Start-up and use

! The position of the corresponding gas burner or electric

hotplate* is shown on every knob.

Gas burners

Each burner can be adjusted to one of the following settings

using the corresponding control knob:

● Off

Maximum

Minimum

To light one of the burners, hold a lit match or lighter near

the burner and, at the same time, press down and turn the

corresponding knob anti-clockwise to the maximum setting.

Since the burner is tted with a safety device, the knob

should be pressed for approximately 6 seconds to allow

the automatic device keeping the ame alight to heat up.

When using models with an ignition button, light the desired

burner by rst pressing the gas burners button (identiable

by the symbol), then pressing down the corresponding

knob as far as possible and turning it anticlockwise towards

the maximum setting.

! If a ame is accidentally extinguished, turn off the control

knob and wait for at least 1 minute before trying to relight it.

To switch off the burner, turn the knob in a clockwise

direction until it stops (when reaches the “●” position).

Practical advice on using the burners

To ensure the burners operate efciently:

• Use appropriate cookware for each burner (see table)

so that the ames do not extend beyond the bottom of

the cookware.

• Always use cookware with a at base and a cover.

• When the contents of the pan reach boiling point, turn

the knob to minimum.
