Start-up and use
! The position of the corresponding gas burner or electric
hotplate* is shown on every knob.
Gas cooker hobs are equipped with discrete power
adjustment that allows for accurately adjusting the flame to 5
different power levels. Thanks to this system, gas hobs are
also capable of guaranteeing the same cooking results for
each recipe, as the optimal power level for the desired type
of cooking can be identified in an easier, more accurate way.
Gas burners
Each burner can be adjusted to one of the following settings
using the corresponding control knob:
● Off
Maximum
Minimum
To light one of the burners, hold a lit match or lighter near
the burner and, at the same time, press down and turn the
corresponding knob anti-clockwise to the maximum setting.
Since the burner is fitted with a safety device, the knob
should be pressed for approximately 2-3 seconds to allow
the automatic device keeping the flame alight to heat up.
When using models with an ignition button, light the desired
burner pressing down the corresponding knob as far as possible
and turning it anticlockwise towards the maximum setting.
! If a flame is accidentally extinguished, turn off the control
knob and wait for at least 1 minute before trying to relight it.
To switch off the burner, turn the knob in a clockwise
direction until it stops (when reaches the "●" position).
The "separate double flame" burner*
This burner consists of two concentric burners which can
operate either together or separately.
Use of the double flame on the maximum setting gives a
very high power which reduces cooking times with respect
to conventional burners.
Moreover the double flame crown provides a more uniform
distribution of heat on the bottom of the pan, when using
both burners on minimum.

To ensure that the double-flame burner is used to its
full potential, never set the inside ring to minimum and
the outside ring to maximum at the same time.
Pots and pans of all sizes can be used. In the case of the smaller
pots and pans we recommend the use of only the internal burner.
There is a separate control knob for each of the "separate
double flame" burners.
