the knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the
maximum flame symbol, until the burner ignites. If
the burner does not light in the first 15 seconds,
turn the knob to and wait 60 seconds
before trying again. After lighting, keep the knob
pressed in for a few seconds to allow the
thermocouple to heat up. The burner may go out
when the knob is released: In this case, the
thermocouple has not heated up sufficiently.
Wait a few moments and repeat the operation.
Keep the knob pressed in longer.
Precautions when using the griddle
A few precautions are necessary if you wish to
use a griddle:
• The griddle must not extend beyond the
edge of the hob.
• Do not place the griddle over more than
one burner at the same time.
• The griddle can be pre-heated on the
burner at maximum power for no more than
10 minutes.
• Make sure that the burner flame does not
extend beyond the edge of the griddle.
• Keep a distance of at least 160 mm
between the griddle and the side and/or
rear wall, especially if it is placed on an
Ultra-Rapid burner.
• It is not recommended to use earthenware
or steatite griddles.
• Never use the griddle for more than 40
minutes.
Correct positioning of the flame-spreader
crowns and burner caps
Before lighting the hob burners, make sure that
the flame-spreader crowns are correctly
positioned in their housings with their respective
burner caps. Make sure that the holes in the
burners are aligned with the igniters and
thermocouples. Also ensure that the flame-
spreader crowns are correctly engaged in the
burner holes.
Correct positioning of the pan supports
Under the pan supports there are silicone rests
with a hole that must be centred onto the
matching fixing pins on the surface.
Make sure that the pan supports are simply
centred on their respective burners, without
forcing them to be raised or tilted. If they are,
repeat the positioning procedure.
If you find that a pan is particularly unstable,
make sure that the grids have not been
positioned incorrectly.
