Ignition using the gas safety
feature
. Press and hold the control knob for a few seconds
after the flame appears in order to trigger the safety
system.
. If there is a power failure, the burner can be lit by
holding a match near the burner and pushing down the
relevant control knob at the same time.
. Regularly clean the burners: this is vital to their proper
operation and to ensure a stable and regular flame.
. Check that the spark plugs are clean. Thoroughly dry
the burners and burner covers before replacing them.
. Finish cleaning by wiping the glass worktop using a
piece of absorbent paper to remove any traces of
humidity.
General maintenance
Use of cookware
. Always use stable, heat resistant cookware with a flat
base.
Tips . Once water starts to boil, reduce the burner’s heat to
prevent overflowing.
. Cover your saucepans with lids to save energy.
