KORTING HG675CW - Manual (Page 27)

The ignition device must not be pressed for more that 15 seconds. If the burner does not start in 15 seconds,
wait for at least 1 minute before trying again the electric ignition.
Note: If the local gas supply is particularly hard to ignite, repeat the operation assuring that there is no pan
on the pan support and turn the knob to the maximum setting position.
Important: These hobs are equipped with the flame failure safety device that blocks the gas flow in case
if there is no flame burning, for any reason. When lighting the burner, you need to press the knob and keep it
pressed for about 4-5 seconds so as the thermocouple warms up deactivating the safety valve, which
otherwise would block the gas flow.
WARNINGS:
Note: the knob must be always positioned between the maximum and minimum, and never between the
maximum and off position.
If the burner is difficult to light on, or if the flame is high or irregular, turn off the hob immediately and call the
Service centre.
Choosing the right burner
The symbols stamped on the control panel next to the knobs (see figure 9 above) indicate which knob
corresponds to each burner.
To choose the most suitable burner, you must consider the diameter of the pan as well as the pan capacity.
(see the table below).
The diameter of the pan should be proportioned to the burner heating surface in order to ensure good
cooking performances.

USING THE GRIDS
The grids are designed to make the appliance easy and safe to use.
Ensure that the grids are properly positioned before using the appliance.
Furthermore, make sure that the protective rubber feet are correctly positioned.
Adapter grid for small pots or pans (figure 10).
The Grid for small pots or small pans is placed on top of the auxiliary burner grid (the smallest one) for pots
or pans of reduced diameter, used to prevent small pans from falling and to secure a balanced position of the
smaller cookware.
