How To Use the Hob Burners
Hob burners
Each hob burner is controlled by a
separate gas tap operated by a control
knob (fig. 4.3) which has 3 positions
marked on the knob, these are:
– Symbol ●: tap closed (burner off)
– Symbol : High (maximum)
– Symbol : Low (minimum)
Push in and turn the knob anti-clockwise
to the selected position.
Low High
Lighting of the hob burners
To ignite the burner, the following instructions are to be pursued:
1) Lightly press and turn the knob anti-clockwise, and make the symbol printed on
the control panel to mach with the indicator on the knob (fig. 4.3).
2) Press the knob to operate the electric ignition; or, in case of power cut, approach a
flame to the burner.
3) Adjust the burner according to the power required.
To turn the burner off, fully rotate the knob clockwise to the off position: ●.
The maximum setting of the control tap is for boiling, the minimum setting is for slow
cooking and simmering.
All working positions must be chosen between the maximum and minimum setting, never
between the maximum setting and the “OFF” position.
Fig. 4.3
Electric ignition
The sparks generated by the electrodes close to the burners will ignite the chosen burn-
er. Whenever the lighting of the burners will result difficult due to peculiar conditions of
the gas features or supply, it is advised to repeat the ignition with the knob on “minimum”
position.

Correct use of triple-ring burner
The flat-bottomed pans are to be placed directly onto the pan-support.
When using a WOK you need to place the supplied stand in the burner to avoid any
faulty operation of the triple-ring burner.
Fig. 4.5 Fig. 4.6
WRONG CORRECT
Choice of burner
Fig. 4.4
The burner must be chosen according to the diameter of the pans and energy required.
Saucepans with handles which are excessively heavy, in relationship to the weight of
the pan, are safer as they are less likely to tip.
Pans which are positioned centrally on burners are more stable than those which are
offset.
It is far safer to position the pan handles in such a way that they cannot be accidentally
knocked.
When deep fat frying fill the pan only one third full of oil.
DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO NOT leave the pan unattended.
In the infortunate event of a fire, leave the pan where it is and turn off all controls.
Place a damp cloth or correct fitting lid over the pan to smother the flames.
DO NOT use water on the fire.
Leave the pan to cool for at least 30 minutes.
Burners Pan diameter
Auxiliary 12 ÷ 14 cm
Semi-rapid 16 ÷ 24 cm
Rapid 24 ÷ 26 cm
Triple-ring 26 ÷ 28 cm
do not use pans with concave or convex bases
