Operating the appliance

Important

Each time before switching on make

sure that the burner crown and

burner cover are lying straight on

the burner body.

If burner crown and burner cover

are lying crookedly, the gas flame

does not burn evenly and it can

cause damage to the burner cover.

The apertures for the gas flames on the burner crown must not be

blocked by foods that have boiled over or by cleaning products.

Switching the appliance on and off

1. Turn the ring switch to the left to

maximum power .

2. Press the ring switch in firmly, until

the gas has ignited. After a success-

ful ignition hold the ring switch de-

pressed for about 5 seconds. If the

flame should go out, repeat the ig-

nition process.

3. Set the desired power. The power

can be set progressively from maxi-

mum power to minimum power

4. To end the cooking process, turn

back to the Off position.

3 In the event of a power cut or also when the spark plug is wet (because

of food boiling over or cleaning) the rings can also be ignited using a

gas lighter or a match.

1 Warning!

Only take cookware from the ring when at minimum power or in the

Off Position •.
