Your New Hob:

Gas burners

Fig 1.

Each control knob indicates which burner it controls. Fig 1.

To light a burner, press the burner switch and turn it left to the maximum position, keeping it in this position for a few seconds until the burner lights before releasing and adjusting it to the required position. Hold the knob at the maximum position for a few seconds until the burner ignites and then release and set the knob to the desired setting. If the burner does not light at the first attempt, repeat the operation.

If your hob does not come with any kind of automatic ignition system, then light the burners with a naked flame (cigarette lighter, matches, etc.).

If the spark plugs are dirty, then a fault may occur in the ignition system. Keep them completely clean. Clean the spark plugs using a small brush, remembering that the plugs must not receive any kind of violent impact.

If your hob is equipped with burners with safety valves which prevent gas from being released should the burners accidentally go out, proceed to light as described above, but keep the control knob pressed in until the burners light and then for a few more seconds once alight. If complete ignition does not occur, repeat the operation keeping the knob pressed in for approx. 10 seconds

To turn the burners off, turn the control knob in a clockwise direction to the ●setting.

Your modern functional hob is equipped with progressive valves which permit you to find the perfect flame setting between maximum and minimum.

Depending on the model that you have purchased, your hob may come with a triple-flame burner, the perfect system for cooking paellas, using woks, etc.

Gas appliances create both heat and humidity in the room they are used in. Make sure that your kitchen is properly ventilated: keep natural ventilation outlets open or install a mechanical ventilation system (extractor fan). When using your appliance for a prolonged period of time, it may be necessary to provide additional ventilation e.g. by opening a window (without creating a draught) or turning up the setting on your mechanical ventilation system.

An orange-coloured flame is normal and it is produced in the presence of dust in the atmosphere, spillages, etc.

Recommended receptacle diameters (cm.)

Depending on model:

BURNER MAXIMUM MECHANICERTACCEPTACLE
Triple flame:	>22 cm
Rapid:	22 cm 26 cm
Semi-rapid:	14 cm	20 cm
Auxiliary:	12 cm 14 cm

Additional pan support:

Fig 2.

Depending on the model that you have purchased, your hob may come equipped with an additional pan support. This pan support is essential when using the triple-flame burner for receptacles with diameters of more than 26 cm, griddles, terracotta casseroles and all kinds of concave receptacles (woks, etc...) Fig 2. If you do not have a pan support, then these are available from your Service Centre, code 484128 // 363300.

Coffee pot support: Depending on the model that you have purchased, your hob may come equipped with an additional coffee pot support. This pan support is only for use on the auxiliary burner for receptacles with diameters of less than 10 cm. If you do not have a pan support, then these are available from your Service Centre, code 184200.

The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for the non-use or misuse of these additional pan support.

Warnings concerning cooking:

DON'Ts

DOs

Do not use small receptacles on large burners. The flame should not touch the sides of receptacles.

Do not cook without lids or with lids only partially covering receptacles. You are wasting energy.

Do not use receptacles with uneven bases. They lengthen cooking times and increase energy consumption.

Always use suitably sized receptacles on each burner. This helps avoid excessive gas consumption and prevents receptacles from getting tarnished. Always use lids.

Only use thick-, flat-based saucepans, frying pans and casseroles.

Always place receptacles in the middle of burners.

Do not place receptacles on burners off centre. They could tip over. Do not use wide-based receptacles on the burners nearest to the controls. When centred on the burner, they could touch the controls or raise the temperature in the area. This may damage the hob.

Do not place receptacles directly on top of burners.

Always place receptacle on the pans support. Make sure that the metal grids and the tops of the burners are correctly positioned before using them.

Do not use excessive weights or strike the hob with heavy objects.

Handle receptacles on the hob with care.

Do not use two burners or heat sources for a single recipient. Do not use baking trays, earthenware dishes, etc... at full heat for a long time.

Only use one recipient per burner. Use the extra mental grid on the burner with three flames.

Cleaning and maintenance:

DON'Ts

Do not use scouring powder, oven cleaner sprays, or abrasive pads that may scratch the glass. Never use sharp objects such as knives or wire wool to remove food remains that have become encrusted onto the surface. Do not use knives, scrapers, or similar implements for cleaning the joins between the glass and the rims of the burners or the metal surrounds. Do not slide recipients over the glass as they may scratch it. Similarly, do not drop hard or sharp objects onto the glass. Avoid knocking any part of the edge of the cooking plate.

Grains of sand, which may, for example, come from cleaning vegetables, can scratch the glass surface.

DOs

Once the appliance is cold, clean it with a sponge and soapy water.

Clean the surface of the heating elements once they have cooled down, each time they are used. Even small amounts of dirt burn when it is switched on again.

The burners and pan supports must be cleaned regularly to keep them clean. This is done by submerging them in soapy water and scrubbing them with a non-metal brush to keep the holes and slits free from obstruction so they can give a perfect flame. Dry the burner covers whenever wet or damp.

After cleaning and drying the burners, make sure that the covers are properly in position on the flame diffuser.

The high temperatures suffered by the cover on the triple-flame burner ring and the stainless steel parts on your hob (plate rings, grease trays, area around burners, etc) may become discoloured over time. This is NORMAL. Clean them after use with a product suitable for stainless steel.

After washing the pan supports, dry them thoroughly before cooking with them again. The presence of droplets of water or dampness at the beginning of the cooking process may damage the enamel surface.

Be careful with the feet on the metal grids when cleaning them; if they are detached, the grid may scratch the glass next time it is used.
