For a minor consumption of gas and a better efficiency it is advisable to use pans having a diameter suitable to the burners, as shown in the table. It is also advisable that, as soon as a liquid starts to boil you should lower the flame sufficiently to maintain simmering point. In case the burner flame accidentally goes out, close the command switch and try to ignite again after not less than 1 minute. During cooking, when using fats or oils, take particular care as they can, when over-heated, self-ignite. Minimum and maximum diametres of recipients which can be placed on the burners.

Connection must be carried out in conformity with the regulations and dispositions of the laws in force. Before connecting ensure that: - The limiter valve and the electrical mains can support the voltage of the appliance (see registration plate). - The power supply is correctly earthed according to the regulations in force. - The plug or omnipolar interrupter used can be easily reached once the appliance has been installed. Fit the cable with a plug suitable to the voltage and connect to an appropriate security socket. If a direct connection to the mains is required, an omnipolar interrupter with a minimum opening of 3mm between contacts, dimensioned to the voltage and corresponding to the regulations in force, should be interposed between the appliance and the supply. The yellow/green earth cable must not be interrupted by the interrupter. The brown coloured phase cable (situated at terminal "L" of the terminal box) must always be connected to the network phase.
