GETTING STARTED AND OPERATION
The position of the corresponding gas burner is indicated on each control knob.
Gas burners
The burners are different in size and power. Choose the most appropriate one for the
diameter of the cookware being used.
The burner can be regulated with the corresponding control knob by using one of the
following settings:
OFF
High
Low
On those models fitted with a safety device
The knob must be pressed for about 6 seconds until the flame is lighted and warmed up.
On those models fitted with an igniter
The electric ignition button, identified by the symbol, must be pressed first, then the
corresponding knob is pushed and turned in the counter-clockwise direction to the
"High" setting.
To light a burner: Simply press the corresponding knob and turn it in the counter-
clockwise direction to the High setting, keep press until the burner is lighted.
CAUTION
Fire and explosion hazard! If the flame goes out accidentally, turn off
the gas with the control knob and try to light it again at least 1 minute
later.
To turn off a burner: Turn the knob in the clockwise direction until it is stopped (it should

Practical Advice
For best performance, follow these general guidelines:
• Use the appropriate cookware for each burner (see table) in order to prevent the
flame to reach the side of the pot or pan;
• Always use cookware with a flat bottom and keep the lid on;
• When the contents come to a boil, turn the knob to "Low".
