6. INSTRUCIONS FOR THE USER
6.1 Using the hob
Before lighting the burners, make sure that the flame-spreader
crowns and respective caps are properly fitted in their housings.
Ensure the flame-spreader holes A are aligned with the ignition
plugs and the thermocouples.
The burner controls are shown next to each knob. The appliance
is equipped with an electronic ignition device. Simply press the
knob and turn it counter-clockwise to the maximum flame symbol
(picture 2), until the burner lights. If it does not light within the
first 15 seconds, turn the knob to off (picture 1)and wait at least
60 seconds before trying to light the burner again.
On models equipped with valves, once the burner has ignited,
keep the knob pressed down for a few seconds to allow the
thermocouple to heat up. The burner may go out when the
knob is released: in this case, the thermocouple has not
heated up enough. Wait a few moments and repeat the
operation, keeping the knob pressed down for longer. Once
the burner has been ignited, the flame can be regulated as
required(picture 3, 4, 5). After each use of the hob, always
check that the control knobs are turned to off.
If the burners should go out accidentally a safety device will be
tripped about 20 seconds later, cutting off the gas supply even if the
gas tap is open. In this case, turn the knob back to the off position
and wait at least 60 seconds before trying to relight the burner.
