For each BURNER knob there is a complete ring
showing the strength of the flame for the relevant
burner.
To light one of the burners on the hob:
1. Bring a flame or gas lighter close to the burner.
2. Press the BURNER knob and turn it in an
anticlockwise direction so that it is pointing to the
maximum flame setting E.
3. Adjust the intensity of the flame to the desired
level by turning the BURNER knob in an
anticlockwise direction. This may be the minimum
setting C, the maximum setting E or any position in
between the two.
extinguished when the knob is released. If this
occurs, repeat the process, holding the knob down
for a longer period of time.
! If the flame is accidentally extinguished, switch off
the burner and wait for at least 1 minute before
attempting to relight it.
If the appliance is equipped with a flame failure
safety device*, press and hold the BURNER knob
for approximately 2-3 seconds to keep the flame
alight and to activate the device.
To switch the burner off, turn the knob until it
reaches the stop position •.
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.

Only available in certain models.

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:
the knob marked with the symbol
outer ring;
the knob marked with the symbol
inner ring.
To light the desired ring, press the corresponding
knob fully in and turn it in an anticlockwise direction
until it reaches the maximum power position E The
burner is equipped with an electronic lighting
system which is activated automatically when the
knob is pressed.
As the burner is fitted with a safety device, the
knob should be held down for approximately 2-3
seconds, until the automatic device keeping the
flame alight has heated up.
Each burner can be adjusted to one of the following
settings using the corresponding control knob:
• Off
• Maximum
• Minimum
To switch off the burner, turn the knob in a clockwise
direction until it stops (when it reaches the "•"
position).
Practical advice on using the burners
For the burners to work in the most efficient way
possible and to save on the amount of gas
consumed, it is recommended that only pans which
have a lid and a flat base are used. They should
also be suited to the size of the burner.
