Your hob has burners of different diameters. The most economic way of using gas is to choose the
correct size gas burners for your cooking pan size and to bring the flame to minimum position once
the boiling point is reached. It is recommended to always cover your cooking pan.
In order to obtain maximum performance from the main burners, use pots with the following flat
bottom diameters. Using smaller pots than the minimum dimensions stated below will cause
energy loss.
Rapid / Wok Burner: 22-26cm
Semi-rapid Burner: 14-22cm
Auxiliary Burner: 12-18cm
MAX. position
After the ignition, check the flames visually. If you see yellow
tip, lifted or unstable flames; turn the gas flow off, and check
the assembly of burner caps and crowns (Figure 17). Also,
make sure that no liquid has flown into the burner cups. If
the burner flame goes out accidentally, turn the burner off,
ventilate the kitchen with fresh air, and do not attempt re-
ignition for 90 sec.
When turning the hob off, turn the knob in the clockwise
direction so that the knob shows "0" position or the marker
Figure 17
on the knob points upwards.
