The main switch indicator will be turned on. 2. Press and turn the desired burner control knob anticlockwise to the required setting. The flame will ignite automatically and the hotplate indicator light will come on after a few seconds. If the burner does not switch on, wait at least a minute until trying again. Note: If after pressing the main switch, no burner comes on, the appliance will automatically switch off after three minutes. Safety system All the hotplates have a security device (thermocouple). If the burner is switched off during operation (e.g. due to a draught), the appliance automatically switches on the hotplate again. If reignition is not successful (e.g. due to food remains on the burner), the supply of gas to this burner is cut off and the burner hotplate indicator flashes. Turn the control knob to 0 and check the section on Operating indicators and error messages. Switching off Switching off a burner: turn the control knob clockwise to the off setting. Switching off the hob: after finishing cooking, turn all the controls to setting 0 and turn off the appliance with the main switch. The main switch indicator will be turned off. Automatic off After six hours of operation, the appliance switches off automatically. Turn all control knobs to setting 0; the appliance can now be switched on again. Power levels The progressive control knobs can be used to control the power needed, from minimum to maximum power. For dual double-flame burners, the inner and outer flames can be controlled separately. The available power levels are as follows: Operating and residual heat indicator All the hotplates have an operating and residual heat indicator which comes on when the flame on the corresponding hotplate is lit. Once the hotplate is switched off, the residual heat indicator remains on indicating that the hotplate temperature is too high. Do not touch the hotplate while the indicator light is on. After a while the residual heat indicator will go off, indicating that the temperature of the hotplate has dropped and is no longer too high. Care must then be taken when touching the appliance to avoid burns, since the hotplate may not have completely cooled down. Protection against overheating The hob has an overheating protection system to protect the electronics. This system switches off all the burners in case of overheating, with the operating indicators of all the burners and main switch starting to flash. Turn all control knobs to setting 0. Wait until the appliance has cooled down sufficiently and the main switch operating indicator has turned off. Now you can reconnect the appliance normally. The rapid flickering of the burner operating indicators switches off or is replaced by the residual heat indicator. Childproof lock Activating the childproof lock: 1.
