near the burner and, at the same time, press down
and turn the corresponding knob anti-clockwise until
it reaches the maximum setting.
For models fitted with a safety device, the knob

The "independent double flame" burner: The "independent double flame" burner: The "independent double flame" burner:
This gas burner consists of two concentric flame
rings which can be used together or independently
of each other. Using both simultaneously at
maximum power makes it possible to reach a higher
overall power level, thus reducing cooking time with
respect to the time required by traditional burners.
The double flame ring also distributes heat more
evenly across the base of the pan, especially when
both burners are set to the minimum power level.
To ensure that the double-flame burner is used to its
full potential, never set the inside ring to minimum
and the outside ring to maximum at the same time.
Cookware of all sizes may be used; when cooking
with small recipients use only the inner burner. Each
individual ring with an "independent double flame
burner" has its own control knob:

Practical advice on using the burners

To ensure the burners operate efficiently:
• Use cookware which is suited to each burner (see
table) in order to prevent the flames from
extending beyond the base of the pans.
• Always use cookware with a flat base and a cover.
• When the contents of the pan reach boiling point,
turn the knob to the minimum setting.
