Dear Customer,

We thank you and congratulate you on your choice.

This practical appliance, which is modern and functional, has been manufactured from top-quality materials which have been subjected to a strict quality control during the entire manufacturing process, and have been carefully tested so that they will meet all your cooking needs.

We strongly advise to read through and follow these simple instructions, so as to ensure that you get perfect results from the moment you first use this appliance. This book contains important information, not only on how to use the appliance, but also on maintenance and safety.

When our products are being transported, they must be provided with suitable protective packaging. However, we have reduced our packaging to the bare essentials, and it is all completely recyclable. You too can contribute to the conservation of the environment by depositing the packaging in the nearest recycling container to your home. Used oil should not be poured down the sink, as this causes serious damage to the environment. Pour it into a sealable container and take it to a recycling point, or simply put in your rubbish bin. It will then finish up in a controlled landfill site, which though it is not the best solution, it does prevent water pollution. Your children and you yourself will appreciate this. Before you get rid of an old appliance, make sure you render it useless, and then take it to a collecting centre for recyclable materials. Ask your local authorities for details on the nearest centre to your home.

The gas burners

Fig. 1.

Pure electrical circuit symbol for a pot, no text or labels present

Each control knob on the oven and on the control panel is clearly marked to show which burner it controls Fig. 1.

To light one of the burners, press in the control knob of the respective burner and turn it to the left, as far as the maximum symbol, and hold it there for a couple of seconds until the burner lights. Now release the knob and turn it to the desired heating setting. If the burner does not light, repeat the process.

If the ignition sparkers are dirty, this makes the burner harder to light, so you should keep them as clean as possible. Clean them using a small brush, and remember that the ignition sparkers must be treated very gently. If the burner goes out (e.g. a draught) when in use, the appliance will switch the hotplate on again automatically. If this ignition is unsuccessful (e.g. as a result of boiled-over liquid on the burner), the flow of gas to this burner is interrupted and an acoustic signal is emitted. Turn the control knob to ● and check whether the cause can be rectified using the table on page 11.

Every hotplate features a safety pilot!

This means that if the flame ever goes out (e.g. is extinguished by boiled-over liquid), the flow of gas is interrupted.

The safety system will indicate any anomalies in its working through acoustic signals (see "Home troubleshooting" section).

The appliance switches off automatically after 6 hours of operation. Turn all the control knobs to the ● position and then you can turn the appliance on again.

To turn off the burner, turn the control knob to the right, to setting ●.

With the modern and functional cooking hob you have purchased, you can have progressive taps fitted which allow you to adjust the flame to the desired heat.

Depending on the model, your cooking hob may have a double-flame burner, which is very practical if you wish to cook with receptacles such as paella pans or Chinese woks (to create all kinds of Asian dishes).

When you are using this gas appliance, it will make the kitchen hot and humid, and therefore you must ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated. Either keep the natural ventilation apertures open, or install an extractor hood. If you use your appliance for a long period of time, you may need extra ventilation - either open a window (though watch out for draughts) or turn up the power on the extractor hood, if possible.

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

Overheating protection

The hob is equipped with overheating protection to protect the electronics. This switches all the burners off in the event of overheating and the “power on/off” indicators in all the burners and the main switch flash.

Turn all control knobs to the ● position. Wait until the appliance has cooled down sufficiently. Now you can switch on the appliance as usual.

Recommended diameter of receptacles (in cm) Depending on the model:

Depending on the model:

BURNER	MINIMUM ∅ OF RECEPTACLE MAXIMUM ∅ OF RECEPTACLE
Double flamme : 3,80 kW	22 cm	28 cm
Quick burner:	22 cm	26 cm
Medium fast:	14 cm	20 cm
Auxiliary burner:	12 cm	14 cm

Additional pan supports:

Depending on which model you have purchased, your cooking hob may include a very useful extra cradle support for use on the double flame burner for receptacles with diameters of over 26 cm, barbecue griddles, earthenware cooking pots and all kinds of concave receptacles (Chinese woks, etc.) Fig. 3.

Pan support for coffee pot: Depending on the model, your cooking hob may include an additional coffee pot support, which is exclusively for use on the auxiliary burner with receptacles of a diameter smaller than 10 cm.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility if these additional pan supports are not used or are used incorrectly.

Notes on cooking:

Here are some cooking guidelines:

Very high High Medium Low
Double flame	Boiling, grilling, browning, paellas and Asian food (woks).	Reheating and keeping things hot: cooked and pre-cooked dishes.

Warnings and suggestions for cooking

DO NOT

Do not use small receptacles on large burners. The flame should never come up the sides of the receptacle.

Never cook without a lid or with the lid half off - you are wasting energy.

Do not use receptacles with uneven bottoms, as they make the food take longer to cook and waste energy.

Do not place a receptacle on one side of a burner, as it could tip over. Do not use large-diameter receptacles on the burners nearest to the control knobs, as the flames might reach them, making them so hot that they could cause injury. Never place receptacles directly on top of the burners.

Do not use excessive weight, or strike the cooking hob with heavy objects.

Never use two burners or heat sources to heat one single receptacle.

Avoid using griddles and earthenware pots etc. at maximum heat for a long time.

DO

Always use receptacles that are suitable for each burner, so as to avoid wasting gas and discolouring the receptacles.

Always place the lid on the receptacles.

Only use pots, saucepans and frying pans with thick, flat bottoms.

Always place the receptacle right over the burner, not to one side.

Place the receptacle on top of the pan support. Make sure that the pan supports and burner covers are in their correct positions before using the appliance.

Handle receptacles with care when they are on the cooking hob.

Only use one receptacle per burner. Use the additional cradle support on the double flame burner.

Never use detergent powder, oven-cleaning sprays or abrasive sponges, as they may scratch the glass.

Never use sharp objects such as metal scourers or knives to remove the hardened remains of food from the surface. Never use a knife, scraper or similar to clean the area where the glass meets the trim of the burners or the metal trim edging.

Grains of sand that may come from cleaning fruits and vegetables will scratch the glass surface.

Clean the surface of the heating element once it has cooled down, and every time you use it. Even small patches of food or dirt will burn when you switch the plate on again.

To keep the burners and pan supports clean, you must clean them periodically by placing them in soapy weather and brushing and with a non-metallic brush to ensure that the holes and grooves are perfectly clean, and can provide a perfect flame. Always dry the burner covers and the pan supports if they have become wet.

Always use a special flat scraper for glass, taking special care not to scrape near the trim of the gas burners.

After cleaning and drying the burners, make sure the burner covers are correctly placed on the burner's flame diffuser.

Remove any boiled over food immediately using the glass scraper. This applies in particular to melted foodstuffs, sugas, and foodstuffs with high sugar contents.

WARNING:

Proceed with caution when removing the pan supports to avoid damaging the pivots they fit onto. After washing the pan supports, dry them completely before cooking with them again. Drops of water or damp patches on the surfaces when you begin cooking may cause deterioration of the enamel.

When you are cleaning the pan supports, take care with the rubber rests, as they could come off and the pan support could scratch the glass or the profile next time you use it.

Home troubleshooting

You do not always need to call the technical assistance service. Very often, you can solve the problem on your own. The following table contains a few pieces of advice.

Important note:

Only personnel authorised by our Technical Services Department should carry out work on the functional gas and electrical system.
