GAS BURNERS

Each burner is controlled by a gas tap
which opens and closes the gas supply.
Line the control knob symbol up with the
indicator on the control panel (fig. 3.1) to
obtain:

– symbol

: off

– symbol

: full on

(maximum rate)

– symbol

: minimum rate

To reduce the gas flow to minimum,
rotate the knob anti-clockwise to point
the indicator towards the small flame
symbol.

The maximum setting permits rapid boil-
ing of liquids, whereas the minimum set-
ting allows slower warming of food or
maintaining simmering conditions of liq-
uids.
Other intermediate operating can be
achieved by positioning the control knob
indicator between the maximum and
minimum setting, but not between the
maximum and off positions.

LIGHTING THE BURNERS

To ignite the burner:

1) Lightly press and turn the knob anti-

clockwise and position the knob
symbol

to the indicator printed

on the control panel (fig. 3.2).

2) Press the knob to operate the electric

ignition; or, in the case of a mains
failure light the burner with a match or
lighted taper.

3) Adjust the burner according to the

setting required.

Caution!
the cooktop becomes very hot
while in operation.
Keep children away.
