Using the Hob Burners
1. Choose the control for the burner you want to use.
2. Press the
ignition switch and at the same time press and hold the burner control in and then turn it
counter-clockwise to the maximum position. Release the Ignition switch only, once the burner is lit.
3. Continue to hold the control in for approximately 10 seconds after the burner has lit. Releasing the control
too soon will extinguish the ame due to the ame Failure device working.
Manual Ignition (in case of electricity failure)
To ignite one of the burners, press and turn the control counter-clockwise so that the control is at
its maximum position. Hold an ignition source (e.g. candle lighter, spark ignitor) close to the upper
circumference of the burner. Move the ignition source away as soon as you see a stable ame. Continue
holding the control in for approximately 10 seconds after the burner has lit. Releasing the control too soon
will extinguish the ame due to the ame failure safety feature.
The control has 3 positions: OFF (
), maximum and minimum . After you have ignited the burner
at the maximum position , you should adjust the ame length for cooking between the maximum and
minimum ame positions. You must not cook with the control between the maximum and
OFF ( ) positions.
4. After ignition, check the ames visually. If you see yellow tipped, lifted or unstable ames; turn the control o,
and once the parts have cooled suciently check the assembly of the burner rings and caps. Also, make sure
that no liquid has entered into the burner cups. If the burner ames go out accidentally, turn the burners o,
and do not try to light them again for at least one minute (to allow the gas to disperse).
5. When turning the hob o, turn the control in a clockwise direction so that the control shows
position in
line with the marking on the control panel.
Flame Failure Device
The ame Failure device (FFD) probe cuts o the gas supply to the burner if the ame is blown out.
When lighting the burner on ame failure models, hold down the control for approximately 5 to 10 seconds after
the burner has lit. Releasing the control too soon will extinguish the ame.
If the ames are accidentally extinguished, turn o the burner and do not try to light it again for at least one
minute (to allow the gas to disperse).
• If the burner does not light within 15 seconds, turn the control o and wait
for at least one minute before trying again.
• After use, always turn the controls to the
position.
