Switching on manually
1. Press the control knob for the selected burner and
turn it anticlockwise to the highest power setting.
2. Hold an igniter or a naked flame (such as a lighter or
a match) against the burner.
Automatic ignition
If the hob has automatic ignition (ignition plugs):
1. Press the control knob for the selected burner and
turn it anticlockwise to the highest power level.
While the control knob is held down, all the burners
will generate sparks. The flame ignites. Wait a few
seconds.
2. Release the control knob.
3. Turn the control knob to the required position.
If the burner does not ignite, switch it off and repeat the
steps described above. This time, hold the control knob
down for longer (up to 10 seconds).
:Warning – Risk of deflagration!
If the flame does not ignite after 15 seconds, switch off
the burner and open a window or the door to the room.
Wait at least one minute before switching the burner on
again.
Note: It is important to keep the appliance clean. If the
ignition plugs are dirty, this may cause ignition
problems. Clean the ignition plugs regularly with a
small, non-metallic brush. Take care to prevent the
ignition plugs from suffering any heavy knocks.
Safety system
Your hob is equipped with a safety system
(thermocouple) that cuts off the gas when the burners
are accidentally switched off.
To ensure that this device is active:
1. Switch on the burner as usual.
2. Without releasing the control knob, press and hold it
down firmly for 4 seconds after lighting the flame.
Switching off a burner
Turn the corresponding control knob clockwise to the 0
setting.
A few seconds after the burner is switched off, a sound
(thud) will be produced. This is not a fault - this means
that the safety device is no longer operating.
Warnings
It is normal to hear a soft whistling noise while the
burner is operating.
When first used, it is normal for the burner to give off
odours. This does not pose any risk and does not
indicate a malfunction. They will disappear in time.
An orange-coloured flame is normal. This is caused by
the presence of dust in the atmosphere, spilt liquids, etc.
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally
extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not
attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute.

Suitable pans
The cookware must not overhang the edge of the hob.
Precautions for use
The following advice is intended to help you save
energy and prevent pan damage:
Burner Minimum diameter
of the cookware
base
Maximum diameter
of the cookware
base
Wok burner 22 cm 30 cm
High-output burner 20 cm 26 cm
Standard-output
burner
12 cm 22 cm
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.
Always centre the pan over
the burner, not to one side.
Otherwise it could tip over.
Do not place large pans on
the burners near the control
knobs. These may be
damaged by the very high
temperatures.
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.

Table of cooking times
The table below lists the optimal heat settings and
cooking times for various types of food. The information
given applies when cooking four portions.
The cooking times and heat settings may vary
depending on the type of food, its weight and quality, on
the type of gas used, and on the material from which
the cookware is made. To prepare this dish, stainless
steel cookware was mainly used.
Always use cookware that is the right size and place it
in the centre of the burner. You can find information
about the diameter of the cookware under ~ "Suitable
pans"
Information on the table
Each type of food can be prepared in one or two steps.
Each step contains information about the following:
Cooking methods featured in the table
Note: The symbols do not appear on the appliance.
They are used here to represent the various cooking
methods.
Information on how to cook food on the different

describes all of the burners on the hob.~ Page 2
Example:
This example shows the preparation of fish soup using
the high-output burner, the standard-output burner and
the wok burner.
When using the high-output burner (recommended
option), the total cooking time is between 12 and 17
minutes.
■ Step 1: Bring to the boil. Set heat setting 8 for 7-9
minutes.
■ Step 2: Continue boiling. Switch to heat setting 1 for
5-8 minutes.
