BUILT-IN GAS HOB  
-
-
The use of a gas appliance produces heat and humidity in the room. Make sure the room is well-ventilated, or install an  
extractor hood with exhaust duct.  
In case of prolonged use, additional ventilation may be necessary (by opening a window or increasing the hood  
extraction speed).  
After use, make sure the knobs are in off position and close the main gas supply cock or the gas cylinder valve.  
Overheated oils and fats catch fire easily. Always remain vigilant when cooking foods rich in fat, oil or alcohol (e.g. rum,  
cognac, wine).

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.).  
4 burners  
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.  
WOK ADAPTER  
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.
