3 Use of the hob burners
Gas burners
Gas flow to the burners is adjusted
by turning the knobs (illustrated in
fig. 3.1) which control the safety
valves. Make the symbol of the knob
match with the indicator on the
control panel to obtain:
1. symbol
closed valve
maximum
2. symbol
aperture or flow
minimum aperture
3. symbol
or flow
√
The maximum aperture position
permits rapid boiling of liquids,
whereas the minimum aperture
position allows slower warming
of food or maintaining boiling
conditions of liquids.
√
To reduce the gas flow to
minimum rotate the knob further anti-clockwise to point the indicator
towards the small flame symbol.
√
Other intermediate operating adjustments can be achieved by
positioning the indicator between the maximum and minimum aperture
positions, and never between the maximum aperture and closed
positions.
N.B.
When the cooker is not
being used, set the gas knobs to
their closed positions.
Caution!
Do not cover the hob with
aluminium foils.
Caution!
The cooking hob becomes
very hot during operation. Keep
children well out of reach.
