Igniting the Burners
In these models the knob controls both ignition and the safety device. Proceed as follows to ignite the burners:
1) Depress the chosen knob and turn to the large flame.
2) Keep the knob depressed for 3 to 4 seconds to allow the spark to ignite the burner and to heat the safety device.
3) Release the knob after about 3 to 4 seconds and adjust the flame to the desired setting by rotating the knob
anti-clockwise. Repeat steps 1 to 3 if the flame does not ignite.
1) The OFF position is identified by a black dot. To shut off a burner depress the control knob and turn the knob
clockwise to the OFF position.
Using the Burners
For greater efficiency and less gas consumption use pots and pans with the right diameters for the burners.
Avoid having flames extending out from underneath the pans (see table).
Automatic Safety Valves
In the event the flame is extinguished during operation, the safety device will automatically shut off gas to the burner.
