Frequently Asked Questions - AFG915BKP Artusi

How do I convert the gas hob from natural gas to LPG?
Conversion requires a conversion kit (usually supplied). Turn off gas and electricity, replace injectors for each burner, adjust air shutter, and adjust minimum flow screws. Always consult a licensed gas fitter.
What should I do if the oven does not heat up?
Check the circuit breaker and ensure the oven is set to a program. If still not heating, the heating element or thermostat may be faulty. Contact Artusi service.

INSTALLATION

PROVISION FOR VENTILATION

The room where the Cooker is installed should have permanent ventilation as follows:

"Ventilation must be in accordance with AS/NZS 5601 - Gas Installations. In general, the appliance should have adequate ventilation for complete combustion of gas, proper flueing and to maintain temperature of immediate surroundings within safe limits."

Do not install in a bed-sitting room, a bathroom or shower room. If there is another fuel burning appliance in the same room, a higher level of ventilation will be required, you should consults "the safety requirements".

In addition to the above, during prolonged use, opening a window in the same room is recommended. This will avoid the build up of excessive moisture and condensation.

POSITIONING

Important: Fix the chain located next to the gas connection on both sides of the cooker to the wall to prevent the cooker from tilting. Both chains must be securely fixed.

Make sure that the wall surface behind the Cooker is non-combustable (will not catch fire).

Where a painted surface is adjacent, a fire retardant paint surface is recommended. Wallpaper, wood, or fabric should not be used behind or next to the cooker.

Clearances to combustible materials

"Any adjoining wall surface (side or rear) situated within 200mm of any hob burner must be a suitable non-combustible material from the edge for a height of 150mm for the entire length of the cooker.

Any combustible construction above the cooker must be at least 650mm above the maintop." Ensure that a power and gas supply are nearby. The Cooker should be located carefully so that the heat produced by it has plenty of space to escape. The diagram below shows an ideal configuration.

min.100 mm min.50 mm '0" mm '0" mm min.650 mm min.400 mm

No part of any adjoining wall surface can be made of combustible materials. The protection of combustible materials required by Clause 5.12.1.1 of AS/NZS 5601 is the fixing of 5 mm thick ceramic tiles to the surface or attaching fire resistant material to the surface and covering with sheet metal with a minimum thickness of 0.4 mm.

Clearances to non- combustible materials

"If the cooker is being fitted next to cupboards or adjoining wall surfaces, which are within 200mm from the edge of the hob burner and of a suitable non-combustible material as specified in AS/NZS 5601, then ensure that a distance of at least 6cm is left between the edge of the cooker and the non-combustible material. This gap is to allow plenty of space for the heat produced by the cooker to escape on each side of the cooker.

Gas and Electricity on

Make sure that the gas supply is turned on and that the appliance is plugged in and switched on. The ignitor needs electricity. In case there is no electric current, the burner can also be lighted using a match.

It is recommended that pans suitable to the size of the burner should be used as follows:

SNAPSRENRUB
fl min. fl max
AUXILIARY 80 mm 160 mmSEMI-RAPID 120 mmRAPIDETRIPLE CROWN200 mm200 mm230 mm230 mm260 mm

Always use pans with a flat base diameter, which are well balanced and stable in use, a pan which overhangs the hotplate should not be used. Avoid using old, misshapen pans, or pans which are unstable when placed on a flat surface. Do not use "split pans" as they are inherently unstable.

To save gas, always position pans centrally over the burners and adjust the flames so that they do not lick up the sides of the pan and only the base is heated. Always put lids on saucepans and boil only the amount of liquid you use. When the liquid has boiled adjust the setting to maintain a simmer. Do not light the burner until the pan is in position and turn off the burner before removing the pan. In hard water areas, descale kettles regularly. For safety keep saucepan handles turned to a safe position so they are out of reach of small children and cannot be accidentally knocked.

To tunr the burner OFF, turn the control knob clockwise to the OFF setting (marked with a dot ●)

PLATE WARMING

Ovenproof plates and dishes may be warmed in the oven on a low temperature setting. Remember do not place items directly into the oven base.

Warning: do not use foil to cover the oven shelves, or any part of the oven interior including the oven base. Foil should only be used to cover food and cooking dishes. Always place items which may boil over (e.g. fruit pies) on a baking tray to prevent spillage burning onto the oven base. Foil used improperly is frequent cause of oven problems and painful accidents. Avoid letting grease deposit collect around the upper heating element: it will cause smoking and may start a fire.

Remember do not place pan or items directly onto the oven base. Never leave unit unattended at hight heat settings. Boil over causes smoking and greasy spill over that may start a fire. If a grease fire should occur in a pan put out the flame by placing a lid on the pan. Do not throw water on a grease fire.

GUIDE FOR FORCED CONVECTION COOKING

Artusi AFG915BKP - GUIDE FOR FORCED CONVECTION COOKING - 1

(Back rolled electric element with fan)

The accessories provided with the oven can be slotted in at 5 positions: the following guide concerns cooking times and thermostat settings using N. 2 shelves on the same time (in position N. 2 and N. 4). Cooked results are a matter of personal preference and may easily be adjusted to suit individual requirements by slight adjustment of the temperature and/or cooking time, or when using more or less shelves in the same time. Preheating of the oven is recommended for 10-15 minutes or until the oven thermostat indicator light switches off to show the selected temperature has been reached.

When using a baking tray it should be placed centrally on the oven shelf with the short sides of the tray parallel to the sides of the oven. Do not use trays, tins or dishes larger than 380mm (15") long, 356 mm (14") wide, as cooking results may be impaired.

USING THE GRILL

The grill is situated in the top of the oven compartment.

The grill pan should be located on the top oven shelf position.

Warning:

Do not place fatty foods too close to the grill and never leave the grill unattended. If fatty foods are grilled, or roasting has been cooked in the oven at a high temperature the grill element may smoke. This is not dangerous and the smoke is caused by the fat burning off when the grill element is hot. Leave the grill element on until the smoking has stopped t-hen use as normal. If a grease fire should occur in a pan put out the flame by placing a lid on the pan. Do not throw water on a grease fire.

SOME SAFETY POINT

Do not use the appliance as a space heater.

If you smell gas

Open a window. Do not use any electrical switches. Immediately extinguish naked flames. Isolate appliance from gas mains supplies via the isolation stopcock. Contact local gas authority or emergency services as appropriate. In the event of food fire. Isolate appliance from electric / gas mains supplies if safe to do so. Try to extinguish flames with the appropriate equipment (fire blanket or extinguishing foam). Do not use water on cooking fat / oil fires.

If in difficulty call emergency services.

  • Do not store or use flammable products or aerosol containers near the hotplate or burners.
  • Never flambe, under an extractor - even if the ventilator is switched off.
    The high flames can cause fire.

For your safety and that of your children

  • Do not store items that are attractive to children above or near the appliance.
  • Keep children well away from the appliance: do not forget that some parts of the appliance or of the pans become very hot and dangerous during use, and will take time to cool down.
  • When cooking, do not use clothes that could catch fire and cause serious injury.
  • Some "Wok" cooking pots are unstable. Check with the manufacturer before purchasing.
  • Avoid using unstable and misshapen pans which may tilt easily and pans with a very small base diameter, e.g. milk pans, single egg poachers. The minimum pan diameter recommended is 125mm (5"). Smaller pans will be unstable.
    Very large pans may cause walls or knobs to overheat. Using pans which are too big may deform the control knobs or discolour the walls. This is not covered by the guarantee.
  • Carefully place all pans centrally over the burners.
    • Always position pan handles safely away from the front of the hotplate and out of danger, particularly from small children.
  • Never leave a chip pan unattended.
  • Pans and kettles with down turned base rims should not be used.
  • Simmering aids such as asbestos or mesh mats are NOT recommended. They will reduce burner performance and could damage the pan supports.
  • Commercially available foil spillage aids are unnecessary on this hotplate.

PROBLEM SOLVER

Any of the following are considered to be abnormal operation and may require servicing: Yellow tipping of the hob burner flame. Sooting up of cooking utensils. Burners not igniting properly. Burners failing to remain alight. Burners extinguished by oven door. Gas valves, which are difficult to turn.

Your Installer should be contacted if you have any problems with the installation.

Before you call a service engineer please check if the problem is something you could fix yourself. The cause of the problem is often a simple one.

THINGS TO TRY BEFORE CALLING FOR AN ENGINEER

Burner does not burn well

Is the burner dirty or damp? Try cleaning and/or drying the burner. Appliance not suitable for your gas type? Check the identification plate on the hotplate base.

Burner does not ignite

Do the burners spark when you press the ignition button? If not is the power on? See 'Checking the power supply' section further on. If the power supply is OK then there is probably something wrong with the ignition system.

Are the electrode or burner slots blocked by debris?

Is the burner dirty or damp? Try cleaning and/or drying the burner. Is the burner trim correctly located?

Are the burner caps correctly located?

Check that there is not a problem with your gas supply. You can do this by making sure that other gas appliances you may have are working.

Pan supports

Aluminium pans may cause a metallic marking on the pan supports which does not affect the durability of the enamel and may be cleaned off with a metal cleaner such as 'Brasso'.

Checking the power supply

First check the socket by trying out another piece of electrical equipment in it.

If that works, renew the fuse in the hotplate plug. Use a 10 amp fuse. If the fuse 'blows' again there is a fault on the hotplate. Do not use a fuse with a higher rating. Do not carry out other electrical work. Unplug the hotplate and tell your installer.

Power Failure

In the event of a failure in the electrical supply the hotplate burners may be lit using a match.

Ventilation

The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device, (mechanical extractor hood). Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening a window, or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where present. For more detail see the Installation Instructions.

OVEN DOES NOT WORK AT ALL

First, when the oven is equipped with timer, check appliance is not programmed to turn on later. If it is, turn to manual setting (i.e. hand symbol). If the button or scale on the timer remains in the automatic position after use, the power supply to the oven will be interrupted. Also, check your appliance is switched on at the mains. Next check for an unexpected power strike by switching on adjacent lights etc. Finally, check fuses and plug wiring. If all these prove satisfactory, call engineer.

LIGHT BULB DOESN'T COME ON

Check bulb for looseness or burned out bulb.

Note: bulb replacement is not covered by your guarantee.

SMOKE COMING FROM OVEN

If oven is still relatively new, this problem is invariably due to protective oil on elements. Otherwise, the answer may be oil or fat which has become deposited on the elements during cooking. In either event, continued use should burn away the residues. On future occasions, try to shield food with foil or keep it further away from element, particularly when grilling.

CLOCK/TIMER DOES NOT WORK

Check to be sure range cord is plugged into outlet completely. Check for a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker. Check for power outage. Check step by step operating Instructions on previous pages.

If, after checking through this section, you cannot resolve your problem please call the number on the data plate fixed to the front cover of these instructions for service and spare parts.

When ordering please quote the appliance name, the colour variant and serial number.

This information can be found on the data plate sealed inside the front appliance drawer.

Maintenance schedule:

To ensure the appliance continues to operate at peak performance, we recommend a routine service call every 2 years for the life of the appliance.
