The appliance is equipped with an electronic ignition device. Simply press the knob and turn it anticlockwise to the maximum flame symbol, until the burner lights. If the burner does not light in the first 15 seconds, turn the knob

to and wait 60 seconds before trying again. After lighting, keep the knob pressed

in for a few seconds to allow the thermocouple to heat up.

The burner may go out when the knob is released: In this case, the thermocouple has not heated up sufficiently. Wait a few moments and repeat the operation. Keep the knob pressed in longer.

In case of an accidental switching off, a safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas tap is open. Return the

knob to and wait at least 60 seconds before lighting it again.

Correct positioning of the grids

Under the grids there are silicone rests with a hole that must be centred onto the matching fixing pins on the surface.

Make sure that the grids are simply centred on their respective burners, without forcing the burners to be raised or tilted. If they are, repeat the positioning procedure.

If you find that a pan is particularly unstable, make sure that the grids have not been positioned incorrectly.
