7. USING THE COOKING HOB

7.1 Lighting the hob burners

Before lighting the hob burners, check that the flame-spreader crowns are correctly in place with their

respective burner caps, making sure that the holes A in the flame-spreaders are aligned with the plugs

and thermocouples.

Before lighting the burners lift the glass lid; before closing it again, turn off all the burners and wait for

them to cool.

The optional pan stand B is for use with woks.

To prevent damage to the cooking hob, the cooker comes complete with a raised pan stand C for use

underneath pans more than 26 cm in diameter.

The reduction C supplied is for use also with very small pans.

The burner controlled by each knob is shown next to the knob.

The appliance is equipped with an electronic ignition device. Simply press the knob

and turn it counterclockwise to the minimum flame symbol , until it lights. If it does

not light in the first 15 seconds, position the knob on 0 and wait at least 60 seconds

before trying to light it again.

On valved models, once the burner is lit, keep the knob pressed for a few seconds to

give the thermocouple time to heat up. The burner may go out when the knob is

released: in this case, the thermocouple has not heated up sufficiently.

Wait a few moments and repeat the operation keeping the knob pressed for a longer

time. This is not necessary on burners that are not equipped with thermocouple.

On models with thermocouple, if the burners should go out accidentally a safety device will be tripped,

cutting off the gas supply even if the gas tap is open. In this case, turn the knob to the OFF position and

wait at least 60 seconds before trying to light the burner again.

7.2 Practical hints for using the hob burners

For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption: use pans with lids and of suitable size for

the burner, so that the flames do not reach up the sides of the pan (see paragraph “8.3 Using the gas

oven”). Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to prevent the liquid from

boiling over. To prevent burns or damage to the hob during cooking, all pans or griddle plates must be

placed inside the perimeter of the hob. All pans must have smooth, flat bottoms. Take the greatest care

when using fats or oils since they may catch fire if overheated. If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off

the control knob and wait at least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner.
