4. Part : USE OF YOUR HOB
Control of the hob burners
The knob has 3 positions: Off (0), max (big flame symbol) and min (small
flame symbol). After you ignite the burner in max. position; you can adjust the
flame length between max. and min. positions. Do not operate the burners
when the knob position is between max. and off positions.
After the ignition, check the flames visually. If you see yellow tip, lifted or
unstable flames; turn the gas flow off, and check the assembly of burner caps
and crowns. Also, make sure that no liquid has flown into the burner cups. If
the burner flames go out accidentally, turn the burners off, ventilate the kitchen
with fresh air, and do not attempt re-ignition for 90 sec.
When turning the hob off, turn the knob in the clockwise direction so that the
knob shows "0" position.
Your hob has burners of different diameters. The most economic way of using
gas is too choose the correct size gas burners for your cooking pan size and to
bring the flame to minimum position once the boiling point is reached. It is
recommended to always cover your cooking pan.
In order to obtain maximum performance from the main burners, use pots with
the following flat bottom diameters. Using smaller pots than the minimum
dimensions stated below will cause energy loss.
Rapid Burner: 22-26cm
Medium Burner: 14-22cm
Auxiliary Burner: 12-18cm
Make sure that the tips of the flames do not spread out of the outer
circumference of the pan, as this may also harm the plastic accessories around
the pan (handles etc.) .

When the burners are not in use for prolonged periods, always turn the main
gas control valve off.
