6.  USING THE  HOB 
 
Lighting the hob burners 
 
 
 
 
 
Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame diffuser rings are 
correctly in place with their respective burner caps, making sure that the 
holes A in the flame diffusers are aligned with the plugs and thermocouples. 
The special pan stand B is for use with woks. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The burner it controls is shown next to each 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. 
Keep the knob pressed down for about 2 seconds to allow the thermocouple 
to heat up. The burner may go out when the knob is released: this means 
that the thermocouple has not warmed up enough. Repeat the operation, 
keeping the knob pressed down for longer.  
 
 
 
 
 
If the burners should go out accidentally a safety device will be tripped 
about 20 seconds later, cutting off the gas supply even if the gas tap is 
open.
