Fig. 2.1a Fig. 2.1b GAS BURNERS Gas flow to the burners is adjusted by turning the knobs illustrated in fig. 2.1a - 2.1b which control the gas valves. Turning the knob so that the indicator line points to the symbols printed on the panel achieves the following functions: ✓ full circle ● = closed valve ✓ symbol or = maximum aperture or flow ✓ symbol = minimum aperture or flow ✓ To reduce the gas flow to minimum, rotate the knob further anti-clockwise to point the indicator towards the small flame symbol. ✓ The maximum aperture position per- mits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas the minimum aperture position allows slower warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of liquids. ✓ Other intermediate operating adjust- ments can be achieved by positioning the indicator between the maximum and minimum aperture positions, and never between the maximum aperture and closed positions. CAUTION: If the burner is accidentally extin- guished, turn the gas off at the control knob and wait at least 1 minute before attempting to relight. CAUTION: Gas hobs produce heat and humidity in the environment in which they are installed. Ensure that the cooking area is well ventilated by opening the natural ven- tilation grilles or by installing an extractor hood connected to an outlet duct. CAUTION: If the hob is used for a prolonged time it may be necessary to provide further ventilation by opening a window or by increasing the suction power of the extractor hood (if fitted). Caution! the cooking hob becomes very hot during operation. Keep children well out of reach.96

LIGHTING GAS BURNERS

Models without electric ignition To light one of the gas burners, hold a flame (e.g. a match) close to the top part of the burner, push in and turn the rela- tive knob (fig. 2.1b) in an anti-clockwise direction (fig. 2.3b), pointing the knob indicator towards the large flame symbol (i.e. max. gas flow). Models fitted with electric spark lighter button On these cooker tops, to light one of the burners you have to push in and turn the relative knob (figs. 2.1b - 2.3b) to the maximum aperture position (large flame symbol ) and press the electric lighter button (fig. 2.2) until the flame has been lit. Adjust the gas valve to the desired posi- tion. Models fitted with electric lighter incorporated into the burner knobs The electric ignition is incorporated in the knobs ( symbol beside the symbol - max. heat/max. gas flow) (fig. 2.1a). To light one of the gas burners, push in and turn the relative knob to the maxi- mum aperture position (large flame sym- bol ) and hold the knob in until the flame has been lit. The sparks produced by the lighter situ- ated inside the relative burner will light the flame. In case of black-out, bring a lighted match close to the burner. In the event that the local gas supply conditions makes it difficult to light the burner in maximum aperture position, try again with the knob in minimum position. Fig. 2.3a Fig. 2.3b Fig. 2.297 Fig. 2.4

On the control panel, near every knob, there is a diagram that indicates which burner is controlled by that knob. The suitable burner must be chosen according to the diameter and the capac- ity used. As an indication, the burners and the pots must be used in the following way: It is important that the diameter of the pots or pans suitably match the heating potential of the burners in order not to jeopardise the efficiency of the burners, bringing about a waste of gas fuel. A small diameter pot or pan placed on a large burner does not necessarily mean that boiling conditions are reached quicker. Only used flat bottomed pans.

LIGHTING GAS BURNERS

FITTED WITH SAFETY VALVE

DEVICE In order to light the burner, you must: 1 – Turn the knob in an anti-clockwise direction up to the maximum apertu- re, push in and hold the knob; In models with the gas lighter incor- porated in the knob, this will light the gas. If there is no mains electrical supply, bring a lighted match close to the burner. For models with push-button lighting only: push the gas-lighter button. In case of black-out, bring a lighted match close to the burner. 2 – Wait about ten seconds after the gas lighting before releasing the knob (starting time for the valve). 3 – Adjust the gas valve to the desired position. If the burner flame should go out for some reason, the safety valve will auto- matically stop the gas flow. To re-light the burner, return the knob to the closed ● position, wait for at least 1 minute and then repeat the lighting pro- cedure. If your local gas supply makes it difficult to light the burner with the knob set to maximum, set the knob to minimum and repeat the operation.98 SPECIAL WOK GRILLE - optional (Fig. 2.5a - 2.5b) This special grille for woks should be placed over the pan-rest for the triple ring burner.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

GENERAL ADVICE ✓ Before you begin cleaning you must ensure that the hob is switched off. It is advisable to clean when the appli- ance is cold and especially when cleaning the enamelled parts. ✓ All enamelled surfaces have to be washed with soapy water or some other non-abrasive product with a sponge and are to be dried preferably with a soft cloth. ✓ Avoid leaving alkaline or acid sub- stances (lemon juice, vinegar etc.) on the surfaces. ENAMELLED PARTS ✓ All the enamelled parts must be cleaned with a sponge and soapy water only or other non-abrasive products. ✓ Dry preferably with a chamois leather. If acid substances such as lemon juice, tomato conserve, vinegar etc. are left on the enamel for a long time they will etch it, making it opaque.

STAINLESS STEEL ELEMENTS

✓ Stainless steel parts must be rinsed with water and dried with a soft and clean cloth or with a chamois leather. ✓ For persistent dirt, use specific non- abrasive products available commer- cially or a little hot vinegar. ✓ Note: regular use could cause dis- colouring around the burners, because of the high flame tempera- ture. CONTROL KNOB ✓ The control knobs may be removed for cleaning but care should be taken not to damage the seal. GAS TAPS ✓ Periodic lubrication of the gas taps must be carried out by specialist personnel only. ✓ In the event of operating faults in the gas taps, call the Service Department.

✓ These parts can be removed and cleaned with appropriate products. ✓ After cleaning, the burners and their flame spreaders must be well dried and correctly replaced. ✓ It is very important to check that the burner flame spreader and the cap have been correctly positioned. Failure to do so can cause serious problems. ✓ In the models with safety device, check that the probe next to each burner is always clean to ensure cor- rect operation of the safety valves. ✓ In appliances with electric ignition keep the electrode clean so that the sparks always strike. ✓ Note: To avoid damage to the elec- tric ignition do not use it when the burners are not in place.100

CORRECT REPLACEMENT OF THE BURNERS

It is very important to check that the burner flame spreader “F” and the cap “C” have been correctly positioned (see figs. 3.1 and 3.2 ). Failure to do so can cause serious problems. In appliances with electric ignition check that the electrode “S” (fig. 3.1) is always clean to ensure trouble-free sparking. In the models with safety device, check that the probe “T” (fig. 3.1) next to each burner is always clean to ensure correct operation of the safety valves. Both the probe and ignition plug must be very carefully cleaned. Fig. 3.2 Fig. 3.1

The triple ring burner must be correctly positioned (see fig. 3.3); the burner rib must be fitted in its housing as shown by the arrow. Then position the cap A and the ring B (fig. 3.4 - 3.5). The burner correctly positioned must not rotate (fig. 3.4).102 IMPORTANT ✓ The appliance should be installed by a QUALIFIED INSTALLATION TECHNICIAN. Failure to comply with this condition will render the guarantee invalid. ✓ The appliance must be installed in compliance with regulations in force in your country and in observation of the manufacturer's instructions. ✓ Always unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operations or repairs.

The appliance must be housed in heat-resistant units.

These tops are designed to be embedded into kitchen fixtures measuring 600 mm in depth.

The walls of the units must not be higher than work top and must be capable of resisting temperatures of 105 °C above room temperature.

Before installing the cooktop, remove the protective film. This cooktop can be built into a working surface 20 to 40 mm thick and 600 mm deep. In order to install the cooker top into the kitchen fixture, a hole with the dimensions shown in figs. 4.2a - 4.2b has to be made, keeping in consideration the following: – within the fixture, between the bottom side of the cooker top and the upper surface of any other appliance or inter- nal shelf there must be a clearance of at least 30 mm; – the cooker top must be kept no less than 100 mm away from any side wall; – the cooker top must be kept at a dis- tance of no less than 50 mm from the rear wall. – there must be a distance of at least 650 mm between the hob and any wall cup- board or extractor hood positioned immediately above (see fig. 4.1) – the coatings of the walls of the unit or appliances near the cooktop must be heat resistant ("Y" protection against heating in compliance with standards EN 60335-2-6).

CABINET WITH DOOR (fig. 4.3) It is recommended that a 30 mm clear- ance be left between the cooker top and the fixture surface beneath it (fig. 4.3).

(fig. 4.4) Each cooktop is supplied with a set of tabs and screws to fasten it on units with a working surface from 2 to 4 cm deep. The kit includes 4 tabs “A” and 4 self- threading screws “B”. ✓ Cut the unit. ✓ Stretch gasket “C” over the edge of the hole made, being careful to overlay the junction edges. ✓ Turn the cooktop over and put tabs “A” into the mountings; only tighten screws “B” a few turns. Make sure that the tabs are mounted correctly as shown in the figure. ✓ Put the cooktop into the hole cut into the unit and position it correctly. ✓ Put tabs “A” into place and tighten screws “B” until the cooktop is completely secured. ✓ Using a sharp tool cut off the part of gasket “C” which protrudes from the cooktop.

The flow of air must come directly from one or more openings made in the out- side walls with a free area of at least 100

If the appliance does not have a no- flame safety device this opening must have an area of at least 200 cm

The openings should be near the floor and preferably on the side opposite the exhaust for combustion products and must be so made that they cannot be blocked from either the outside or the outside. When these openings cannot be made, the necessary air can come from an adjacent room which is ventilated as required, as long as it is not a bedroom or a danger area (in compliance with the current laws in force). In this case, the kitchen door must allow the passage of the air. DISCHARGING PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION Extractor hoods connected directly to the outside must be provided, to allow the products of combustion in the gas appli- ance to be discharged (fig. 4.6). If this is not possible, an electric fan may be used, attached to the external wall or the window; the fan should have a capacity to circulate air at an hourly rate of 3-5 times the total volume of the kitchen (fig. 4.7). The fan can only be installed if the room has suitable vents to allow air to enter, as described under the heading “Choosing suitable surroundings” (in compliance with the current laws in force). Installation technicians must comply to current laws in force concerning ventilation and the evacuation of exhaust gases. Intensive and prolonged use may require extra ventilation, e.g. opening a window, or more efficient ventilation increasing the mechanical suction power if this is fitted.106 GAS SECTION

Cat: II 2L 3B/P Cat: II 2H3+ Cat: II 2E+3+ GAS CONNECTION Connection to the gas main must be per-formed by a qualified technician, in com-pliance with the current laws in force.The cooktop is set up and calibrated towork with the gas indicated on the ratingplate affixed to the appliance and on thisinstruction booklet.The gas supply system must conformto the local regulations in force.To conned the cooktop to the gas mainsor cylinder use a flexible stainless steelhose with continuous wall conforming tolocal regulations. Use gasket F for thecylindrical elbow connection.The flexible metal tubes must be at most2 m long.Attention: If a flexible stainless steelhose is used, it must be so installedthat it cannot come into contact with amovable part of the unit and is notobstructed and so that its wholelength can be inspected.The cooktop connection is made up asfollows:✓ 1 nut “A”✓ union elbow “C”:- cylindrical - for Spain and France- conical - for Holland✓ gaskets “F”✓ conical adapter “G” for Belgium only

ADAPTING THE APPLIANCE

If a different gas from that one indicated on the label is used, you need to adapt the cooktop to this new situation. If the injectors are not supplied they can be obtained from the “Service Centre”. Select the injectors to be replaced according to the table on next page. The nozzle diameters, expressed in hun- dredths of a millimetre, are marked on the body of each injector.

✓ Remove the pan-supports, the burner covers and the knobs; ✓ Using a wrench substitute the injec- tors “J” (Fig. 5.3 - 5.4) with those ones suitable for the type of gas for which it is to be used. The burners are conceived in such a way so as not to require the adjust- ment of the primary air. Fig. 5.2 IMPORTANT ✓ Never attempt to turn the fitting C without having first slackened off the relative lock nut (fig. 5.2). ✓ The seal F (fig. 5.1a - 5.1b - 5.1c) is the element that guarantees the seal in the pipe-ramp connector. It is recommended that it be replaced whenever it shows even the slightest deformation or imper- fection. ✓ After connecting to the mains, check that the couplings are cor- rectly sealed, using soapy solution, but never a naked flame.108 Semirapid (SR) 1,75 0,45 65 94 (Y) Rapid (R) 3,00 0,75 85 121 (F2) Triple-ring (TC) 3,50 1,50 95 138 (F3) TABLE FOR THE CHOICE OF THE INJECTORS

MINIMUM SETTING When switching from one type of gas to another, the minimum flow rate must also be correct: the flame should not go out even when passing suddenly from maximum to minimum flame. To regulate the flame follow the instruc- tions below: – Light the burner. – Set the cock valve to minimum. On gas valves provided with adjust- ment screw in the centre of the shaft (fig. 5.5): – Using a screwdriver with max. diame- ter 3 mm, turn the screw inside the tap until the correct setting is obtained. On gas valves provided with adjust- ment screw on the valve body (fig. 5.6): – Turn the screw “A” to the correct set- ting with a screwdriver. – In the models with ignition incorporat- ed in the knob access to screw “A” is through a hole in the microswitch. For G 30/G 31 gas, tighten the adjust- ment screw completely.

TAPS If one of the gas taps becomes hard to turn, dismantle it, thoroughly clean with petrol and apply special high-tempera- ture grease. Warning! These operations must be performed by a specialised engineer.110 ELECTRICAL SECTION

DETAILS ✓ Connection to the electric power sup- ply must be carried out by a qualified technician and following the appropri- ate safety regulations; ✓ Before carrying out the connection to the power supply, the voltage rating of the appliance (stamped on the appli- ance identification plate) must be checked for correspondence to the available mains supply voltage, and the mains electric wiring should be capable of handling the hob’s power rating (also indicated on the identifica- tion plate); ✓ The hob is supplied without a power supply plug and therefore if you are not connecting directly to the mains, a standardized plug suitable for the load must be fitted. ✓ The power point must be connected to a suitable earth wiring, in conformity to current safety regulations. ✓ It is possible to connect the appliance directly to the mains supply by means of a heavy duty switch with 3 mm mini- mum distance between the contacts. ✓ The power supply cord must not touch against any hot surfaces and must be placed so that its temperature does not exceed 75°C at any point along its length. ✓ After having installed the appliance, the power switch or power plug must always be in a accessible position. N.B. For connections to the mains power supply, never use adapters, reductions or multiple power points as these may overheat and catch fire. In the event that installation should require modifications to the mains sup- ply wiring system or if the power plug is not suitable for the type of power point available, it is recommended that a qual- ified technician be called to carry out substitution. The technician will also have to verify that the cross-section of the electric cables on the power point match the appliance’s power rating. Connection to a good earth wiring system is absolutely essential. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any inconve- nience caused by failure to comply with this rule. IMPORTANT: Installation has to be carried out according to the instructions pro- vided by the manufacturer. Incorrect installation might cause harm and damage to people, ani- mals or objects, for which the man- ufacturer accepts no responsibility. Before carrying out any work on the electrical section of the appli- ance, it must be disconnected from the mains. If the power supply cable is dam- aged it must be substituted by a suitable cable available in the after sales service.111 230 V L1 N(L2)PE Fig. 6.1 Descriptions and illustrations in this booklet are given as simply indicative. The manufacturer reserves the right, considering the characteristics of the models described here, at any time and without notice, to make eventual necessary modifications for their construction or for commercial needs.

SUPPLY CABLE Use the same type of power supply cable. This cable must be connected to the ter- minal block following the diagram in fig.
