Default Gas Cooker off mains?!

Unplug it temporarily and see what difference it makes. If
there's a battery or capacitor involved, none. If not, then it
won't fire automatically.

I've not known any that use a rechargeable battery. After all,

in the
event of a mains failure you could use a match...

Might have a back up battery if there's a clock/timer, though,

but then
again I doubt it.
