Adjusting The Reduced Flame Position
The flame length in the minimum position is adjusted with a flat screw located
on the valve. For valves with FFD, the screw is located on the side of the valve
spindle. For valves without FFD, the screw is located inside the valve spindle.
For easier reduced flame adjustment, we advise to remove the control panel
(and microswitch, if present) during adjustment.The position the by pass screw
must be loosened in transformation from LPG to NG. In transformation from NG
to LPG, the same screw must be fastened. Make sure that the appliance is
unpluged from the electric current and the gas feed is open.
To determine the min. position, ignite the burners and leave them on in minimum
position. Remove the knobs because the screws are accesible only when the knobs
are removed. With the help of a small screwdriver fasten or loosen the by pass
screw around 90 degrees. When the flame has a length of at least 4mm, the gas is
well distributed. Make sure that the flame does not die out when passing from the
maximum position to the minimum position. Create an artificial wind with your
hand toward the flame to see if the flames are stable. For oven burner, operate the
oven burner at min. position for 5 minutes, then open and close the oven door for 2-
3 times to check the flame stability of the burner.
For some countries, the gas inlet type can be different for NG/LPG gases. In
such a case, remove the current connection components and nuts (if any) and
connect the new gas supply accordingly. In all conditions, all components used
in gas connections should be approved by local and/or international authorities.
In all gas connections, refer to the “ASSEMBLY OF GAS SUPPLY AND LEAKAGE
CHECK” clause explained before.

4. USE OF YOUR PRODUCT
4.1 Use of gas burners
•
Ignition of the burners
To determine which knob controls which burner, check the position symbol
above the knob.
Electrical Ignition
Ignition Through Hob Valve (micro switch): Press the valve of the
burner you want to operate and turn the valve in the counterclockwise
direction (clockwise for the grill burner) so that the knob is in max. position
while keeping the knob pressed. The spark plugs will generate sparks as long
as you keep the control knob pressed. The micro switch placed under the
knob will automatically create sparks through the spark plug of the burner.
Continue pressing the knob until you see a stable flame on the burner.
•
:
Manual Ignition of the Gas Burners
If your appliance is not equipped with any ignition aid or in case there is a
failure in the electric network, follow the procedures listed below
For Hob Burners: To ignite one of the burners, press and turn its knob
counter-clockwise so that the knob is in maximum position, then press the
ignition button immediately, because if you wait there will be a build up of gas
and this may cause the flame to spread. If the flame does not ignite continue to
press the ignition button until you see a stable flame on the burner.
For Oven Burner: To ignite the oven burner, press and turn the oven/grill control
knob counter-clockwise so that the knob is in maximum position, then press the
ignition button immediately, because if you wait there will be a build up of gas and
this may cause the flame to spread. If the flame does not ignite continue to press
the ignition button until you see a stable flame.
For Grill Burner: To ignite the grill burner, turn the oven/grill knob in the clockwise
position until the marker on the knob points at the grill sign . Then, keep the
knob pressed and press the ignition button immediately, because if you wait there
will be a build up of gas and this may cause the flame to spread. If the flame does
not ignite continue to press the ignition button until you see a stable flame.

Flame safety device:
.
Oven / Grill Burners
.
Hob Burners
Hobs equipped with flame failure device provide safety in case of accidentally
extinguished flame. If such a case occurs, the device will block the burners gas
channels and will avoid any accumulation of unburned gas. Wait 90 seconds
before re-igniting an extinguished gas burner
Regardless of the model of your appliance, all oven burners are equipped with a
gas safety device. For this reason, during ignition, keep the oven knob pressed
until you see stable flames. If the flames are cut out after you release the knob,
repeat the procedure again. If the oven burner does not ignite after you keep
the burner knob pressed for 30 seconds, open the oven door and do not
attempt re-ignition for at least 90 seconds. When oven flames go out
accidentally, repeat the same procedure

Controlof the hob burners
The knob has 3 positions: Off (0), maximum (big flame symbol) and minimum
(small flame symbol). After you ignite the burner in maximum position; you can
adjust the flame length between maximum and min. positions. Do not operate
the burners when the knob position is between maximum and off positions.
After the ignition, check the flames visually. If
you see yellow tip, lifted or unstable flames; turn
the gas flow off, and check the assembly of
burner caps and crowns (Figure 16). Also, make
sure that no liquid has flown into the burner
cups. If the burner flame goes out accidentally,
turn the burner off, ventilate the kitchen with
fresh air, and do not attempt re-ignition for 90
sec.
When turning the hob off, turn the knob in the
clockwise direction so that the knob shows "0"
position or the marker on the knob points
upwards.
Your hob has burners of different diameters. The most economic way of using
gas is to choose the correct size gas burners for your cooking pan size and to
bring the flame to minimum position once the boiling point is reached. It is
recommended to always cover your cooking pan.
In order to obtain maximum performance from the main burners, use pots with
the following flat bottom diameters. Using smaller pots than the minimum
dimensions stated below will cause energy loss.
Rapid Burner: 22-26cm
Semi-rapid Burner: 14-22cm
Auxiliary Burner: 12-18cm
