
Risk of fire with overheated food.
Unattended food can overheat and
catch alight.
Do not leave the hob unattended
whilst it is being used.

Switching on

 Press in the relevant rotary control
and turn it anticlockwise to the large
flame symbol. The ignition electrode
will "click" and ignite the gas.
When the rotary control is operated, a
spark is automatically produced on all
burners. This is normal and does not
indicate a fault.
 When a flame is visible, keep the
rotary control pressed down for 5–
10 seconds, and then let it go.
 If the burner does not ignite, turn the
rotary control to the  position.
Ventilate the room or wait for at least
1 minute before trying again. When
making another ignition attempt, it
may be necessary to hold the rotary
control for longer.
 If the burner does not ignite the
second time, turn the rotary control
back to the  position and see
"Problem solving guide".

Adjusting the flame

The burners can be regulated at any
level between the strongest and
weakest flame.
As the outer part of the flame is much
hotter than the centre, the tips of the
flames should stay beneath the pan
base. Flame tips which extend beyond
the sides of the pan merely warm up
the air in the room and can also
damage pan handles and increase the
danger of injury.
 Adjust the flame so that it does not
spread out beyond the sides of the
pan.
Wok burner
Depending on the type of control knob,
there may be a stopper between the
low and high settings at the 6 o'clock
position.
 Press the control knob down lightly to
move past this resistance.

Switching off

 Turn the rotary control clockwise to
the  position.
The gas supply is cut off and the flame
goes out.
