Ignition of the burners
• Push the knob and turn it left to the symbol “big
flame”.
• At the same time, push the electronic ignition knob.
Keep it pushed until the gas ignites (1 spark /
second).
Or by power cut
Push the corresponding knob in completely and
turn it left to the symbol “big flame” and ignite with
a match.
• Release the knob after 10 seconds and watch that
the burner has ignited (until the safety valve
automatically keeps the burner lit).
• Upon ignition, adjust the flame as required.
If for any reason the flame should extinguish turn off
the relevant control knob, leave for at least one
minute and then re-ignite.
If after a few attempts the burner does not ignite,
check that the burner ring and its cap are correctly
positioned.

Electric hotplates
To switch on a hotplate, turn the relevant control knob
to the required heat setting.
The control knob is numbered 0 – 6
0 Off
1 Minimum
6 Maximum
The hob has two types of hotplates:
Normal Hotplates
We recommend the plates are switched to maximum (6)
for a short while to boost the plate, and then adjusted to
the required setting.
Rapid Hotplate (Back left)
The rapid hotplates indicated by a red spot, will heat up
more quickly than a normal plate.
Over a period of time the red spot may
disappear, this will not affect the performance of the
hotplate.
It is important to note that the hotplate may
smoke and produce a slightly unpleasant odour
when used for the first time. This is quite normal and
will disappear after some time.
Do not put anything on the hob that is liable to
melt. Always remove any spillage from the surface of
the lid before opening, and the appliance should be
allowed to cool before closing the lid. After using the
cooker, the lid MUST NOT be closed until the hob
and oven are completely cold.
Suggestions for the correct setting of the plates are
given in the following table:
OFF 0
Very Gentle 1
To keep food warm
To melt butter and
chocolate
Gentle 2
To prepare cream-sauces,
stews and milk puddings or
to fry eggs
Slow 3
Dried vegetables, frozen
food, fruit, boiling water or
milk
Medium 4
Boiled potatoes, fresh
vegetables, pâtés, soups,
broths, pancakes or fish
High 5
Larger stews, meat roll,
fish, omelettes, steaks
Fast 6
Steaks, escalopes and
frying
Selecting the Correct burner
Above every knob there is a symbol for the
corresponding burner.
For good cooking results, always choose pans, which
correctly fit to the diameter of the burner used (see
figs). Choose thick, flat bottom pots.
We recommend the flame is lowered as soon as the
liquid starts boiling.
For a correct ignition always keep the burner ring and
the spark plugs clean.
Good use
