If the burner does not switch on after 15 seconds,
switch off the control knob and open the door or
window in the room. Wait at least a minute before
igniting the burner again.
It is important to keep the appliance clean. If the
Note:
ignition plugs are dirty, this may cause ignition faults.
Clean the ignition plugs regularly with a small non-
metallic brush. Take care to prevent the ignition plugs
from suffering any heavy knocks.

Safety system

Your hob is equipped with a safety system
(thermocouple) that cuts off the gas when the burners
are accidentally switched off.
To ensure that this device is active:
Switch on the burner as usual.

Without releasing the control knob, press and hold it
2.
down firmly for 4 seconds after lighting the flame.

Switching off a burner

Turn the corresponding control knob clockwise to the 0
setting.
A few seconds after the burner is switched off, a sound
(thud) will be produced. This is not a fault - this means
that the safety device is no longer operating.

Warnings

It is normal to hear a soft whistling noise while the
burner is operating.
When first used, it is normal for the burner to give off
odours. This does not pose any risk and does not
indicate a malfunction. They will disappear in time.
