8. USING THE COOKING HOB
8.1 Lighting the burners
Before lighting the hob burners, check that the flame-spreader crowns are
correctly in place with their respective burner caps, making sure that the holes A
in the flame-spreaders are aligned with the igniters and thermocouples.
Before lighting the burners, lift the glass lid (optional, not provided as
standard); before closing it again, turn off all burners and wait for them to cool.
The optional pan stand B is for use with woks.
To avoid deterioration of the hob, the cooker comes complete with a raised pan
stand C for use underneath pans more than 26 cm in diameter.
The reduction C supplied is for use with small pans as well.
The burner controlled by each knob is shown next to the knob.
The appliance is equipped with an electronic ignition device.
Simply press the knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the
maximum flame symbol , until the burner lights. If it does
not light in the first 15 seconds, position the knob on and
wait at least 60 seconds before trying to light it again.
On valved models, once the burner is lit, keep the knob pressed for a few
seconds to give the thermocouple time 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 keeping the knob pressed for
longer. This is not necessary on burners that are not equipped with a
thermocouple.
On models with a thermocouple, if the burners should go out accidentally, a
safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply even if the gas tap is
open. In this case, turn the knob to the OFF position and wait at least 60
seconds before trying to light the burner again.
