then press it and keep it pressed for about 4-5 seconds. Release the knob and adjust the flame
by turning the knob to the required setting.
Warning:
The ignition device cannot be operated for more than 15".
If the burner has not yet lit after this time, or if it has accidentally gone out, wait 1 minute
before repeating the procedure.
In models with ignition key, turn the gas valve knob to the maximum setting, then press the
ignition key and the knob, and keep them pressed for about 4-5 seconds.
Then release the knob and adjust the flame by turning the knob to the required setting

Using the grids
The hob grids are designed to make the appliance easy and safe to use.
Before each use, check that the grids are firmly positioned and correctly placed on the hob. Also
check that the rubber pads they rest on are intact and properly in place.
Small pan grid (Fig. 3)
This grid is only for placing on the auxiliary burner (smallest burner) grid when using small-diameter
pans, to prevent them from tipping.
Special WOK grid (Fig. 4)
This grid is only for placing on the triple flame burner grid when using WOK pans (with concave
bottoms).
Never use wok pans without this special grid, and do not use this grid for flat-
bottomed pans
; this may cause serious burner malfunctions
Choosing the burner
The symbols printed on the control panel (drawing fig.5) beside the knobs indicate the burner to
which the knob corresponds. When choosing the burner to be used, consider the pan's diameter and
capacity (see table)
To prevent loss of the burner's high efficiency, the pan's diameter must be suited to the power of the
burner.
