7. USE OF THE HOB

7.1 Lighting of the hob burners

Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame caps are in the

correct position and that their burner caps are in place, making sure
that the holes

A in the flame caps correspond to the spark plugs and

thermocouples.
Before lighting the burners

lift the glass cover; before lowering the

cover, turn off all the burners and wait for them to cool down.

The optional grid B is for use with “woks” (Chinese pans).

To prevent deterioration of the hob we have equipped the cooker with
a raised pan stand

C to be placed underneath pans more than 26 cm

in diameter.
The supplied reduction rest

C is also used for small pans.

The drawing next to each knob shows the
corresponding burner. The appliance has an
electronic lighting device. Simply press and turn
the knob anticlockwise to the minimum flame

symbol

, until the ring is lit. Hold the knob down

for a few seconds to allow the thermocouples to
heat up. The burner may go out when the knob is
released: this is because the thermocouple has
not been sufficiently heated. Repeat the
operation holding down the knob for a little
longer. This operation is not necessary for
burners without thermocouples.

For models with thermocouples, if the burner should accidentally go out,
a safety device will be activated which stops the gas flow even if the tap

is open.
