VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
The appliance must be installed in compliance with applicable local regulations
concerning ventilation and the evacuation of exhaust gases.
Intensive and prolonged use may require extra ventilation, e.g. opening a window,
or more ecient ventilation increasing the mechanical suction power if this is tted.
CHOOSING SUITABLE SURROUNDINGS
The room where the gas appliance is to be installed must have a natural ow of air so that
the gas can burn (in compliance with applicable local regulations).
The ow of air must come directly from one or more openings made in the outside walls
with a free area of at least 100 cm
2
(or refer to applicable local regulations).
The openings should be near the oor and preferably on the side opposite the exhaust for
combustion products and must be made so that they cannot be blocked from either the
inside or the outside.
When these openings cannot be made, the necessary air can come from an adjacent
room which is ventilated as required, as long as it is not a bed room or a danger area (in
compliance with applicable local regulations).
In this case, the kitchen door must allow the passage of the air.
DISCHARGING PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION
Extractor hoods connected directly to the outside must be provided, to allow the products
of combustion of the gas appliance to be discharged (g. 1.3).
If this is not possible, an electric fan may be used, attached to the external wall or the
window; the fan should have a capacity to circulate air at an hourly rate of 3-5 times the
total volume of the kitchen (g. 1.4).
The fan can only be installed if the room has suitable vents to allow air to enter, as described
under the heading “Choosing suitable surroundings”.

BRUCIATORI A GAS
Gas ow to the burners is adjusted by
turning the knobs (illustrated in g. 2.1a or
2.1b) which control the safety valves.
Turning the knob, so that the indicator line
points to the symbols printed on the panel,
achieves the following functions:
– symbol closed valve
– symbol
or
maximum
aperture or ow
– symbol
or
minimum
aperture or ow
■ The maximum aperture position
permits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas
the minimum aperture position allows
slower warming of food or maintaining
boiling conditions of liquids.
■ To reduce the gas ow to minimum
rotate the knob further anti-clockwise
to point the indicator towards the small
ame symbol.
■ 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.
HOW TO USE THE COOKTOP

NOTE:
The knob and symbols may vary.
N.B. When the cooktop is not being
used, set the gas knobs to their
closed positions and also close the
cock valve on the gas bottle or the
main gas supply line.
Caution!
The cooking hob becomes very hot
during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.

LIGHTING THE BURNERS
To ignite the burner, the following
instructions are to be followed:
1. Press in the corresponding knob and
turn counter-clockwise (g. 2.2a or
2.2b) to the full ame position marked
by the “
”
or “
”
symbol
; hold
the
knob in until the ame 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
position.
If the burner ame should go out for some
reason, the safety valve will automatically
stop the gas ow.
To re-light the burner, return the knob to
the closed “ ” position, wait for at least
1 minute and then repeat the lighting
procedure.
Note: If your local gas supply makes it
dicult to light the burner with the knob set
to maximum, set the knob to minimum and
repeat the operation.
DUAL BURNER - SOME MODELS
ONLY
The Dual Burner is a very exible burner
which allows dierent regulations and
optimal cooking.
It is composed by one inner and one outer
crown: the inner and outer crown can be
used together or separately.
The Dual burner is controlled by two
separate knobs:
■ one knob for the inner crown
only (“ ” symbol identifying the
control knob)
;
■ one knob for the outer crown only
(“ ” symbol identifying the control
knob).
The Dual burner can be used:
■ as a small burner (ame produced
only by the inner crown);
■ as a Ultra-rapid burner (ame
produced only by the outer crown);
■ as a high-power burner (all ames
produced simultaneously by inner and
outer crown).
IMPORTANT: After using the
dual burner check both the
control knobs are in the
closed “ ” position.
Fig. 2.2b

CHOICE OF THE BURNER
On the control panel, near every knob there is a diagram that indicates which burner is
controlled by that knob.
The suitable burner must be chosen according to the diameter and the capacity used.
The burners and pans must be used in accordance with the following instructions:
DIAMETERS OF PANS WHICH MAY BE USED ON THE BURNERS
BURNERS MINIMUM MAXIMUM
Auxiliary
(*)
12 cm 14 cm
Semi-rapid 16 cm 24 cm
Rapid 24 cm 26 cm
Double-ring compact 26 cm 28 cm
Double-ring 26 cm 28 cm
Dual (inner crown only) (*) 20 cm 24 cm
Dual (outer crown only) 26 cm 28 cm
Dual (inner+outer crown)
26 cm 28 cm
Wok (**) - Max 36 cm
do not use pans with concave or convex bases
(*) with small pan adapter (optional): minimum diameter 6 cm
(**) only for the models with Double-ring compact, Double-ring or Dual burner and
with wok pan adapter supplied
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. Too large a pot can cause damage to the burner and surrounding hob area.
CAUTION: Make sure the pans are central to the burner for maximum stability and greater
eciency.
Make sure the pans are not in contact with the control knobs, otherwise the ame could
overheat the knobs and permanently damage them.
