Manual Ignition of the Gas Burners
For cooktop burners with thermocouple: Cooktops fitted with safety thermocouple provide
security when the flame goes out accidentally. For this reason, during the manual ignition, press
and hold the control knob until you see stable flames. If the flames remain unstable after
releasing the control panel, repeat the procedure. If the flame goes out, the thermocouple system
will close off the said gas valve towards the burner and will prevent any accumulation of
unburned gas. You must wait at least 90 seconds before re-igniting a gas burner after an
automatic cut.
Explaining the thermocouple safety device: a thermal component detects the burner flame
and holds the gas open. In case of disappearance of the flame, the thermal component detects
heat loss and cuts the gas inlet off from the gas valve to avoid a dangerous accumulation of
unburnt gas.
