Instructions for the user 6. Use of the hob 6.1 Lighting of the hob burners Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame caps are in the correct position and that their burner caps are in place, making sure that the holes A in the flame caps correspond to the spark plugs and thermocouples. The optional grid B is for use with “woks” (Chinese pans). To prevent deterioration of the hob we have equipped the cooker with a raised pan stand C to be placed underneath pans more than 26 cm in diameter.
6.2 Practical advice for using the hob burners For better use of the burners and lower gas consumption, use covered vessel that are proportional in size to the burner to prevent the flame from heating the sides (see paragraph “6.3 Diameter of the vessels to be used on each burner”). When water reaches the boiling point, lower the flame so that it doesn’t overflow. To avoid burns or damage to the hob, all vessels or griddle plates must be placed within the perimeter of the hob.
Instructions for the user 7. Use of the oven 7.1 Warnings and general advice Using the oven and the grill for the first time, heat them to the maximum temperature for as long as it takes to burn off any production oil residues which could give a nasty flavour to the food.
