Using the burners

To turn on one of the burners:

  1. Turn the corresponding control knob anticlockwise until the indicator coincides with the maximum flame symbol .
  2. Press the control knob to ignite the burner.
  3. Once the burner has lit, keep the control knob pressed for about 5 seconds to allow the safety thermocouple fitted to each burner to engage. The thermocouple will switch off the gas supply to the burner should the flame be accidentally lost (A gust of air, momentary interruption of gas supply or liquid spillage etc.).

To turn on the professional burner:

  1. To simultaneously turn on both rings, turn the knob anticlockwise to position it on the symbol showing maximum flame for outer and inner ring and push down the knob to ignite the burner.
  2. To keep only the inner ring ignited push down the knob and turn it anticlockwise to position showing maximum flame for inner ring and turned off for outer.

If the burner does not ignite within about 15 seconds, switch off the burner, check the fitting of the burner cap and plate for correct fitting. Wait at least 1 minute before trying again.
If the burner goes out when the control knob is released, the thermocouple did not engage. Wait at least 1 minute before repeating steps 1 to 3.

Practical advice on using the hob

Read the instructions to get the best out of your hob.

  • Use pans with a similar diameter to the burner (see the table on this page)
  • Use flat bottomed pans except with the wok support.
  • Do not use excessive water when cooking foods and use the lid.
  • Ensure that pans are fully supported by the pan supports and do not protrude over the edges

You should never use:

  • Cast iron pots and pans, steatite stone grills or terracotta dishes on the hob as this may damage the pan supports.
  • Convectors such as metal netting, or others.
  • The use of two burners simultaneously with just one container such as a fish kettle.

Important: 

Do not rest or drag the pan supports upside down on the hob as this could scratch it.
Failure to comply with these recommendations could lead to the glass ceramic hob being damaged, or broken and the safety of your appliance being compromised.

Burner Ø Pans
wok from 24 to 26 cm
rapid from 24 to 26 cm
semi-rapid from 16 to 22 cm
auxiliary from 8 to 14 cm

Positioning the pan supports and wok support (also as spacer)

To position the pan supports firstly align with burners and then fit into the final position paying attention to do not scratch metal top with the support. For a better alignment, position one grid aligned to another.

This hob has burners of different diameters. For better burner performance, please refer to the practical advice described above. In the case of pans with convex bottoms (WOK), use the support grille provided, which should be positioned only on the wok burner, following the shown orientation (longer fingers upside).

If the use on wok burner of pots with a diameter bigger than 26cm is necessary, use supplied wok adapter in the reversed orientation as shown in the left picture (longer fingers bottom side). Failure to do so could result in damages of the metal surface of the hob.
