Making settings on the hob
Your hob is equipped with four gas burners. The following
information explains how to light the gas burners and set the
size of flame.
Igniting the gas burners
Always position the burner cap exactly over the burner cup.
Openings on the burner cup are always unobstructed. All parts
must be dry.

If there is a power cut or if the ignition plugs are damp, you can

Table - Cooking
Select the right saucepan size for each burner. The diameter of
the pot or pan base should be the same as that of the burner.
Cooking times depend on the type, weight and quality of the
food. Deviations are therefore possible. You yourself can best
judge the optimal cooking time.
Minerals and vitamins are very quickly destroyed during
cooking. Therefore, only use a little water. This will help you
retain vitamins and minerals. Select short cooking times so that
the vegetables remain firm and full of nutrients.
Always place the ovenware
centrally over the burner.
Otherwise, there is a risk that it
may tip over.
Place the pans on the pan
supports, never directly on the
burner.
Make sure that the pan
supports and burner caps are
correctly positioned before
using the appliance.
Pans should be placed on the
hob carefully.
Do not strike the hob and do
not place excessive weight on
it.
Never use two burners or heat
sources to heat one single
pan.
Do not use grill pans,
earthenware casserole dishes,
etc. for a long period of time
on maximum power.
