Ignition of hob burners
To ignite a burner, before positioning the saucepan,
proceed as follows:
1. push the corresponding knob in completely
and turn in an anticlockwise direction to the
maximum position;
2. upon ignition regulate the flame as required.
In models provided with a safety device
("thermocouple", fig. 1 - D), the control knob must be
pressed in for approximately 5 seconds until the
safety valve automatically keeps the flame lit.
If after a few attempts the burner does not ignite, check
that the burner cap and crown (fig.1-A,B) are correctly
positioned.
To interrupt the supply of gas, turn the knob in a
clockwise direction to the position "l".
During cooking, when using fats or oils, take
particular care as they can, when over-
heated, self-ignite.
When using the triple-crown burner, place
the special grid on the pan support (fig.2-A).
When using the auxiliary burner (with pans
having a diameter equal or higher than
50mm), place the special grid on the pan
support, as shown in fig.2-B.
Triple-crown burner
In models provided with triple-crown burner, always
ignite the burner before putting the pans on.
If after a few attempts the burner does not ignite, check
that the burner cap and crown are correctly positioned.
Control knob for the hotplates
The hotplates control knob (EK 6735 - 9735) can be
adjusted on four different positions, according to your
cooking needs, from maximun heat (position 4) to
minimum heat (position 1), as shown in Fig.3.
