 How to use the gas hob

Gas burners
The gas flow to the burner can be regulated by turning the corresponding control knob to one of the following positions.

• OFF (close valve)
• High (maximum aperture or flow)
• Low (minimum aperture or flow)

The size of flame depends on the position of the related burner control knob
The burner should be set at large flame during the initial phase of the cooking to allow quick boiling of the cooking contents. After boiling then turn the control knob to small flame for slow warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions. Other flame adjustment can be achieved by positioning the indicator between the large flame and small flame. Never adjust the flame size between the large flame and Off position.

Igniting the burners
The appliance is equipped with automatic ignition system and flame failure safety device. To ignite the burner, carried out the following steps:

•  Press and turn the corresponding control knob anti-clockwise to the large flame position. The gas burner will be ignited.
• At this position, hold down the control knob for 5 seconds to allow the flame to heat up the thermocouple.
• By this time, release the knob and the flame shall be remained lighted up.
•  Turn the control knob to achieve the flame as desired.
•  If the flame can’t be lighted, turn the control knob clockwise to the off position. Then repeat step a to step c.
•  After finished cooking, turn the control knob clockwise to the off position.

Battery Ignition
The automatic ignition system is powered by a 1.5 V battery. If the automatic ignition does not work, check the battery compartment under the gas hob to ensure that the battery is positioned correctly. Replace the battery if necessary.In the event, the automatic ignition fail to operate, ignite the burner with a match or gas lighter.

Selection of burners and diameters of pan
On the control panel, near every knob, there is a diagram indicate which burner is controlled by that knob. Select the burner in according to the diameter of the pan used and the heat input. The recommended burners for the flat bottom pan diameters are as follow:

It is important that the diameter of the pan be suitable to the heat input of the burner. During usage, adjustment of the control knob would be required to ensure that the flame do not extend out from beneath the pan. Correct use of Ultra-rapid burner
To use the wok, you need to position the wok directly onto center of the pan support. Recommended wok top open diameter shall not exceed 36 cm.
For gas hobs models without Auxiliary and auxiliary burners, when using the flat bottom pan with diameter less than 12 cm, you need to position the mini trivet provided onto the pan support. After lighting the burner, adjust the control knob so that the flame length do not extend out from the beneath of the pan so as to prevent overheating the pan handle . Flame failure safety device
This gas hob is equipped with flame failure safety device. In the event, the flame is accidently extinguished, the supply of gas to that burner will be shut off. Before re-lighting the burner, turn off the burner control knob and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute.
