Each burner can be adjusted to one of the following
settings using the corresponding control knob:
•
Off

To light one of the burners
To light one of the burners, hold a lit match or
lighter near the burner and, at the same time, press
down and turn the corresponding knob anti-
clockwise to the maximum setting.
Since the burner is fitted with a safety device, the
knob should be pressed for approximately 2-3
seconds to allow the automatic device keeping the
flame alight to heat up.
When using models with an ignition button, light the
desired burner by first pressing the gas burners
button (identifiable by the
symbol), then pressing
down the corresponding knob as far as possible and
turning it anticlockwise towards the maximum setting.
Some models are equipped with an ignition switch
incorporated into the control knob. If this is the case,
the ignitor is present, but not the switch (the
symbol is located near each knob).
To light a burner, simply press the corresponding
knob all the way in and then turn it in the counter-
clockwise direction to the "High" setting, keeping it
pressed in until the burner lights.

If a flame is accidentally extinguished, turn off the
control knob and wait for at least 1 minute before
trying to relight it.

Practical advice on using the burners
To ensure the burners operate efficiently:
• Use appropriate cookware for each burner (see
table) so that the flames do not extend beyond the
bottom of the cookware.
• Always use cookware with a flat base and a cover.
• When the contents of the pan reach boiling point,
turn the knob to minimum.
