INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Choosing a location

• This appliance must not be installed on any combustible material.
• The vertical clearance above the cooking surface to any combustible materials must be at least 600mm.
• This appliance must be installed accordance with Australian Standards AS 4557 and AS 5601 and in accordance with local authority.
• When using LPG in an enclosure, ventilation must be provided. Gas is highly explosive and can cause serious injury and damage to property if allowed to accumulate and then be ignited.
• This appliance is intended to be built into a bench top with a minimum depth of 600mm.
• Avoid windy positions as this will affect cooking performance and burner efficiency. If this situation cannot be avoided some shielding may be necessary.
• If the chosen location is exposed to rain consideration will need to be given for water drainage. Some of the rain can drain through the benchtop hole and through the product.

The mounting enclosure

• The burner requires a non-combustible barrier under the burner module to prevent excessive temperatures being accessed. The barrier panel is to be placed 30mm under the base of unit.
• For ULPG use, cabinetry below the barbecue must have low level ventilation to prevent the possibility of ULPG accumulating.
• The mounting enclosure must be constructed from non-combustible materials. Suitable materials for construction include masonry, granite, marble, Hardiplank®, Villaboard® over a metal frame or tiles. Any combustible materials within 200mm of the barbecue must be protected in accordance with clause 6.10.1.2 of AS/NZS 5601.1.

GAS REQUIREMENTS

Natural Gas requirements

• The enclosure must be constructed so that access can be gained to the Natural Gas regulator at all times.
• For Natural Gas the gas supply is required to be connected to 1.2m flexible hose supplied and therefore must be located within this distance.
• The flexible hose has a quick connect gas coupling. he corresponding mating fitting will be required at the gas supply end.
• For pipe sizing requirements for supply pipe refer to AS5601.

Universal LPG Requirements

• If an LPG bottle is to be stored in the enclosure under the burner unit, it must be isolated from the burner unit with a non-combustible panel. The enclosure must comply with the requirements of AS5601.
  • AS5601 ventilation requirements for cylinder storage are:
• Where of sheet metal or similar impervious construction there shall be ventilation openings at the top and bottom of the enclosure or recess, each opening providing a free area of at least 200cm^2 for every cylinder enclosed.
• For ULPG installations having enclosed cabinetry below the separation panel that does not contain a gas bottle, low level venting must be installed. This is to allow the gas which is heavier than air escape from the enclosure in the situation where there may be a leak. A minimum opening of 200cm ^2 is required.

LOCATING INTEGRATED BURNER ADJACENT TO INTEGRATED BARBECUE

3D diagram of a rectangular electronic component with two internal compartments and mounting holes, shown without any text or symbols.

• If the integrated burner is to be located along side a built in barbecue, a minimum distance between them must be observed. This prevents heat transfer between the units.
  • Refer to manufacturers instructions for construction requirements of specific bench top materials.

If the integrated burner is located adjacent to the built in barbecue and the units are to be connected to the same outlet or cylinder, the gas line must branch off prior to the regulator. Each appliance must have its own regulator.

For Natural Gas

This can be achieved with hard plumbing to each of the regulators or by branching off after the flexible hose to each regulator.

From the regulator to the appliance the connection method remains unchanged.

For Universal LPG

This is achieved by adding fittings to branch off at the cylinder connection on the high pressure side. To each branch the regulator and hose assembly is fitted for each appliance. From the regulator and hose assembly to the appliance the connection method remains unchanged.

This appliance must be installed by a qualified licensed person. For piping size requirements for supply pipe refer to AS5601.

SETTING UP THE BURNER

Setting up the burner module in mounting enclosure

• After the enclosure has been constructed as described, position the assembled burner module into the cut-out hole.
• Check that the burner module is level and is firmly supported.
• Secure to enclosure with screws as shown. Do not over-tighten when securing unit to fixture as it may damage or distort inside walls.
• Connect to gas supply (Universal LPG or Natural Gas) and leak test.

BURNER OPERATION

Control functions

Before lighting the burner:

• Check that all hoses and gas fittings are tight.
• Remove or pivot lid to open.

NOTE The lid is designed as a cover for weather protection. The lid is not designed to be used as a cooking hood.

• Check control knob is in the 'OFF' position.
  • Ensure that the cooking surfaces are clean.
• Ensure that the gas isolation valve or the LPG bottle are 'ON'.

Lighting instructions

• Do not attempt to light burner with the cooking surfaces covered.
• To light a burner, depress the knob and rotate to 'RAPID PREHEAT'.
• If burner did not light, turn knob to the 'OFF' position. Allow gas to disperse, then repeat lighting procedure.

Manual lighting

• If, in the event of the automatic ignition system not working, the burner can be lit manually.
• Rotate the knob to the 'HIGH POSITION' and place a lighted match near to the burner.
• If the unit does not operate correctly refer to the troubleshooting section on page 17.

To turn the burner off

- When cooking is complete, rotate the knob fully clockwise so the pointer on the knob is positioned at the off position.

i IMPORTANT!

The burner trivet is designed for use with flat bottom pan or for a wok. This is achieved by simply turning the trivet over to suit the type of cooking desired. When using flat bottom pan ensure pan base diameter is at least 150mm to ensure pan stability on trivet

PIVOTING LID SAFETY LEG

To ensure that the user remembers to turn off the gas before closing the lid, a pivoting safety leg has been fitted.

When closing the lid the safety leg will pivot forward and rest against the trim surface to prevent the lid closing. After ensuring the gas has been turned off, to fully close the lid, the leg needs to be rotated backwards.

WARNING!

THE SLIMLINE LID MUST NOT BE CLOSED WHEN THE BURNER IS OPERATING.

Closing the lid during burner operation can cause discolouration and damage to the lid and burner unit.

CLEANING AND CARE

The Electrolux integrated burner has been constructed from select grade stainless steel which, if not cared for, may discolour over time. To keep your appliance looking its best we recommend that the cooking surfaces are cleaned after every use.

Cleaning

• Always ensure the appliance is turned off before cleaning.
• This appliance contains aluminium fittings. Do not use caustic based cleaners
• Do not use steam cleaners as this may cause moisture build up on electrical components.
• Always clean the appliance immediately after any food spoilage.

CAUTION!

Do not place burners in a dishwasher.

WARNING!

Please ensure that your appliance is switched off and has cooled down before following the instructions below.

Cleaning of Stainless Steel surfaces

CAUTION!

Do not use abrasive or caustic cleaners, scourers or metal scrapers on the stainless steel surfaces as they may permanently scratch and damage your appliance.

• Wash all stainless steel components, including the slimline lid and control knob cap with a soft dishcloth using hot soapy water.
• The interior can be wiped down with a soft cloth in hot soapy water.
• Ensure that all surfaces are dried with a clean dry cloth.

CAUTION!

Take extra care (particularly when cleaning on and around the control knob) to ensure that water and soapy residue do not enter the control panel, where the valve is located or into the burner. Care should also be taken not to disturb the spark electrode.

Trivet

The trivet can be removed for cleaning. Clean by washing in warm soapy water. Take care when replacing the trivets as dropping them may damage the enamelled surfaces.

Burner

The burner parts should be checked for blockages and cleared as required. If caps, crown and cup are heavily soiled, use a non-abrasive cleaning compound.

MAINTENANCE

IMPORTANT!

Special note on "tea staining"

Sometimes stainless steel surfaces are affected by a brown discolouration called tea staining. This usually occurs in areas which use high heat and can be easily removed using specialised stainless steel cleaners. For best results, we recommend that specialised cleaners be used regularly on all stainless steel components. You will find these cleaners at Electrolux spare parts outlets.

Burners

Burners should be checked at least once per year and cleaned as necessary. Inspect burners to ensure no residues have been deposited and gas ports are clear.

NOTE: that environmental conditions need to be taken into account with regards to the maintenance required on your product. In particular units installed in humid climates or seaside locations will be more susceptible to surface corrosion/discolouration over time. In these conditions Electrolux strongly recommends cleaning and drying your barbecue after every use and covering it when not in use to minimise exposure to the elements.
