To ignite one of the burners, turn the relative knob anti-clockwise to the maximum flame setting.
Press the knob against the control panel to ignite the burner.
After the burner has ignited, keep the knob pressed for about 5-10 seconds to allow proper device operation.
This burner safety device shuts off the gas supply to the burner if the flame goes out accidentally (because of sudden
draught, an interruption in the gas delivery, boiling over of liquids, etc.).
ELECTRIC SUPPLY: 230 V ~ 50 Hz
•
The knob must not be pressed for more than 15 sec. If, after that time has elapsed, the burner does not remain lit,
wait at least one minute before trying to light it again.
NOTE: should particular local conditions of the delivered gas make the ignition of burner difficult, it is advisable to repeat
the operation with the knob turned to small flame setting.
The burner might go out when the knob is released. This means that the safety device has not warmed up enough. In this
case, repeat the operations described above.
DIMENSIONS AND DISTANCES TO BE MANTAINED (mm)
NOTE: if the distance “A” between the wall cabinets is
between 600 mm and 730 mm, the height “B” must be a
minimum of 530 mm.
If the distance “A” between the wall cabinets is greater
than the width of the cooktop, the height “B” must be a
minimum of 400 mm.
In case of installation of a hood above the cooktop, please
refer to the hood instructions for the correct distance
