Miele KM 342 - Operating Your Gas Cooktop; Fast-Ignition System Operation; Standard Burner Operation

Fast-Ignition-System
The gas cooktops are equipped with a
Fast-Ignition-System which
incorporates the following features:
–
The control knob can be released
once it is turned to the largest flame
symbol.
–
If the flame goes out during use,
e.g. from a draft, the burner will auto
-
matically reignite.
If reignition is unsuccessful, the gas
supply will automatically be cut (see
"Safety feature").
As a result of the
Fast-Ignition-System, the ignitor
stays activated for a few seconds,
even when the flame is already lit.
– To prevent a gas leak, the
Fast-Ignition-System will click until
the safety thermostat is activated.
Turning on and off / Regulating
The control knob is used to light the
burner and to regulate the strength of
the flame.
