Hob burner control knobs

The symbols on the knobs mean:

z = no gas supply

= maximum gas supply

= minimum gas supply

For easier lighting, proceed before putting a pan on the pan support.

Lighting the burners

)

Push the relevant knob down and turn it anti-clockwise until it reaches the "maximum" position.

Then, check the flame is regular and adjust it as required.

If you cannot light the flame even after several attempts, check the "cap" and “crown” (see figure 1 - lett. are in the correct position.

When switching on the mains, after installation or a power cut, it is quite normal for the spark generator to be activated automatically.

In the absence of electricity, ignition can occur without the electrical device; in this case approach the burner with a flame, push the relevant knob down and turn it anti-clockwise until it reaches the "maximum" position.

Do not keep the control knob pressed for more than 15 seconds.

B - Burner crown C - Ignition candle

If the burner does not light even after 15 seconds, release the control knob, turn it the "off" position and wait for at least one minute before trying to light the burner again.

To put the flame out, turn the knob to

Using the hob

Practical hints

For the correct use of the burners

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of the burner used.

Rapid Burner diameter 18-26 cm Semi-rapid Burner diameter 12-22 cm Auxiliary Burner diameter 8-16 cm

• For easier lighting, proceed before

putting a pan on the pan support.

• Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.

• Take care when frying food in hot

oil or fat, as the overheated

splashes could easily ignite.

• If you use a saucepan which is smaller

than the recommended size, the flame

will spread beyond the bottom of the

vessel, causing the handle to overheat.

• Prolonged cooking with

potstones, earthenware pans or

cast-iron plates is inadvisable.

Also, do not use aluminium foil to

protect the top during use.

• Make sure pots do not protrude over

the edges of the cooktop and that they

are centrally positioned on the rings in

order to obtain lower gas

consumption.

• Do not place unstable or deformed

pots on the rings: they could tip over or

spill their contents, causing accidents.

• Pots must not enter the control zone.

• If the control knobs become difficult to

turn, please contact your local Service

Force Centre.

• As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn

down the flame so that it will barely

keep the liquid simmering.
