Grates Installation

① Left/Right Grate(same)
② Center Grate

The three cooktop grates are designed to fit in specific positions on the cooktop. For maximum stability, these grates should only be used in their proper positions.

To properly setup your cooking grates, please follow these steps:

1. Take out the three grates and find the center grate first. Note, the left and right grids are exactly the same.
2. Gently lower the legs of the center grate so they rest in the center grate dimples of the cooktop.
3. Take the other two grates and make sure the thicker sides of the grates face the outer left and right sides of the cooktop.
4. Gently lower the legs of the grates into the dimples of the cooktop. When properly installed, neither grate will make contact with the overhangs of the center grate.

Fast Ignition

Take note which knob controls which burner. This appliance is equipped with an electronic ignition device. Simply press the knob downward and turn it counterclockwise to HI until the burner lights. If it does not light within the first 15 seconds, turn the knob to OFF and wait for 60 seconds before attempting to light it again. This cooktop has a fast ignition device. When the knob is released, the solenoid valve will not cut off power immediately. It will still maintain continuous current to provide energy to the ignition needle. Therefore, the igniter will continue to maintain the ignition state for 1 to 3 seconds, which provides better ignition rate.

In Case of a Power Failure

In the event of a power failure, the surface burners can be lit manually. Using extreme caution, hold a lit match near the ports beneath the surface burner cap, then push the knob in and slowly turn it counterclockwise. Once lit, surface burners will continue to operate normally.

Flame Failure Device

If the flame goes out accidentally a safety device will be activated about 60 seconds later and automatically cut off the gas supply to the cooktop even if the burner knob is still on. If this happens, turn the burner knob to the OFF position, wait 60 seconds, and then try to relight the burner.

Cookware size limitation

Please choose the proper Pan before cooking:

1. Please make sure the diameter of the pan used is equal or more in size to the cooking gratesner.
2. Try to avoid rubbing or banging the cooktop on the cooking grate to protect the cast iron grate.
3. A Wok can be used on the Center Tr-Ring Bumer only. Before using your wok, please attach the included Wok attachment grate onto the center burner.

Burner	Minimum	Maximum
RF/LF	N/A	260mm
M	220mm	300mm
RR	N/A	200mm
LR	N/A	260mm

Always make sure your pot handles are turned facing you or to the side when using your cook-top. Make sure you do not have a pot handle over a hot burner. This will minimize the chance of having any accidents or personal injury.

Operation Instruction

There is the operation methods for FOTILE gas stove knob, please refer to Fig.1.

(A)

(B)

Fig.1

First of all, check whether knobs is in the "OFF" position (refer to Fig.1 A). Then turn on the gas switch, press the stove knobs, contrarotate 90 degrees (refer to Fig.1 B), to confirm the flame is lighting up. If the flame extinguishes after your hand off the knobs, then please return the knobs to "OFF" position, and repeat the above operations:

Fire Adjustment

Turn the control knobs to adjust the flame level. Turn the knob counterclockwise, 90° for high flame, 180° for middle flame, and 270° for low flame.

The Center knob controls the Tri-Ring burner. The Tri-Ring burner consists of 3 rings of fire. The outer ring is controlled separately, and the two inner rings are adjusted simultaneously. When the knob is turned to 90° all three rings of fire will be at the maximum state achieving 5kW. Turn the knob from 90° to 180° and the outer flame is gradually decreased while the inner two flames remained unchanged. At 180° the outer flame is in the minimum burning state, while the inner flames remain unchanged. If you continue to turn the center knob from 180° to 270° the outer fire ring fades out gradually and then the inner flames begin to diminish. At a full 270° the inner flame rings are at a minimum flame state. Turn the knob back to any position between 90° and OFF and the outer ring and 2 inner rings of fire change synchronously to ensure that the pot is evenly heated.
