3. ENVIRONMENTAL CARE
3.1 Our environmental care
Pursuant to Directives 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC relating to the reduction of the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic appliances, as well as to the disposal of refuse, the crossed out bin symbol on the appliance indicates that the product, at the end of its working life, must be collected separately from other refuse. Therefore, the user must consign the product that has reached the end of its working life to the appropriate selective collection centres for electrical and electronic refuse, or deliver it back to the retailer when purchasing an equivalent product, on a one for one basis. Adequate selective collection for the subsequent forwarding of the decommissioned product to recycling, treatment and ecologically compatible disposal contributes to avoiding possible negative effects on the environment and on health and promotes the recycling of the materials of which the appliance consists. Illicit disposal of the product by the user will lead to the application of administrative sanctions.
The product does not contain substances in quantities sufficient to be considered hazardous to health and the environment, in accordance with current European directives.
3.2 Your environmental care
Our product's packaging is made of non-polluting materials, therefore compatible with the environment and recyclable. Please help by disposing of the packaging correctly. You can obtain the addresses of collection, recycling and disposal centres from your retailer or from the competent local organisations.
Do not discard the packaging or any part of it, or leave it unattended. It can constitute a suffocation hazard for children, especially the plastic bags.
Your old appliance also needs to be disposed of correctly. Important: hand over your appliance to the local agency authorised for the collection of electrical appliances no longer in use. Correct disposal enables intelligent recovery of valuable materials. Before disposing of your appliance it is important to remove doors and leave
shelves in the same position as for use, to ensure that children cannot accidentally become trapped inside during play. It is also necessary to cut the connecting cable to the power supply network, removing it along with the plug.

5. USING THE HOB
Before lighting the hob burners, check that the flame-spreader crowns are correctly in place with their respective burner caps, making sure that the holes A in the flame-spreaders are aligned with the igniters and thermocouples. For the UR2 double burner, place and fit perfectly the burner caps G and E on the flame-spreader crowns F and D. The latter have to be placed on support C and then fitted in the base B. The supplied pan stand H is for use with woks.
5.1 Lighting the hob burners
The burner controlled by each knob is shown next to the knob. The appliance is equipped with an electrical ignition device. Simply press the knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the maximum
flame symbol , until the burner lights.
10
After lighting, keep the knob pressed down 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, keeping the knob pressed for longer. Once the burner is lit, the flame can be adjusted as required. Always check that the control knobs are in the O (off) position when you finish using the hob. If the burners should go out accidentally, after about 20 seconds a safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas tap is open. In this
case, turn the knob to the OFF position and wait at least 60 seconds before trying to light the burner again.
Instructions for the user
5.2 Practical tips for using the burners
For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption, use pans with a flat, smooth base and a lid that have a suitable size for the burner, thus preventing the flames reaching the sides of the pan (see point “5.3 Cookware diameters”). Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to prevent the liquid from boiling over. To prevent burns or damage to the hob during cooking, all cookware must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob. Take the greatest care when using fats or oils since they may catch fire if overheated.
To prevent burns or damage to the hob or the counter top during cooking, all pans or griddles must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob.
5.3 Cookware diameters
The supplied raised wok pan stand can be used to raise pans ONLY on burners 1 and 2, and for woks ONLY on burners 2 and 3.
