Using the hob

Lighting the burners
For each BURNER knob there is a full ring showing the
strength of the flame for the relevant burner.
To light one of the burners on the hob:
1. Bring a flame or gas lighter close to the burner.
2. Press the BURNER knob and turn it in an
anticlockwise direction so that it is pointing to the
maximum flame setting .
3. Adjust the intensity of the flame to the desired level
by turning the BURNER knob in an anticlockwise
direction. This may be the minimum setting , the
maximum setting  or any position in between the two.
If the appliance is fitted with an electronic lighting
device* (see figure), press and then hold the BURNER
knob down and turn it in an anticlockwise direction,
towards the maximum flame setting, until the burner is
lit.The burner may be extinguished when the knob is
released. If this occurs, repeat the operation, holding
the knob down for a longer period of time.
! If the flame is accidentally extinguished, switch off the
burner and wait for at least 1 minute before attempting
to relight it.
If the appliance is equipped with a flame failure
safety device*, press and hold the BURNER knob for
approximately 2-3 seconds to
keep the flame alight and to
activate the device.
Check that the gas has been
lit. If the burner fails to ignite
try again. If the burner fails to
ignite after 3 attempts, wait a few minutes for the gas to
disperse before making any further attempts.
If the burner still fails to ignite, a match or lighting
device can be used, but care must be taken. If the
problem persists, contact place of purchase or their
appointed agent for service.
If the flame has excessive yellowing, or appears to lift
off the burner ports, or makes a loud noise, turn the
burner off and call your service agent.

Lighting the burners for the first time
If the appliance is being used for the first time, or if it
has not been used for a long period of time, it may be
necessary to purge the gas lines of excess air before
you can successfully light the burners.
To do this, turn each burner to High for 10-15 seconds
and press the ignition button several times. If the
burner does not light, repeat this procedure twice
more. Wait 1-2 minutes for any gas build up to disperse
before allowing any further gas flow.
Practical advice on using the burners
For the burners to work in the most efficient way
possible and to save on the amount of gas consumed,
it is recommended that only pans that have a lid and
a flat base are used. They should also be suited to the
size of the burner.
Do not use pans which are unstable or which have a
warped or damaged base.
Ensure the pot sits securely on the trivet and is centred
above the burner.
To identify the type of burner, please refer to the
diagrams contained in the "Technical Specifications".
Using the oven
! The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty
oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature
for at least half an hour. Ensure that the room is well
ventilated before switching the oven off and opening
the oven door. The appliance may emit a slightly
unpleasant odour caused by protective substances
used during the manufacturing process burning away.
! Before operating the product, remove all plastic film
from the sides of the appliance.
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven;
this will avoid the enamel coating being damaged.
