GAS BURNERS
USE OF THE HOB
The flow of gas to the burners is adjusted by the knobs of Fig. 2 which control
the safety closure taps.
Line up the needle of the knob with the
symbols printed on the panel:
✓ full disc
● = tap closed
✓ symbol = max. opening or
max. flow
✓ symbol = min. opening or
min. flow
✓ To light one of the burners, bring a
flame close to the upper part of the
burner, then press and turn the
corresponding knob anticlockwise
until the symbol representing a large
flame (max flow) lines up with the
panel reference.
✓ For reduced flow, turn the knob
further until it stops at the symbol
representing the maximum flame.
✓ Use the maximum flow to bring liquids
to the boil quickly and the reduced
flow to heat foods slowly or for
simmering.
✓ All the operating positions must be
chosen between the maximum and
minimum positions and never
between the maximum position and
off.

press and turn the corresponding knob
to the maximum flow position (large
flame) and keep the knob pressed down
until the gas is lit.
Turn the gas tap to the position required.
Whenever special conditions of the gas
supplied locally make it difficult to light
the burner with the knob in the maximum flow position, repeat the operation
with the knob in the minimum flow position.

CHOICE OF BURNER
The symbols printed on the panel by the
side of the knob indicate the correspondence between knob and burner.
Choose the suitable burner depending
on the cookware diameter and capacity.
The pan diameter should be suitable for
the burner power to make the most of
the burner's high efficiency and not
waste fuel.
A small pan does not boil more quickly
on the large burner.
Attention: During use the hob
becomes very hot under the
cooking zones.
Keep children away.
