LIGHTING THE BURNERS
To ignite the burner, the following instruc-
tions are to be followed:
1 . Press in the corresponding knob and
turn counter-clockwise (fig. 3.2) to the
full flame position marked by the
symbol (fig. 3.1); hold the knob in unt il
the flame has been lit .

In the case of a mains failure light the
burner with a match or lighted taper .
2 . Wait for a few seconds after the gas
burner has been lit before letting go of
the knob (valve activation delay) .
3 . Adjust the gas valve to the desired po-
sition .
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
0
the closed position, wait for at least 1
minute and then repeat the lighting proce-
dure .
If your local gas supply makes it difficult to
light the burner with the knob set to maxi-
mum, set the knob to minimum and repeat
the operation .
DEEP FAT FRYING
For safety purposes when deep fat frying,
do not fill the pan more than one third full
of oil .
DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO
NOT leave the pan unattended .
In the unfortunate event of a fire, leave
the pan where it is and turn off the control
knobs .
Place a damp cloth or lid over the pan to
smother the flames. Leave the pan to cool
for at least 30minutes before moving the
pan .
DO NOT USE WATER ON THE FIRE .

CHOICE OF THE BURNER
On the control panel, near every knob the-
re is a diagram that indicates which burner
is controlled by that knob .
The suitable burner must be chosen accor-
ding to the diameter and the capacity used .
As an indication, the burners and the pots
must be used in the following way:
DIAMETERS OF PANS WHICH MAY
BE USED ON THE BURNERS
BURNERS MINIMUM
Auxliliary 12 cm
Semi-rapid 16 cm
Triple-ring 26 cm
Wok
do not use pans with concave or con-
vex bases
It is important that the diameter of the pot
be suitable to the potentiality of the burner
so as not to compromise the high output
of the burners and therefore energy waste .
A small pot on a large burner does not give
you a boiling point in a shorter amount of
time since the capacity of heat absorption
of a liquid mass depends on the volume
and the surface of the pot .
