Operation
Before using the appliance re-
move all packaging, including
the advertising labels and any
protective film.
Hob burner control knobs
The symbols on the knobs mean:
z= no gas supply
= maximum gas supply
= minimum gas supply
Foreasierlighting, proceed before
putting a pan on the pan support.
Lighting the burners
Push the relevant knob down and
turn it anti-clockwise until it reaches
the "maximum" position.
Then, check the flame is regular
and adjust it as required.
If you cannot light the flame even
after several attempts, check the "cap"
and “crown” (see figure 1 - lett. AA
AA
A, BB
BB
B)
are in the correct position.
When switching on the mains, after
installation or a power cut, it is qui-
te normal for the spark generator to
be activated automatically.
In the absence of electricity, igni-
tion can occur without the
electrical device; in this case
approach the burner with a
flame, push the relevant knob
down and turn it anti-clockwise
until it reaches the "maximum"
position.
Do not keep the control knob
pressed for more than 15 se-
conds.

If the burner does not light
even after 15 seconds, release
the control knob, turn it the
"off" position and wait for at
least one minute before trying
to light the burner again.
To switch off burners
To put the flame out, turn the knob to

Using the hob
Practical hints
For the correct use of the
burners
To ensure maximum burner
efficiency, you should only use pots and
pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of
the burner used.
Rapid Burner diameter 18-26 cm
Semi-rapid Burner diameter 12-22 cm
Auxiliary Burner diameter 8-16 cm
• For easier lighting, proceed before
putting a pan on the pan support.
• Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.
•Take care when frying food in hot
oil or fat, as the overheated
splashes could easily ignite.
• If you use a saucepan which is smaller
than the recommended size, the flame
will spread beyond the bottom of the
vessel, causing the handle to overheat.
• Prolonged cooking with
potstones, earthenware pans or
cast-iron plates is inadvisable.
Also, do not use aluminium foil to
protect the top during use.
•Make sure pots do not protrude over
the edges of the cooktop and that they
are centrally positioned on the rings in
order to obtain lower gas
consumption.
• Do not place unstable or deformed
pots on the rings: they could tip over or
spill their contents, causing accidents.
• Pots must not enter the control zone.
• If the control knobs become difficult to
turn, please contact your local Service
Force Centre.
• As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn
down the flame so that it will barely
keep the liquid simmering.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Disconnect the appliance from
the electrical supply, before
carrying out any cleaning or
manteinance work.
The hob is best cleaned whilst
it is still warm, as spillage can
be removed more easily than if
it is left to cool.
This appliance cannot be
cleaned with steam or with a
steam cleaning machine.
The burners
zThe burner caps and crowns can be
removed for cleaning.
zWash the burners taps and crowns
using hot soapy water, and remove
marks with a mild paste cleaner. A
well moistened soap impregnated
steel wool pad can be used with
caution, if the marks are particularly
difficult to remove.
zAfter cleaning, be sure to wipe dry
with a soft cloth.
zFrequently wash the "caps" and the
"crowns" with hot soapy water,
carefully taking away any built-up of
food.
The Hob Top
zRegularly wipe over the hob top
using a soft cloth well wrung out in
warm water to which a little wasing
up liquid has been added. Avoid the
use of the following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for
non-stick saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.

10
Periodic Maintenance
Periodically ask your local Service Centre
to check the conditions of the gas supply
pipe and the pressure adjuster, if fitted.
zShould the hob top become heavily
soiled, the following products are
recommended:
- For stainless steel hobs use a
proprietary stainless steel cleaner.
- For other hobs use Hob Brite or Bar
Keepers Friend.
zDo not leave acid or alkaline
substances (e.g. vinegar, salt,
lemon juice, etc.) on the cooktop.
The Ignition electrode
The electric ignition is obtained
through a ceramic electrode with a
metal electrode. Keep these
components very clean, to avoid difficult
lighting, and check that the burner
crown holes are not obstructed.
