The installer must ensure that the correct electrical connection has been made and that it is compliant with safety regulations. Before connecting to the power supply, make sure that: • the appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with the law. € the socket can withstand the maximum power of the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate. € the voltage is in the range between the values indicated on the data plate. If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an authorised technician to replace it. The internal burner has a nozzle, the external burner has two (of the same size). Replace the nozzle with models suited to the new type of gas (see table 1).

ECODESIGN • Adjusting the burners’ primary air Does not require adjusting. Remove the knob and adjust the adjustment screw, which is positioned in or next to the tap pin, until the flame is small but steady. Gas burners Each burner can be adjusted to one of the following settings using the corresponding control knob: ● Off Maximum Minimum To light one of the burners, hold a lit match or lighter near the burner and, at the same time, press down and turn the corresponding knob anti-clockwise to the maximum setting. Since the burner is fitted with a safety device, the knob should be pressed for approximately 2-3 seconds to allow the automatic device keeping the flame alight to heat up. When using models with an ignition button, light the desired burner pressing down the corresponding knob as far as possible and turning it anticlockwise towards the maximum setting. If a flame is accidentally extinguished, turn off the control knob and wait for at least 1 minute before trying to relight it. To switch off the burner, turn the knob in a clockwise direction until it stops (when reaches the “●” position). Discrete flame adjustment The selected burner can be adjusted - by means of the knob - to 5 different power levels. To shift between levels, simply turn the knob towards the desired power level. The selected power level is indicated by the corresponding symbol (symbols ) and, on hobs equipped with a display, by the LEDs that turn on (5 = max. The system guarantees accurate flame adjustment and uniform cooking results by facilitating selection of the desired power level.
