Before Using Your New Hob

Before using your new hob, please:

• Read this manual fully, taking special note of the 'Safety Warnings' section.
• Plug the hob into the electricity supply and turn it on so that the ignition circuit will work.

!

• This appliance is for cooking purposes only. It must not be used for other purposes, for example room heating.
• The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat, moisture and products of combustion in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated especially when the appliance is in use: 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, e.g. opening of a window, or more effective ventilation, e.g. increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where present.

Lighting the Hob

1. Choose the control for the burner you intend using.
2. Press the burner control in lightly and turn anti-clockwise to the large flame symbol ♦.
3. Press the burner control in fully. The spark ignition will operate and gas will be released whilst you hold in the control.

Continue to hold the control in for approximately 5 - 10 seconds after the burner has lit before adjusting to the desired setting. Releasing the control too soon will extinguish the flame due to the flame failure safety feature.

1. Adjust the flame anywhere between the ◆ and positions. Do not adjust the flame between the and Off '●' position.
2. After ignition, check the flames visually. If you see yellow tipped, lifted or unstable flames; turn the control off, and check the assembly of the burner rings and caps. Allow these to cool before touching. Also, make sure that no liquid has entered into the burner cups. If the burner flames go out accidentally, turn the burners off, and do not try to light them again for at least one minute (to allow the gas to disperse).
3. When turning the hob off, turn the control in a clockwise direction. If the control stops at the maximum flame mark, push the control in slightly and continue turning clockwise to the off mark, '●'.

• If the burner does not light within 15 seconds, turn the control off and wait for at least one minute before trying again.
• To switch the burner off, turn the control clockwise to the off position.
  • After use, always turn the controls to the off position.

Manual Ignition (in case of electricity failure)

1. Choose the control for the burner you intend using.

2. Press the burner control in lightly and turn anti-clockwise to the large flame symbol ♦.

3. Hold an ignition source (e.g. candle lighter) close to the side of the burner and press the burner control in fully to release and light the gas.

The control must still be held down for approximately 5 - 10 seconds after the burner has lit. Releasing the controls too soon will extinguish the flame.

1. Adjust the controls as required.

Flame Failure Safety Feature

The flame supervision device (FSD) probe cuts off the gas supply to the burner within one minute if the flame is extinguished.

If the flames are accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner and do not try to light it again for at least one minute (to allow the gas to disperse).

When lighting the burner, hold down the control for approximately 5 - 10 seconds after the burner has lit. Releasing the control too soon will extinguish the flame.

Cookware Guidelines

To get the best out of your hob, follow these simple suggestions:

- Use saucepans with thick flat bottoms. Food in a saucepan with an uneven bottom will take longer to cook.

Simple line drawing of a cooking pot with a checkmark below it (no text or symbols)

Simple line drawing of a cooking pot above a cross symbol (no text or labels)

Simple line drawing of a cooking pot above a horizontal line with a black X symbol below (no text or labels)

- Do not use large saucepans or frying pans that overlap the edges of your hob as this can deflect heat onto your worktop and damage the surface, and may also cause a hazard.

• Always make sure saucepans are stable. Using very heavy saucepans may bend the trivet/pan support or deflect the flame.

• Always lift the cookware when removing from the hob, do not drag.

- When you need to boil, simmer or fry food, first set the temperature to the High position. Once the food is boiling, reduce the temperature to maintain a steady heat to cook your food thoroughly. Doing this will reduce the cooking time and save energy.

- Pan sizes should be as per the table shown below.

Burners Minimum Diameter Maximum Diameter
Extra Large 24 cm 26 cm
Large 20 cm 22 cm
Standard 16 cm 18 cm
Small 10 cm 14 cm

Do not use cooking vessels on the hob that overlap its edges.

• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy.

- Choose cookware of the proper size, material and construction.

- Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.

- Select the proper temperature setting for the cooking task.

Avoid using pans of the maximum diameter on both the large and extra large burners together as these sizes will not allow the pans to sit centrally above the gas flame.

!

If the appliance is to be installed above a cupboard or drawer it is absolutely essential that you place a separating board between the base of the appliance and the drawer unit. This must be fixed in place below the hob (at 70 mm measured from the top of the worktop) to prevent accidental contact with the bottom of the hob which may be hot.

Electrical Connection

The flexible mains lead is supplied connected to a BS1363 fused plug, having a fuse of 3Amp capacity. If this plug does not fit the socket in your home, it should be replaced with a suitable plug as outlined below.

Should the mains lead of the appliance ever require replacing, we recommend that this be carried out by a qualified electrician who must replace it with a lead of the same size and temperature rating.

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green & Yellow = Earth

Blue = Neutral

Brown = Live

The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal marked E ( 12 ) Earth.

The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal marked N (Neutral).

The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal marked L (Live).

Ensure all screws are adequately tightened. Do not over tighten as you may risk damaging the screw threads.

The plug and socket must be accessible after installation, or an all-pole disconnection switch provided in the fixed wiring in accordance with the local wiring regulations.

Live (Brown) Earth (Green/Yellow) Neutral (Blue)

Gas Connection

Any gas installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe Registered engineer.

Connection to the gas supply should be with either rigid or semi-rigid pipe, i.e. steel or copper. The connection should be suitable for connecting to 1/2 inch BSP male thread. When the final connection has been made, it is essential that a thorough leak test is carried out on the hob and installation. Ensure that the main connection pipe does not exert any strain on the hob.

It is important to install the elbow correctly, with the shoulder on the end of the thread, fitted to the hob connecting pipe. Failure to ensure the correct assembly will cause leakage of gas.

Check the Hob After Installation & Before Using

When the hob has been fully installed it will be necessary to check the minimum flame setting. To do this, follow the step below,

1. Turn the gas tap to the maximum position and ignite
2. Set the gas tap to the minimum flame position then turn the control from minimum to maximum several times. If the flame is unstable or is extinguished adjust the gas rate.
3. Perform a gas tightness test.

Conversion from NG to LPG or from LPG to NG

The replacement/conversion of the gas hob should only be undertaken by a Gas Safe Registered Engineer. The hob is supplied for use with Natural Gas only and cannot be used on any other gas without modification. It can be converted from NG to LPG or LPG to NG providing the correct injectors are fitted and the gas rate is adjusted to suit.

Natural Gas

In the United Kingdom flexible connections must NOT be used for built in product, rigid or semi-rigid pipework must be used.

LP Gas

In the United Kingdom flexible type hoses must NOT be used for built in products, rigid or semi-rigid pipework must be used. Ensure it is suitable for use on LP Gas up to 50mbar pressure rise.

In all other countries this appliance must be installed in accordance with local regulations and standards.

Method

1. Ensure that the gas taps are in the Off '' position
2. Isolate the hob from the electrical supply
3. Remove all pan supports, burner caps, rings, crowns and controls.
4. With the aid of a 7 mm box spanner the burner injectors can then be unscrewed and replaced by the appropriate injectors. See the Burner Configuration Table for details. Note the size of the injector being removed to ensure the corresponding size of the new injector is used, NG vs LPG.

Adjusting the Gas Rate

This unit has been set at the factory for NG but can be checked after the correct pressure has been reached.

The bypass adjustment screw, which is located on the gas tap body, can be adjusted with the aid of a thin bladed screwdriver as follows:

1. Ignite the burner and set the control to its minimum position.
2. Remove the control. Also remove rubber seal if needed to gain easier access.
3. FOR NG (G20 G25)

Rotate the screw slowly until a minimum regular flame is achieved.

(The flame will diminish when the screw is turned clockwise and increase when turned anti-clockwise.

FOR LP Gas (G30 G31)

Rotate the screw fully clockwise - this is the fixed turn down position for LP Gas.

1. Upon completion stick the replacement rating plate sticker on the under side of the hob.
2. Replace the rubber seal (if removed) and the control.

When the setting is right check regulation by quickly rotating the control from the maximum to the minimum delivery position. The flame must not go out and remain stable throughout the range.
