! The position of the corresponding gas burner is shown on every knob.

Gas cooker hobs are equipped with discrete power adjustment that allows 

for accurately adjusting the flame to 5 different power levels. Thanks to this 

system, gas hobs are also capable of guaranteeing the same cooking results 

for each recipe, as the optimal power level for the desired type of cooking can 

be identified in an easier, more accurate way.

Each burner can be adjusted to one of the following settings using the 

corresponding control knob:

● 

Off

 Maximum

 Minimum

To light one of the burners, hold a lit match or lighter near the burner and, at 

the same time, press down and turn the corresponding knob anti-clockwise 

to the maximum setting.

Since the burner is fitted with a safety device, the knob should be pressed 

for approximately 2-3 seconds to allow the automatic device keeping the 

flame alight to heat up.

When using models with an ignition button, light the desired burner pressing 

down the corresponding knob as far as possible and turning it anticlockwise 

towards the maximum setting.

! If a flame is accidentally extinguished, turn off the control knob and wait for 

at least 1 minute before trying to relight it.

To switch off the burner, turn the knob in a clockwise direction until it stops 

(when reaches the “●” position).

The selected burner can be adjusted - by means of the knob - to 5 different 

power levels. To shift between levels, simply turn the knob towards the 

desired power level.

A click signals the passage from one power level to the other.

The selected power level is indicated by the 
corresponding symbol (symbols 

) 

and, on hobs equipped with a display, by the 

LEDs that turn on (5 = max. power; 1 = min. 

power). The system guarantees accurate 

flame adjustment and uniform cooking 

results by facilitating selection of the desired 

power level.

This gas burner consists of two concentric flame rings that can operate jointly 

or independently (in case of dual-control only).

As the burner is fitted with a safety device, the knob should be pressed 

down for approximately 2-3 seconds until the device keeping the flame 

automatically alight heats up.

Each ring comprising the burner has its own control knob:

The knob marked with the symbol   controls the outer ring. 

The knob marked with the symbol   controls the inner ring.

To activate any one of the two rings, press the corresponding knob and turn 

it anti-clockwise to the maximum power setting  .

The rings comprising the burner are activated through a single control knob. 

To simultaneously turn on both rings, position the knob on the symbol  

 

(max) -   (min) then press and turn the knob anti-clockwise.

To turn on the inner ring only, position the knob on the symbol   (max ) -   

(min) then press and turn the knob clockwise.

(to switch modes, it is necessary to switch off the burner).

To switch off the burner, press and turn the knob clockwise until it stops (when 

it reaches the “●” position).

To ensure the burners operate efficiently:

•  Use appropriate cookware for each burner (see table) so that the flames 

do not extend beyond the bottom of the cookware.

•  Always use cookware with a flat base and a cover.

•  When the contents of the pan reach boiling point, turn the knob to minimum.

! On the models supplied with a reducer shelf, remember that this should be 

used only for the Double flame internal (DCDR internal) burner when you use 

casserole dishes with a diameter under 12 cm.

To identify the type of burner, refer to the designs in the section entitled, “Burner 

and Nozzle Specifications”.
