Thermo-electric flame monitoring

For your safety, the stove is equipped with an thermo-

If the burner mistakenly goes out while in operation, turn
the control knob to the 0 position and wait at least
1 minute before re-igniting the burner.

Turning off

Turn the control knob clockwise to position 0.
