Correct positioning of the flame-spreader
crowns and burner caps
Before lighting the hob burners, make sure that
the flame-spreader crowns are correctly
positioned in their housings with their respective
burner caps. Make sure that the holes 1 in the
flame-spreader crowns are aligned with the
igniters 3 and thermocouples 2. Also ensure that
the flame-spreader crowns are correctly
engaged in the burner holes.
Correct positioning of the pan supports
Under the pan supports there are silicone rests
with a hole that must be centred onto the
matching fixing pins on the surface.
Make sure that the pan supports are simply
centred on their respective burners, without
forcing them to be raised or tilted. If they are,
repeat the positioning procedure.
If you find that a pan is particularly unstable,
make sure that the grids have not been
positioned incorrectly.
