4.1 Use of gas burners
Ignition of the burners
To determine which knob controls which burner, check the position symbol
above the knob.
Manual Ignition
•
If your appliance is not equipped with any ignition aid or in case there is a
failure in the electricity network, follow the procedures listed below
To ignite one of the burners, press and turn its knob counter-clockwise so that
the knob is in max. position, approach a match, taper or another manual aid to
its upper circumference. Move the ignition source away as soon as you see a
stable flame.
Electrical Ignition
•
Electrical ignition of gas burners can be done in two ways; depending on the
configuration of your appliance
Ignition by Spark Button: Press the valve of the burner you want to operate
and turn the valve in the counter-clockwise direction so that the knob is in max.
position and with your other hand, press the ignition button at the same time.
Press the ignition button immediately, because if you wait, a build up of gas
may cause the flame to spread. Continue pressing the ignition button until you
see a stable flame on the burner.
Ignition Through Hob Valve (micro switch): Press the valve of the burner
you want to operate and turn the valve in the counterclockwise direction
(clockwise for the grill burner) so that the knob is in max. position while
keeping the knob pressed. The spark plugs will generate sparks as long as you
keep the control knob pressed. The micro switch placed under the knob will
automatically create sparks through the spark plug of the burner. Continue
pressing the knob until you see a stable flame on the burner.
Flame safety device:
Hob Burners (If your hob is equipped with gas safety device)
Hobs equipped with flame failure device provide security in case of accidentally
extinguished flame. If such a case occurs, the device will block the burners gas
channels and will avoid any accumulation of unburned gas. Wait 90 seconds
before re-igniting an extinguished gas burner
