Control knobs on the gas hob

The knobs for using the gas hob of

the cooker are found on the control
panel. The regulation knobs could be
turned in anti-clockwise direction until
the small flame symbol, and vice-versa
for the larger symbol.

No gas supply

To light a burner:

Your cooker is provided with

automatic integrated ignition:

1. Press the knob corresponding to the

burner ring and turn it anticlockwise
to the “Max” symbol (

). The oven

will light automatically.

2. Make sure the flame is even and turn

the knob to the required setting.
After lighting the flame, keep the

knob pressed for about 5 seconds;
this is the time necessary to deactivate
the safety valve, which would otherwise
stop the delivery of gas. Make sure the
flame is even and turn the knob to the
required setting.

If the flame fails to light after a few

attempts, check that the cap (shown in
figure 1 by letter A) and flame
spreaders (letter B) are in the correct
position.

To turn off the flame, turn the knob

clockwise to the symbol.

To light the burner rings more easily,
ignite them before placing
cookware on the grate.

Do not keep the control knob
pressed for more than 15 seconds.
If the burner does not light even
after 15 seconds, release the
control knob, turn it the “off”
position and wait for at least 1
minute before trying to light the
burner again.
If the burner flame goes out
accidentally, turn the control knob
off and do not try to reignite for at
least 1 minute.
Always lower the flame or turn it
off before removing cookware
from the burners.
