LIGHTING THE BURNERS
To ignite the burner:
1) Lightly press and turn the knob anti-
clockwise and position the knob sym-
bol to the indicator printed on
the control panel (fig. 3.2).
2) Press the knob to operate the electric
ignition; or, in the case of a mains fail-
ure light the burner with a match or
lighted taper.
3) Adjust the burner according to the
setting required.
GAS BURNERS
Each burner is controlled by a gas tap
assuring the opening and the closing of
the gas supply.
Make the symbols printed on the knob
match the indicator on the control panel
to obtain:
– symbol ●:off
– symbol :
full on (nominal rate)
– symbol : reduced rate
To reduce the gas flow to minimum,
rotate the knob further anti-clockwise to
point the small flame symbol.
The maximum aperture position permits
rapid boiling of liquids, whereas the
minimum aperture position allows slow-
er warming of food or maintaining boil-
ing conditions of liquids (simmering).
Other intermediate operating adjust-
ments can be achieved by positioning
the lever between the maximum and
minimum aperture positions, and never
between the maximum aperture and off
positions.
ATTENTION: the cooking hob becomes
very hot during operation.
Keep children away.

CHOICE OF THE BURNER
On the control panel, near every knob,
there is a diagram that indicates which
burner is controlled by that knob.
The suitable burner must be chosen
according to the diameter and the
capacity used.
As an indication, the burners and the
pots must be used in the following way:
It is important that the diameter of the
pot be suitable to the potentiality of the
burner so as not to compromise the
high output of the burners and therefore
energy waste.
A small pot on a large burner does not
give you a boiling point in a shorter
amount of time since the capacity of
heat absorption of a liquid mass
depends on the volume and the surface
of the pot.

part of the oven (wattage: 2,20 kW).
OVEN BURNER
I t carries out normal “oven cooking”.
The gas flow to the burner is regulated by
a thermostat which allow to maintain the
oven temperature constant.
The control of the temperature is assured
by a thermostatic probe positioned inside
the oven.
The probe must be always kept in its
housing, in a clean condition, as an incor-
rect position or encrustment may cause an
alteration in the control of the temperature.
Moreover, the thermostat is fitted with a
safety valve which automatically shuts off
the gas supply when the flame goes out.
