HOB OPERATION
The burners are fitted with automatic ignition and a
thermocouple safety device, which automatically cuts off
the gas from the burner in a few seconds if the flame
accidentally goes out during operation.
The burners differ in size and power. Choose the most
appropriate one for the diameter of the cookware being
used.
Each burner can be regulated with the corresonding control
knob "M" by using one of the following settings:
Off
High flame
Low flame
The symbols
near the knobs show the position of the
relative burner on the hob.
To ignite a burner, proceed as follows:
• turn the relative knob counter-clockwise until the pointer
is on the high-flame symbol;
• press the knob down fully and activate the automatic gas
ignition marked with the symbol
• keep the knob pressed down for about 10 seconds with
the flame lit to allow the safety thermocouple to be heated;
• release the knob, checking that the flame is stable. If it is
not, repeat the operation.
For minimum power, turn the knob towards the low flame
symbol. Intermediate positions are possible by simply
putting the knob anywhere between the high and the low
flame symbol.
To turn off the burner, turn the knob clockwise to the off
position " " .
Important:
• Do not activate the automatic ignition device for more
than 15 consecutive seconds.
• Difficulty in ignition is sometimes due to air inside the
gas duct.
• If a burner flame accidentally goes out, the gas continues
to exit for a few moments before the safety device
activates. Turn the control knob to the off position and do
not attempt ignition again for at least 1 minute, thereby
letting the gas disperse, which could otherwise be a
danger.
• When the appliance is not in operation, check that the
knobs are in the off position " ". The main gas supply
cut-off cock should also be closed.
Using the burners
To obtain maximum efficiency from the burners, it is
advisable to only use pans with a diameter suitable for the
burner being used, so that the flame does not extend beyond
the pan base (see following table). When a liquid starts
boiling, it is advisable to turn the flame down just enough to
keep the liquid simmering.

The hob is fitted with two pan reducing
supports (fig.1), which should only be used
on the auxiliary burner "A" and on the
Double Flame "D" (DC-DR internal).
The "separate double flame" burner
This burner consists of two concentric burners which can
operate either together or separately.
Use of the double flame on the maximum setting gives a
very high power which reduces cooking times with respect
to conventional burners.
Moreover the double flame crown provides a more uniform
distribution of heat on the bottom of the pan, when using
both burners on minimum.
Pots and pans of all sizes can be used. In the case of the
smaller pots and pans we recommend the use of only the
internal burner.
There is a separate control knob for each of the "separate
double flame" burners.
The knob marked by the symbol

To turn on one of the rings, press the relative knob in all the
way and turn it anti-clockwise to the high setting
burner is fitted with an electronic igniter that automatically
starts when the knob is pressed in.
Since the burner is equipped with a safety device "F",
after lighting the burner keep the knob pressed in for about
6 seconds to allow the device which keeps the flame lit
automatically to heat up.
To obtain the best results with the cooktop, several
fundamental rules should be followed while cooking or
preparing food. Use cookware with a flat bottom to make
certain that the pot sets properly on the cooking area.
