INTENDED FOR THE INSTALLER
INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER
USING THE BURNERS
The symbols silk-screen printed on the side of the
knob indicate the correspondence between the
knob and the burner.
Automatic start-up with valves
Turn the corresponding knob anticlockwise up
to the maximum position (large flame, fig.1) and
press the knob.
Once the burner has been started up, keep the
knob pressed for about 6 seconds.
Using the burners
In order to obtain the maximum yield without waste
of gas, it is important that the diameter of the pot is
suitable for the burner potential (see the following
table), so as to avoid that the flame goes out of the
pot bottom (fig.2).
Use the maximum capacity to quickly make the
liquids reach the boiling temperature, and the
reduced capacity to heat food or maintain boiling.
All of the operating positions must be chosen
between the maximum and the minimum ones,
never between the minimum position and the
closing point.
The gas supply can be interrupted by turning the
knob clockwise up to the closing position.
If there is no power supply, it is possible to light the
burners with matches, setting the knob to the start-
up point (large flame).
BURNERS Power W Ø of pots
Semi-rapid 1650 16 - 18 cm
Wok 4000 24 - 26 cm
Notice
When the equ- ipment is not working, always check
that the knobs are in the closing position (see
fig.1).
With the models with the safety valve, if the flame-
should blow out accidentally, the safety valve will
automatically stop the gas supply, after a few
seconds. To restore operation, set the knob to the
lighting point (large flame, fig.1).
While cooking with fat or oil, pay the utmost-
attention as these substances can catch fire when
overheated.
Do not use sprays near the appliance in operation.-
Do not place unstable or deformed pots on the-
burner, so as to prevent them from overturning or
overflowing.
Make sure that pot handles are placed properly.-
When the burner is started up, check that the-
flame is regular and, before taking pots away,
always lower the flame or put it out.
