Lighting The Burners; For Correct Use Of The Hob - Elba EGH-E9502G Owner's Manual

LIGHTING THE BURNERS

To obtain a flame more easily, light the burner before placing a cooking
utensil on the trivet.
To light a burner, push the knob of the burner fully down and turn it
anticlockwise to the "maximum flow" setting symbol. After lighting the
flame, keep the knob pressed for about 5 seconds. This is necessary
to heat up the thermocouple and activate the safety valve, which would
otherwise cut off the gas flow.
Always check that the flame is even and turn the control knob to adjust
the flame as required.
In the instance of a power cut, replace a new battery at the bottom of the
appliance. Otherwise, manually place a flame near the burner and proceed as
already described.
If the flame does not light after a few attempts, check that the burner cap and
burner base are correctly positioned.
To turn off the flame, turn the control knob clockwise to the "OFF" symbol.
Before removing pans from the burners, always lower or turn off the flame.

FOR CORRECT USE OF THE HOB

For lower gas consumption and better efficiency, use only flat-bottomed pans
of dimensions suitable for the burners, as shown in the table at the bottom.
Also, as soon as a liquid comes to the boil take care to turn the flame down to
a level that will just keep it boiling.
