For easier lighting, proceed
before putting a pan on the pan
support.
To light a burner:
)
z
push in the relevant control and turn
it to maximum position.
z
Upon ignition, keep the knob pushed
down about 5 seconds. This will
allow the "thermocouple" (Fig. 1 -
letter D) to be heated and the safety
device to be switched off, otherwise
the gas supply would be interrupted.
z
z
Then adjust the flame as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the
control knob to zero, and try again.
If the burner accidentally goes out,
turn the control knob to the “off”
position and wait for at least 1
minute before trying to light the
burner again.
Ultra-rapid Burner
(Triple Crown)
Do not keep the control knob
pressed for more than
A
15
seconds. If the burner does not
light even after 15 seconds,
release the control knob, turn
it to the "off" position and wait
for at least 1 minute before
trying to light the burner again.

If you use a saucepan which is
smaller than the recommended
size, the flame will spread
beyond the bottom of the vessel,
causing the handle to overheat.
Fig. 1
A - Burner cap
B - Burner crown
C - Ignition electrode
D -Thermocouple
Take care when frying food in
hot oil or fat, as the overheated
splashes could easily ignite.
18
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn
down the flame so that it will barely
keep the liquid simmering.
If the control knobs become difficult
to turn, please contact your local
Service Force Centre.
When switching on the mains, after
installation or a power cut, it is quite
normal for the spark generator to be
activated automatically.
In the absence of electricity, ignition
can occur without the electrical device;
in this case, approach the burner with
a flame, push the relevant knob down
and turn it anti-clockwise until it
reaches the “maximum” position.
Using the hob correctly
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, it is
stronglyrecommendedthatyouuseonlypots
and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of
the burner used, so that flame will not spread
beyond the bottom of the vessel (see the
table).

Make sure pots do not protrude over
the edges of the cooktop and that they
are centrally positioned on the rings
in order to obtain lower gas
consumption.
Do not place unstable or deformed
pots on the rings: they could tip over
or spill their contents, causing
accidents.
Pots must not enter the control
zone.
19
Cleaning the hob
Before any maintenance or
cleaning can be carried out, you
must DISCONNECT the hob
from the electricity supply.
The hob is best cleaned whilst
it is still warm, as spillage can
be removed more easily than if
it is left to cool.
This
appliance
cannot
be
cleaned with steam or with a
steam cleaning machine.
The Hob Top
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft
cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a
little wasing up liquid has been added.
Avoid the use of the following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick
saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, the
following products are recommended:
-Forstainlesssteelhobsuseaproprietarystainless
steel cleaner.
- For other hobs use Hob Brite or Bar Keepers
Friend.
Do not leave acid or alkaline
substances (e.g. vinegar, salt,
lemon juice, etc.) on the
cooktop.
Pan Supports
The pan supports are not
dishwasher proof; they must be
washed by hand. Take care when
drying them as the enamelling process
20
occasionally leaves rough edges. If
necessary, remove stubborn stains
using a paste cleaner.
After cleaning, make sure that the pan
supports are correctly positioned.
YES
NO
To make burners work properly, ensure that
pan supports are placed in a way that the arms
are centred upon the burner as shown in the
picture.
Pay attention when replacing the
pan supports in order to avoid
damaging the hob top.
Cast iron pan supports: take care when
removing them. They are heavy and could
damage the hob or your kitchen furniture if
you let them fall.
The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed
for cleaning.
Wash the burners caps and crowns using hot
soapy water, and remove marks with a mild
paste cleaner. A well moistened soap
impregnated steel wool pad can be used with
caution, if the marks are particularly difficult
to remove.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft
cloth.
The Ignition electrode
The electric ignition is obtained through a
ceramic electrode which contains a metal
electrode (Fig. 1 - C). Keep these
components very clean, to avoid difficult
lighting, and check that the burner crown
holes (Fig. 1 - B) are not obstructed.
21
