The igniter should spark and light the gas. Keep holding the

knob pressed in to let the gas through to the burner for about

ten seconds.
If, when you let go of the control knob, the burner goes out,

then the FSD has not been bypassed. Turn the control knob

to the OFF position and wait for one minute before you try

again, this time making sure to hold in the control knob for

slightly longer.
Adjust the flame height to suit by turning the knob. On this

range the low position is beyond high, not between high and

off. The ‘LO’ marks the low position.
Adjust the flame height to suit by turning the knob counter-

clockwise (Fig.2-3).
If a burner flame goes out, turn off the control knob and

leave it for one minute before relighting it.
Make sure flames are under the pans (Fig.2-4). For safety

reasons, adjust the flames so that they do not extend beyond

the edge of the cooking utensil. Using a lid will help the

contents boil more quickly.
Large pans should be spaced well apart.
Pans and kettles with concave bases or down turned base

rims should not be used (Fig.2-5).
Simmering aids, such as asbestos or mesh mats, are

NOT recommended (Fig.2-6). They will reduce burner

performance and could damage the grates.
Avoid using unstable or misshapen pans that may tilt easily

and pans with a very small base diameter e.g. milk pans,

single egg poachers (Fig.2-7).
The minimum pan diameter recommended is 4¾” (12cm) for

the outer burners and 6

” (16cm) for the center burner.

Igniting Cooktop Burners without Electricity

If there is a power failure the cooktop burners can be lit with

a match.

1.

Hold a burning match ½” from the burner head, keeping

your hand as far horizontally away from the burner as

possible.

2.

Push and turn the burner control knob to HI/lighting

position. As soon as the burner flame lights move your

hand away. With your other hand, keep holding the

knob pressed for a few seconds so that the burner safety

device can ‘sense’ the heat of the flame.

3.

Turn the burner control knob to the OFF position when

you have finished using it.
