USING THE HOB
GAS BURNERS
The flow of gas to the burners is controlled by the
knobs (fig. 5), which operate the valves.
Depending
on the version you have chosen, the symbols may be screen-printed on the knobs or on the control
panel.
Lining the pointer up with the screen
-
printed symbols provides the following settings:
Val
ve closed, no gas delivered
Highest setting, maximum gas flow
Lowest setting, minimum gas flow
Lighting the burners
-
Burners without safety valve
To light one of the burners without electric ignition, or in case of a power failure in models with
ignition, place a naked light close to the top of the burner and press the relative knob and turn it anti-
clockwise until the symbol is in line with the marker on the control panel.
To obtain the minimum setting, turn the knob further u
ntil the pointer is in line with the small flame.
All operating settings must always be between the maximum and minimum settings, and
never between the maximum setting and the "off" position.
To turn off the burner, turn the knob clockwise to the "valve closed" position.

Burners with electric ignition
Burners with ignition integrated in the knobs
On these models, the symbol appears next to th (highest power) symbol.
To ignite one of the burners, press the knob and turn it to the maximum setting, then keep it pressed
until the burner lights; after this, adjust the flame by turning the knob to the required setting.
Note:
If specific local gas supply conditions make it difficult to ignite the burner with the knob at the
maximum setting, repeat the operation before placing a pan on the pan-stand, with the knob at the
minimum setting.
-
Burners with safety valve
Some models are fitted with a safety valve which automatically cuts off the gas supply if the burner
cuts out for any r
eason.
To restart operation, return the knob to the setting and repeat the ignition operations described
below.
