GAS BURNERS
Gas flow to the burners is adjusted by
turning the knobs illustrated in fig. 2.1
which control the safety valves.
Turning the knob so that the indicator
line points to the symbols printed on the
panel achieves the following functions:
– full circle
= closed valve
– symbol = maximum
aperture or flow
– symbol = minimum
aperture or flow

To light one of the gas burners, hold
a flame (e.g. a match) close to the top
part of the burner, push in and turn
the relative knob in an anti-clockwise
direction, pointing the knob indicator
towards the large flame symbol (i.e.
max. gas flow).
To reduce the gas flow to minimum,
rotate the knob further anti-clockwise
to point the indicator towards the
small flame symbol.
The maximum aperture position
permits rapid boiling of liquids,
whereas the minimum aperture
position allows slower warming of
food or maintaining boiling conditions
of liquids.
Other intermediate operating
adjustments can be achieved by
positioning the indicator between the
maximum and minimum aperture
positions, and never between the
maximum aperture and closed
positions.
