4 / SPECIAL MESSAGES, DIFFICULTIES

DURING OPERATION

• •
YOU OBSERVE THAT:
•
Lighting
•
When you press on a knob, there are
sparks on all of the burners simultaneously.
•
In reduced heat mode, the burner goes
out or the flames remain high.
•
The flames look irregular or uneven.
•
During cooking, the knobs become hot.
•
On lighting, the flames light, then go out
as soon as the knob is released.
WHAT YOU SHOULD DO:
. Check the electrical connection of your appliance.
. Check that the spark plugs are clean
. Check that the burners are clean and properly assembled
. If the hob is attached to the work top, check that the mounting brackets
are not deformed.
. Check that the gaskets under the knobs are not coming out of their
lodging.
This is normal. The lighting function is centralised and controls all of the
burners simultaneously.
. Avoid strong air currents in the room.
. Check that the gas type being used corresponds to the injectors
installed (Read about markings on the injectors in the "Changing the Gas
Supply" chapter).
Reminder: The cooking hobs are sold pre-set for use with network gas
(natural gas).
. Check that the burner power screws are properly set (See the
"Changing the Gas Supply" chapter).
. Check the cleanliness of the burners and injectors under the burners,
the assembly of the burners, etc...
. Check that there is enough gas in the bottle.
. Use small saucepans on the burners located closest to the knobs. Large
cookware should be used on the largest burners, which are farther away
from knobs. Properly place the saucepan in the centre of the burner. It
should not spill over onto the knobs.
. Press firmly down on the knobs and hold them down for a few seconds
after the appearance of flames.
. Check that the parts of the burner are correctly mounted.
. Check that the gaskets under the knobs are not coming out of their
lodging.
. Avoid strong draughts in the room.
. Light your burner before placing your saucepan on it.
