Risk of fire with overheated food!
Unattended food can overheat and
ignite.
Do not leave the cooktop unattended
whilst it is being used.

Switching on

 Press in the relevant control knob and
turn it anti-clockwise to the large
flame symbol. The ignition electrode
will "click" and ignite the gas.
When a control knob is activated, a
spark is automatically generated on all
burners. This is normal and does not
indicate a fault.
 When a flame is visible, keep the
control knob pressed in for 5–
10 seconds, and then let it go.
 If the burner has not ignited or goes
out, turn the control knob to the
 position. Aerate the room or wait for
at least one minute before trying
again. Try keeping the control knob
pressed in for a little longer the next
time.
 If the burner does not ignite the
second time, turn the control back to
the  position and see "Problem
solving guide".
Switching on during a power outage
If there is an interruption to the
electricity supply, the gas can be
ignited manually, e.g. with a match.
 Press down the relevant control knob
and turn it anti-clockwise to the large
flame symbol.
 Hold the control knob pressed down
and light the gas at the burner with a
match.
 Keep the control knob pressed down
for a further 5-10 seconds and then
release it.
