Manual Ignition of the Gas Burners
If your cooker is not fitted with electrical ignition or in case there is a failure in the grid, follow
the procedures listed below:
For cooktop burners: To turn one of the burners, press and turn the valve lever concerned
counterclockwise until maximum position and immediately ignite a match or gas lighter near
the crown burner holes. Move the ignition source away as soon as you see a stable flame.
For cooktop burners with thermocouple: Cooktops fitted with safety thermocouple provide
security when the flame goes out accidentally. For this reason, during the manual ignition, press
and hold the valve lever until you see stable flames. If the flames remain unstable after releasing
the button, repeat the procedure. If the flame goes out, the thermocouple system will close off
the said gas valve towards the burner and will prevent any accumulation of unburned gas. You
must wait at least 90 seconds before re-igniting a gas burner after an automatic cut.
For the oven burner (fitted with thermocouple): All oven burners are fitted with safety
thermocouple and provide security when the flame goes out accidentally. To ignite the oven
burner, press and turn the oven valve lever counterclockwise until it reaches maximum position.
While pressing the lever, immediately ignite a match or gas lighter near the ignition hole located
on the left front of the burner. Once the burner is lit with a steady flame, withdraw the ignition
source at once and hold pressed for about 3 seconds. If the flames remain cut out after
releasing the knob, repeat the procedure. If the flame goes out, the thermocouple system will
shut off the gas inlet of the oven valve towards the burner and will prevent any accumulation of
unburned gas. If the oven burner does not ignite after you keep the burner knob pressed for at
least 30 seconds, open the oven door and do not attempt re-ignition until at least 90 seconds.
When oven flames go out accidentally, repeat the same procedure.
