REGULATING THE MINIMUM OUTPUT OF THE HOB BURNERS
Normal/valve taps:
Ignite the burners and turn the knob to the maximum position. Remove the knob and insert a
small flat-head screwdriver into the rod or through the holes on the side of the control panel, in
accordance with the type (fig. 8 A/B). Loosen the by-pass screw by two turns in an anti-clockwise
direction and rotate the rod to the minimum position. Adjust the previously loosened screws until
the flame is lowered but stable, even when rapid changes are made from the maximum to the
minimum position with the burner cold. If safety taps are fitted, let the burner run on minimum for
a few minutes to ensure that the device does not cut in. If it does, increase the minimum.
N.B. For liquid gas settings, the burner minimum must be set by fully tightening the tap
by-passes.

WARNINGS:
-
If the burner flames accidentally go out, turn off the KNOB and wait for at least one minute
before igniting.
-
Using a gas cooker produces heat and humidity in the room where it is installed. Ensure the
room is well ventilated by keeping all the natural air vents open or by installing an extraction
hood with flue pipe.
-
Intensive or extensive use of the cooker may require supplementary ventilation e.g. opening
a window, or more efficient ventilation e.g. increasing the capacity of the mechanic
ventilation, if installed.
N.B. When the burners are alight, there must not be any draughts inside the room in
that they may affect the flame or even blow it out.
