FIRING OF BURNER (Manual Ignition)

If your hob does not have a built-in lighter or during a blackout, place a naked flame over the burner and push the switch to bring it to the desired position with a counter-clockwise movement. Gas adjustment should be between maximum and minimum levels, not between maximum and off positions. To close the burner, turn the switch clockwise until it reaches the “off” position.

MODELS EQUIPPED WITH LIGHTER SWITCH (Automatic ignition)

To burn one of the burners, press the switch down and bring the switch to the maximum position. When it burns, the flame is adjusted to the desired intensity with the switch.

For the hob to operate properly, the grills and burner components should be properly positioned. Make sure that the flame of your burner is blue and works quietly. If the burner flame is yellow or noisy, ensure that all burners fit properly. If the flame color does not change to blue, apply to the authorized service.

To operate the burners, turn the control switch left-wise until reaching the maximum level. When you press the control switch, all burning igniters will have flame. Release the switch a few seconds after the burner ignites, and bring the control switch to the desired flame position between the maximum and minimum levels.

If the flame goes out when you release the switch, you should repeat the above process. But this time, press the switch and hold it for about 10 seconds.

WARNING: Do not use the burning system for more than 15 seconds. If the burner does not ignite within this time or if the flame is cut for any reason, repeat the burning process after waiting for 1 minute.

To close the burners, turn the control switch right-wise to close the hob.

All burners on your hob are equipped with a Flame Failure Device system to protect against flame extinguishing risks (e.g., water flow, wind). When the flame goes out while the burner switch is open, this system will prevent the cutting of the gas supplied to the burner. If the burning of the burner is cut due to safety, repeat the burning operation by switching the burner switch to the off position.

Warnings

Before use, the electrical plate should be elevated to the maximum level and rested for 5 minutes without any container on it. It is normal if any smell or smoke rises from the plate; such effects will disappear after normal use.
