Turn all the control knobs to the "off" position. Press the main switch and turn it fully clockwise. Warnings It is normal to hear a slight whistling noise while the burner is operating. When it is first used, it is normal for the burner to give off odours; this does not pose any risk and does not indicate a malfunction; they will disappear in time. A few seconds after the burner is switched off, a sound (thud) will be produced. This is not a fault - this means that the safety device is no longer operating. If the ignition sparkers are dirty they will not light properly. Clean them periodically using a small non-wire brush. Bear in mind that the ignition sparkers must not suffer any serious impacts.

Food can be prepared in various ways in a wok: it can be stewed, stir fried, cooked on a low heat, pan-fried or steamed. It could be said that woks serve as both as a saucepan and a frying pan and, owing to their shape and size, they can be used to cook quite large ingredients. When cooking with a wok, heat is diffused more uniformly and gently; the intense heat which accumulates means that food takes less time to cook and also requires less oil, making it one of the quickest and healthiest ways of cooking. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions when cooking with a wok pan. [. . . ] The automatic on function does not work. There may be food or cleaning products stuck between the ignition sparkers and the burners. The burner covers are not correctly positioned.
