openings on the burner cup must always be unobstructed. All
parts must be dry.

Use pans which are the right
size for each burner.
Do not use small pans on
large burners. The flame must
not touch the sides of the pan.
Do not use damaged pans,
which do not sit evenly on the
hob. Pans may tip over.
Only use pans with a thick, flat
base.
Do not cook without using a lid
and make sure the lid is
properly fitted. This wastes
energy.
Press and hold the burner knob for approximately 1-3

seconds. The safety pilot is activated. If the gas flame goes
out, the gas supply is automatically interrupted by the safety
pilot.

If the flame goes out again, repeat the process from step 2.

Always place the ovenware
centrally over the burner.
Otherwise, there is a risk that it
may tip over.
Place the pans on the pan
supports, never directly on the
burner.
Make sure that the pan
supports and burner caps are
correctly positioned before
using the appliance.
Pans should be placed on the
hob carefully.
Do not strike the hob and do
not place excessive weight on
it.
Never use two burners or heat
sources to heat one single
pan.
Do not use grill pans,
earthenware casserole dishes,
etc. for a long period of time
on maximum power.
