6. USING THE HOB

6.1 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.

On models equipped with valves, once the burner has ignited, keep the
knob pressed down for a few 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.
Wait a few moments and repeat the operation, keeping the knob pressed
down for longer. This is not necessary on burners not equipped with
thermocouple.
Once the burner has been ignited, the flame can be regulated as
required.
After each use of the hob, always check that the control knobs are
turned to (off).

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.
