USING THE COOKTOP
Lighting the burners
A diagram is screened beside each knob on the control panel of your cooktop. This diagram indicates to
which burner the knob in question corresponds. After having opened the gas main or bottled gas tap,
light the burners as described below:
The knobs of the burners are equipped with a safety cut-off device. They must be turned in a counter-
clockwise direction until they reach the full-on position (large flame icon, Fig. 8) and come to a stop. Now
push down on the knob. The burner should ignite in 2 or 3 seconds. Keep the knob depressed as you
turn
it toward the reduced rate position (small flame icon, Fig. 8) to adjust the flame. Should the flame
accidentally go out, turn the burner control knob off and wait at least 1 minute before attempting to light
it
again.

Proper use of the burners
To achieve maximum efficiency with the least possible gas consumption, keep the following instructions
in mind:
•
Use the correct pan size for each burner. (See the following table and Fig. 9.)
•
When the pan comes to a boil, set the knob to a reduced rate position (small flame icon, Fig. 8).
•
Always put lids on the pans.
•
Use only flat-bottomed pans.
