Warning – Risk of deflagration!

If the burner does not ignite after 15 seconds, switch off

the control knob and open the door or window in the

room. Wait at least 1 minute before igniting the burner

again.

Simmer setting

With the simmer setting, the burner switches the gas

flame on and off. This allows you to melt chocolate or

heat up delicate sauces, for example.

Turn the control knob to Â. It takes 10 - 50 seconds to

switch on or off.

Electronic flame monitoring and

automatic re-ignition

For your safety, the hob has an electronic flame

monitoring system. If the flame goes out while the hob is

in use (e.g. due to a draught), the appliance will

automatically re-ignite the burner.

If re-ignition is unsuccessful (e.g. because liquid or food

has boiled over and remains on the burner), the

appliance will switch off the gas supply.The illuminated

ring behind the control knob will flash.

Turn the control knob to 0. Wait until the appliance is

cool enough and then check whether all the burner

parts are in the correct position. Check whether the

burner or the ignition plug are covered in food remnants

function.The appliance is automatically switched off if it

has been in operation for an extended period. How long

the appliance waits before switching itself off depends

on the setting (setting 12 = 1 hour, setting 1 = 4 hours).

orange and white alternately.

the appliance again as usual.
