The hotplates are fitted with mains powered electronic spark ignitors, so must be connected to mains power supply (i.e. nominal 220~240 V ac) to operate. If power is not available, the hotplate will still work but the burners will have to be lit with a match or similar.

Depressing the gas control knob of any burner will activate the spark ignition for all burners. To light the burner, turn the gas control knob to the High Flame setting of the burner to be lit, while at the same time depressing the gas control knob to activate the spark ignition. Once the burner is alight continue to depress the gas control knob for 5 – 10 seconds to allow the flame safeguard to activate. If when you release the gas control knob, the burner flame goes out the flame safeguard has not heated up enough so repeat the ignition procedure after waiting 1 minute for gas to disperse. If problems with burner lighting persist, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section of these instructions.
If power is not available, light a match or similar, then turn the gas control knob for the burner to be lit, to the High Flame setting. Once again if problems with burner lighting persist, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section of these instructions.
When burner lights, adjust desired flame height. On finishing, turn control knob to off position marked with a black DOT.
