Switching On The Burner; Switching On During A Power Failure - Miele 11 918 970 Operating Instructions Manual

Switching on the burner

Do not turn the control knob clockwise
past the Off position.
When a control knob is activated, a
spark is developed automatically on all
burners. This is normal and does not
indicate a fault.
You may notice a brief re-ignition (1–
2 clicks) when turning on the
appliance, e.g., because of a draft.
 Push in the control knob for the
burner required and turn it
counterclockwise to High.
The ignitor "clicks" and ignites the gas.
 If the burner fails to ignite, turn the
control knob to the Off position.
Aerate the room or wait at least
1 minute before trying again.
 If the burner does not ignite the
second time, turn the control knob
back to Off and see "Frequently
asked questions".
