
x Do not place large pans on the burners near the control knobs. These may be damaged
by the very high temperatures.
x Never use two burners or heat sources to heat one single pan.
x Do not use cast iron plates, griddles, earthenware casserole dishes, etc. for a long
period of time on maximum power especially on crystal glass gas hobs.
x Pans should be placed on the hob carefully. Do not strike the hob and do not place
excessive weight on it.
x Stainless steel working table can burnish when subjected to excessive heat. Therefore
we don’t recommend prolonged cooking with soapstone, earthenware pans or cast iron
plates. Avoid the use of aluminum foil to protect the working table during cooking
operation.
x Don't use pan, pots, grills or grilled stones, of bigger size than the maximum
specified for every single burner; in particular you must not cover more burners
simultaneously. The accumulation of heat could damage the appliance.

User’s instructions
This appliance must be used for the purpose it was designed for, i.e. domestic cooking.
Any other use is considered to be improper and therefore dangerous.
The manufacturer will accept no liability for any damage caused by improper, incorrect or
irrational use.
Using the burners
• If the burners are not used for several days, wait a few seconds before lighting them in
order to release any air from the pipes.
• As the burners are fitted with an automatic ignition, to light them simply press and turn th
e
handle to the small star. The appliance uses a spark ignition generator.
• If the flame does not ignite within five seconds, turn the knob back to the “Gas valve
closed” position and repeat the procedure; if the electric ignition should not work due to
a power failure or damp spark plugs, the gas can also be ignited using a match or a gas
lighter.
• For models with a safety tap (which interrupt the gas flow should the flame accidentally
go out) the burners are ignited as described above, but ensure the knob is pressed in
for 5 to 6 seconds after the flame has ignited. After this time, which gives the safety
device enough time to cut-in, the flame will be on permanently.
• The flame can then be set between the maximum and minimum level. Any setting
between “Gas valve closed” and the large flame is not recommended, as the flame is
not stable in this interval and may be extinguished.
• To extinguish the flame and close the burner gas supply, rotate the control knob to the
“Gas valve closed” position.
WARNING: once the appliance has been cleaned, ensure that the burners are firmly in
their seats and do not interfere with the igniter.
WARNING: if the burner flame is extinguished accidentally, turn off the knob and leave it
for at least one minute before trying to re-ignite it.
WARNING: The gas cooking appliance use may cause heat, humidity and products of
combustion in the room where is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated
especially when the appliance is in use: keep open any natural ventilation holes or install
a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood). Prolonged intensive use of
the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening of a window, or
more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical ventilation
where present.

x dishwasher cleaner
x grill and oven cleaners
x glass cleaning agents
x hard, abrasive brushes or sponges, e.g. pot scourers, brushes or sponges which have
been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents
x sharp pointed objects (these can damage the seal between the frame and the
worktop).
Stainless steel surfaces
Clean stainless steel surfaces using a microfibre cloth or with a solution of warm water
and a little washing-up liquid applied with a soft sponge. In the case of stubborn dried-on
soiling, soak first.
Finally, dry with a soft cloth.
The stainless steel cooktop cleaner can be used to clean the frame when required. Apply
with an even pressure following the direction of the "grain".
The care product for stainless steel can be used after cleaning to help keep your
appliance looking good and to hinder resoiling.
Apply sparingly with a soft cloth following the instructions on the packaging.
Printed surfaces
The printing can be damaged if soiling (e.g. food or fluids that contained salt, olive oil) is
not removed immediately.
Remove any soiling immediately.
Do not use any stainless steel cleaner on printed surfaces. This would rub off the print.
Knob/s
Remove the knob and clean it with a solution of warm water and a little washing-up liquid
applied with a soft sponge. Stubborn soiling should be soaked first.
After cleaning, dry all surfaces with a clean cloth.
Pan support/s
Remove the pan support and clean it with a solution of warm water and a little washingup liquid applied with a soft sponge. Stubborn soiling should be soaked first and then any
soiling can be removed using a soft brush.
After cleaning, let it dry completely.
Do not clean the pan support in a dishwasher.
Burner/s
The burner should be dismantled and then cleaned by hand using a solution of warm
water and a little washing-up liquid applied with a soft sponge.
Parts of the burner that cannot be removed should be wiped clean with a damp cloth
only.
The ignition candle and the candle flame failure device should be very carefully wiped
clean using a well wrung out cloth.
Do not let the ignitor get wet. If it gets wet, it will not spark.
After cleaning, dry all surfaces with a clean cloth.
Make sure that the flame slits are clean and completely dry.
The surface of the burner crown cover will become more matt with time. This is quite
normal and will not affect the operation of the cooktop.
Do not clean any parts of the burner in a dishwasher.

Glass surface
After each use of the glass surface, wait for it to cool down and clean it; otherwise, even
the smallest food residue will be burnt onto the hot surface next time you use the
appliance.
For regular cleaning and maintenance of the glass surface, use special conditioning
agents that form a protective layer on the surface, shielding it from dirt.
Before each use wipe any dust or other particles from the surface and pan bottom as
these could scratch the surface (Fig.1).
x
steel wool;
x
abrasive sponges;
x
abrasive detergents;
x
aggressive sprays;
x
decalcification agents;
can scratch the surface (Fig.1 and Fig.2).
Stubborn and burnt residues can be removed:
x
using special agents and utensils for cleaning the glass surface. When using these
products, follow the instructions provided by their respective manufacturers;
x
using a scraper. Make sure the plastic part of the scraper does not come into contact
with a hot cooking zone. Be careful not to cut yourself with the scraper!
Light stains can be removed by a damp soft cloth; then, wipe the surface dry (Fig.3).
Water stains can be removed using a mild solution of vinegar however, do not use this
solution to clean the frame (only with some models), as it may become dull.
WARNING: Make sure any residues of cleaning agents are thoroughly removed, as they
could damage the glass.
Sugar and sugar-laden food may permanently damage the glass surface (Fig.5);
therefore, they should be removed from the glass surface as soon as possible, although
the cooking zone may still be hot (Fig.4).
Signs and indications on the glass surface may be worn (Fig.2) if are used:
x
aggressive cleaning aids;
x
steel wool;
x
pans with damaged bottom;
Any change in the color of the glass surface:
x
does not affect its operation or the stability of the surface;
x
