Making settings on the hob
Your hob is equipped with four gas burners. The following
information explains how to light the gas burners and set the
size of flame.
Igniting the gas burners
Always position the burner cap exactly over the burner cup.
Openings on the burner cup are always unobstructed. All parts
must be dry.
1. Open the top cover. The top cover must remain open for as
long as the oven is in operation.
2. Turn the switch for the desired burner anticlockwise to the
large flame symbol
—.
3. Press and hold the burner knob and press the ignition button
at the same time. The gas burner ignites.
4. Press and hold the burner knob for approximately 1-3
seconds. The safety pilot is activated. If the gas flame goes
out, the gas supply is automatically interrupted by the safety
pilot.
5. Set the desired flame size. Between setting
û Off and setting
—, the flame is not stable. Therefore, always choose a setting
between
— large and ˜ small flame.
6. If the flame goes out again, repeat the process from step 2.
7. To end the cooking process: Turn the burner knob û
clockwise to the Off position.
The ignition device should not be actuated for more than 15
seconds. If the burner does not light within 15 seconds, wait for
at least one minute. Then repeat the ignition process.
The gas burner does not ignite
If there is a power cut or if the ignition plugs are damp, you can
light the gas burners with a gas lighter or a match.
Table - Cooking
Select the right saucepan size for each burner. The diameter of
the pot or pan base should be the same as that of the burner.
Cooking times depend on the type, weight and quality of the
food. Deviations are therefore possible. You yourself can best
judge the optimal cooking time.
Minerals and vitamins are very quickly destroyed during
cooking. Therefore, only use a little water. This will help you
retain vitamins and minerals. Select short cooking times so that
the vegetables remain firm and full of nutrients.
