How to use the hob
Gas burners
Gas flow to the burners is adjusted by turning the knobs
(illustrated in fig.2) which control the valves.
Turning the knob so that the indicator line points to the symbols
printed on the panel achieves the following functions:
– Symbol
: Tap closed (burner off)
●
– Symbol
: High (maximum)
– Symbol
: Low (minimum)
– The maximum aperture position permits rapid boiling of liquids,
whereas the minimum aperture position allows slower warming
of food or maintaining boiling conditions of liquids.
– To reduce the gas flow to minimum, rotate the knob further
anti-clockwise to point the indicator towards the small flame
symbol.
– Other intermediate operating adjustments can be achieved by
positioning the indicator between the maximum and minimum
aperture positions, and never between the maximum aperture
and closed positions.
Lighting Gas Burners
In order to light the burner, you must:
1 – Press in the corresponding knob and turn counter-clockwise
(fig. 3) to the full flame position marked by the
and hold the knob in until the flame has been lit.
In the case of a mains failure light the burner with a match or
lighted taper.
2 – Wait about ten seconds after the gas lighting before releasing
the knob (starting time for the valve).
3 – Adjust the gas valve to the desired power.
Important
If the burner flame should go out for some reason, the safety
valve will automatically stop the gas flow.
To re-light the burner, return the knob to the closed ● position,
wait for at least 1 minute and then repeat the lighting
procedure.
If your local gas supply makes it difficult to light the burner with
the knob set to maximum, set the knob to minimum and repeat
the operation.
