HOB: GENERAL NOTES ON SAFETY
When a gas cooker is being used it produces
heat and humidity in the room where it is
installed. For this reason the room must
be well ventilated, keeping the natural
ventilation openings free and switching on
the mechanical aeration system (suction
hood or electric fan, see «VENTILATION and
LOCATION AND AERATION» paragraph)
If the cooker is used for a long time
additional aeration may be necessary, for
instance, opening a window, or a more
eective aeration by increasing the power
of the mechanical system if there is one.
LIGHTING THE BURNERS
N.B. Burners are equipped with safety
thermocouples and can only be ignited
with the knob at the «Full on» position
Once a burner has been lit, keep the knob
pressed for about 10 seconds.
Automatic electric ignition of burners
Push lightly the knob corresponding
to the burner you wish to use and turn
counterclockwise to the “Full on“ position, then
depress the control knob. Automatically the
ignition spark shoots. Matches can be used to
light the burners in a blackout.
Optimum use of the burners
To get the maximum yield with the minimum
consumption of gas it is handy to keep the
following points in mind:
• Once the burner has been lit, adjust the
ame according to your needs.
• Use an appropriately sized pan for each
burner (see the table below and g. 4).
• When the content of the pan start to boil, turn
the knob down to “Reduced rate position”
(small ame).
• Always put a lid on the pan.
