Elements of a burner
Whenever you reassemble a burner,
check that all the components are pro-
perly in place, as a part that is wrongly
positioned can lead to overheating and
damage the glass.
Igniting the burners
* Make sure that the knobs are in their
correct position.
* Turn on the gas at the mains or turn the
gas cylinder’s tap.
* Press down the burner control.
* Keeping the burner control pressed
down, turn it all the way till the gas igni-
tes. Keep it pressed down for between 2
and 5 seconds so that the safety ther-
mocouple can take effect.
* Set the control to the position required.
The ignition (ceramic and electrode)
should be cleaned regularly and care-
fully in order to avoid ignition problems.
Check, too, that the grooves in the bur-
ners have not become obstructed.
