PRATICAL ADVICE FOR USING THE BURNERS

This hob has burners of different diameters. For better burner 

performance, please stick to the following rules:

Use pots and pans with bottoms the same width as that of the 

 -

burners or slightly larger (see table on the right).

Only use flat-bottomed pots and pans.

 -

Use the correct amount of water for cooking foods and keep the 

 -

pot covered.

Make sure pots on the grates do not protrude beyond the edge of 

 -

the hob.

In the case of pans with convex bottoms (WOK), use the support grille 

 -

provided, which should be positioned only on the 4 ring burner.

IMPORTANT: improper use of the grids can result in damage to the hob: 

do not position the grids upside down or slide them across the hob.

Do not use:

Cast iron griddles, ollar stones, terracotta pots and pans.

 -

Heat diffusers such as metal mesh, or any other types.

 -

Two burners simultaneously for one receptacle (e.g. fish kettle).

HOW TO USE THE HOB

 WARNING

Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of the pan.

IMPORTANT: WHEN THE HOB IS IN USE, THE ENTIRE HOB AREA MAY BECOME HOT.

To ignite one of the burners, turn the relative knob anti-clockwise to the maximum flame setting.

• 

Press the knob against the control panel to ignite the burner.

• 

After the burner has ignited, keep the knob pressed for about 5-10 seconds to allow proper device operation.

• 

This burner safety device shuts off the gas supply to the burner if the flame goes out accidentally (because 

of sudden draught, an interruption in the gas delivery, boiling over of liquids, etc.).

The knob must not be pressed for more than 15 sec. If, after that time has elapsed, the burner does not remain 

• 

lit, wait at least one minute before trying to light it again.

NOTE: 

should particular local conditions of the delivered gas make the ignition of burner difficult, it is 

advisable to repeat the operation with the knob turned to small flame setting.

The burner might go out when the knob is released.

 This means that the safety device has not warmed up 

enough. In this case, repeat the operations described above.

DIMENSIONS AND DISTANCES TO BE MANTAINED (mm)

NOTE: in case of installation of a hood above the cooktop, please 

refer to the hood instructions for the correct distance.
