Instruction for the User
Hob burners control knobs
The hob burners control knobs are situated on the hob
right hand side. The symbols on the knobs mean that :
l there is no gas supply
there is maximum gas supply
there is minimum gas supply
Lighting the burners
For easier lighting, proceed before putting a
pan on the pan support.
To light a burner, turn the relevant knob anticlockwise
to maximum position and push down the knob to
F
ignite.
After lighting the flame, keep the knob pushed
down for about 5 seconds. This will allow the
"thermocouple" (Fig. 1 lett. C) to be heated and the
safety device to be switched off, otherwise the gas
supply would be interrupted. Then, check the flame
is regular and adjust it as required.
If you cannot light the flame even after several
attempts, check the "cap" (Fig. 1 lett. A) is in the
correct position.
To put the flame out, turn the knob to the symbol l.
Always turn the flame down or put it out before
taking the pans off the burner.

Using the hob correctly
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, it is strongly
recommended that you use only pots and pans with a
bottom fitting the size of the burner used, so that flame
will not spread beyond the bottom of the vessel (see the
table beside).
It is also advisable, as soon as a liquid starts boiling, to
turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
simmering.
Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.
Carefully supervise cookings with fats or oil,
since these types of foodstuff can result in a fire,
if over-heated.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Disconnect the appliance from the electrical
supply, before carrying out any cleaning or
manteinance work.
Wash the enamelled components with warm soapy
water. Never use abrasive cleaners.
Frequently wash the "caps" and the "crowns" with hot
soapy water, carefully taking away any built-up of food.
The pan supports are dishwasher proof.
If the marks are particularly difficult to remove, use
common non-abrasive cleaners or specific products.
Never use steel wool pads or acids.
Regularly wipe over the hob top and the aluminium
frame using a soft cloth weel wrung out in warm water
to which a little liquid detergent has been added. Avoid
the use of the following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is
recommended that a proper cleaning product is used.
The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic
"candle" and a metal electrode (fig. 1 lett. B). Keep
these components well clean, to avoid difficult lighting,
and check that the burner crown holes (lett. A) are not
obstructed.
The cap and the crown of each burner are secured with
two screws. To separate the two pieces, lift the cap,
turn it upside down, then undo the two fixing screws
as shown in Fig. 3.
After a thorough cleaning, reassemble the two parts
and refit the cap in its correct position on the burner.
Periodic maintenance
Periodically ask your local Service Centre to check the
conditions of the gas supply pipe and the pressure
adjuster, if fitted.
To ensure the good operation of the hob and its safety
features, it is necessary that the taps are periodically
lubricated.

l The periodic lubrication of the taps must be
carried out by qualified personnel, which you
must refer to also in case of malfunctioning.
