position allows slower warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of liquids.

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.

valve).
3 – Adjust the gas valve to the desired power.
Important:
