Miele GAS KM 81-2 - Manual (Page 11)

Burner
Before using for the first time, take
heed of the “Warning and Safety
Instructions”.
Burner control
The inner and outer burner are both
controlled by one knob.
The burner control knob may only
be turned counter-clockwise and
back in a clockwise direction. Other-
wise the control could be damaged.
The flame strength can be selected:
X Gas switched off
&
Strong flame (outer and inner rings
both produce high flames)
& Low flame (outer ring on low,
inner ring on high)
& Intermediate state b (provides
ignition for outer ring from inner ring)
/
Very low flame (inner ring on high,
outer ring off)
/ Simmer setting (inner ring on low,
outer ring off)
The gas flame is lit by electrical ignition.
When the burner control is pressed in the
strong flame position, a spark passes from
the electrode to the burner and ignites the
gas to give a flame (see page 11).
The burner is equipped with an ignition
safety device. If a gas flame goes out, for
example, if food boiled over, or if there
was a sudden draft, the ignition safety
control cuts off the supply of gas in a
maximum of 90 seconds.
Instructions for using the gas
burner
Place the wok or the pan on the
wok/pan support.
A trivet is supplied with the gas cook-
top. It is designed to sit on the wok/
pan support when using small pans.
The trivet should only be used on the
burner with a simmer setting. It should
only be used with pans with a diameter
of less than 4" (10 cm).
