[. . . ] Oil may seriously damage the environment. Dispose of it in a closed container at your nearest collection point or, failing this, dispose of it in your rubbish bin. Although this last solution is far from perfect, your oil will be taken to a controlled refuse dump where it will not be allowed to pollute water. You and your children will appreciate it. [. . . ] If the burner does not light at the first attempt, repeat the operation. If your hob does not come with any kind of automatic ignition system, then light the burners with a naked flame (cigarette lighter, matches, etc. ). If the spark plugs are dirty, then a fault may occur in the ignition system. Clean the spark plugs using a small brush, remembering that the plugs must not receive any kind of violent impact. If your hob is equipped with burners with safety valves which prevent gas from being released should the burners accidentally go out, proceed to light as described above, but keep the control knob pressed in until the burners light and then for a few more seconds once alight. If complete ignition does not occur, repeat the operation keeping the knob pressed in for approx. 10 seconds To turn the burners off, turn the control knob in a clockwise direction to the 0 setting. Your modern functional hob is equipped with progressive valves which permit you to find the perfect flame setting between maximum and minimum. Depending on the model that you have purchased, your hob may come with a triple-flame burner, the perfect system for cooking paellas, using woks, etc. Gas appliances create both heat and humidity in the room they are used in. Make sure that your kitchen is properly ventilated: keep natural ventilation outlets open or install a mechanical ventilation system (extractor fan). When using your appliance for a prolonged period of time, it may be necessary to provide additional ventilation e. g. by opening a window (without creating a draught) or turning up the setting on your mechanical ventilation system. 6 An orange-coloured flame is normal and it is produced in the presence of dust in the atmosphere, spillages, etc. Recommended receptacle diameters (cm. ) Depending on model: BURNER Triple flame: Fast: Semi-fast: Auxiliary: Electric plates: MINIMUM Ø RECEPTACLE 22 cm 22 cm 12 cm 10 cm MAXIMUM Ø RECEPTACLE 26 cm 20 cm 12 cm 14 cm Additional pan support: fig 2.
