To fully understand this booklet, check which model you have just purchased.
Each model has:
• tempered glass hob; above each knob, a diagram indicating the burner to which the knob refers;
• 1/2/3 burners. Each burner consists of: metal cover; aluminium fame divider resistant to high
temperatures (PYRAL); stainless steel heat shield flange with built-in pan stand; heat-sensitive element
(safety cut-off switch).
• plastic knobs;
• pan restraint column, to fit into the appropriate position to guarantee the stability of the pans. To
order.
2. TO LIGHT THE BURNERS
• make sure that the gas main is open. Press and turn the burner knob anticlockwise to the maximum
(big flame) position, as shown in figure 1. These position is easily recognised by a small mechanical
stop. At this point, approach the flame with a lit match or electric lighter and press the knob down.
Keep the knob pressed for a few seconds, then release it. This operation is necessary to activate the
gas safety device (cut-off switch). This is a thermo-electric device which guarantees the cut-off of the
gas supply in a few seconds if the flame accidentally goes out.
• When the burner is lit, turn the knob to the minimum position (small flame, figure 1), then place the
container on the pan stand.
• Turn the knob to the required flame intensity.
• Should the flames accidentally go out, turn the burner control knob off and wait at least 1 min
before attempting to light it again
NOTE: To switch off the burner, turn the knob clockwise to align the index with the off position
(solid spot ● or empty dot ○ ).
When the appliance is not in use, make sure that the knobs are always in the off position.
Should the rotation of the control knob become stiff, contact the Technical Assistance as soon as
possible. Do not attempt to reset or dismantle the hob.
