Igniting the burners
The hob is fitted with flame failure de-
vices on each burner. Flame failure de-
vices operate by shutting o the supply
of gas to the burner in the event that
the flame is extinguished accidentally.
To ignite the burners, follow these
instructions:
1. Lightly press the control knob down and turn the knob anti-
clockwise to the maximum position. Firmly press and hold down
the control knob to begin the ignition process (a clicking sound
will be heard). Hold down the control knob for a few seconds
(sometimes up to 10) after ignition to allow the safety device to
detect that the burner is lit.
2.Once the burner is lit, adjust the burner power to the required
position.
Please note:
• The ignition device should not be operated for more than 15
seconds.
• If a burner does not ignite, or turns o accidentally, turn the
control knob to the ‘o’ position, and wait for one minute before
attempting to reignite the burner.
• If the burner does not ignite, repeat the ignition process with the
burner at the minimum position.
• Switch all controls o after you have finished cooking.

Ecient use of your hob
The hob is equipped with burners of dierent sizes, designed to
accommodate most shapes and sizes of pan. For best results,
only use pans with flat bottoms and choose an appropriate burner
depending on the size of the pan. The most ecient use of the hob is
shown below, where the pan and burner are correctly chosen.
Ensure that the pans do not overlap the
edge of the pan stand, or cover the
control panel.
The table below shows the sizes of pan that should be used with each
burner:
