Posioning

CLEARANCES REQUIRED WHEN FITTING THE HOB WITH A COOKER HOOD ABOVE

This appliance is to be built into a kitchen unit or 600mm worktop, providing the following minimum distances are allowed:

• The edges of the hob must be a minimum distance of 60mm from a side or rear wall.
• 700mm between the highest point of the hob surface (including the burners) and the underside of any horizontal surface directly above it.
• 400mm between the hob surfaces, providing that the underside of the horizontal surface is in line with the outer edge of the hob. If the underside of the horizontal surface is lower than 400mm , then it must be at least 50mm away from the outer edges of the hob.
• 50mm clearance around the appliance and between the hob surface and any combustible surface.
• You must have a gap of at least 25mm and at most 74mm between the underneath of the appliance and any surface that is below it.

• A minimum disatance of 200mm must be le between the side edges of the hob and any adjacent cabinet or wall.

• The adjacent furniture and all materials used in the installaon must be able to withstand a minimum temperature rise of 85^ above the ambient temperature during operaon.

• An oven must have forced venlaon to install the hob above it.

COMMISSIONING

When the hob has been fully installed it will be necessary to check the minimum ame seng. To do this, follow the procedure below.

• Turn the gas tap to the MAX posion and ignite.
• Set the gas tap to the MIN ame posion then turn the control knob from

to several mes. If the ame is unstable or is exguished follow the procedure below.

Procedure:

Re-ignite the burner and set to Remove the control knob. To adjust, use a thin bladed screwdriver (not supplied) and turn the adjustment screw unl the ame is steady and does not exinguish, when the knob is turned from

to

Repeat this procedure for all burners.

CONVERSION FROM NATURAL GAS TO LPG

Important

The replacement / conversion of the gas hob should only be undertaken by a competent person.

It is important to note that this model is designed for use with natural gas but can be converted for use with butane or propane gas providing the correct injectors are ed and the gas rate is adjusted to suit.

Method

• Ensure that the control knobs are in the posion.
• Cut o the gas supply and disconnect the hob from the mains socket.
• Remove all pan supports, burner caps, crowns and control knobs.
• With a 7mm box spanner (not supplied), unscrew the burner injectors and replace them with the appropriate LPG injectors.

To adjust the gas rate

With a thin bladed screwdriver (not supplied), completely ghten down the by-pass adjustment screw.

OPERATION

Switching On a Burner

To determine which knob controls which burner, check the posion symbol next to the control knob.

1. Press the control knob of the required burner and turn it anticlockwise to the maximum power seng.

2. While the control knob is sll pressed down, sparks will be produced on the burner. The ame will ignite.

3. In case of ignition failure, you can use any type of lighter or ame (cigaree lighter, matches, etc.) and bring it close to the burner. CARE MUST BE TAKEN when using this method.

4. Release the control knob.

5. Turn the control knob to the required seng.

6. Carefully watch foods being fried at a high power seng, which may cause ignition.

7. Always heat fat slowly and watch as it heats.
8. Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
9. Never try to move a pan of hot fat. Wait unl the fat is completely cool.

Risk of deagraon!

If aer 15 seconds the ame does not ignite, switch o the burner and open a nearby window or door to venlate the room. Wait at least 1 minute before trying to switch the burner back on.

If you cannot light the burner even aer several aempts, check the cap and crown are in the correct posion.

1. Burner cap
2. Burner crown
3. Burner plate
4. Ignion sparker
   5.Thermocouple

NOTE: When switching on a burner, aer installaon or a power cut, it is normal for the ignition spark to be acvated automatically.

WARNING: If the burner ames are accidentally blown out, switch o the burner and do not try to relight it for at least 1 minute.

Switching O a Burner

Turn the corresponding control knob clockwise to the posion.

Cooking Pans

Suitable pans

Burner	Minimum pan diameter	Maximum pan diameter
Rapid burner	20 cm	24 cm
Semi-rapid burners	16 cm	18 cm
Auxiliary burner	12 cm	16 cm

Precauons for use

• Use pans which are the right size for each burner (see above table). Do not use small pans on large burners. The ame must not touch the sides of the pans.
• Only use pans with a at base.
• Always posion pans over the centre of the cooking zone, and turn the handles to a safe posion so they cannot be knocked or grabbed.
• Never operate the hob without pans.

• When you do not use the appliance, keep the gas valve o.

• Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated splashes could easily ignite.

• As soon as liquid starts boiling, turn down the ame so that it will keep the liquid simmering.
• If the control knobs are difficult to turn, please contact your local service centre.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Always turn o the gas valve and disconnect the hob from the mains

socket before any cleaning or maintenance operon is carried out.

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is sll warm, as spillage can be removed more easily than if it is le to cool.

Hob top

Regularly clean the hob top using a so cloth well wrung out in warm soapy water. Avoid the use of the following:

household detergent and bleaches;
impregnated pads unsuitable for non-sck saucepans;
- steel-wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.

When cleaning the hob top, make sure that no water ows inside the burner caps, as this may block the injectors.

Pan supports, burner caps and crowns

The pan supports, burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning. Clean them using hot soapy water and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. If the marks are particularly difficult to remove, a well moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caunon.

Aer cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a so cloth and to re-assemble the parts correctly.

Ignion sparker and thermocouple

The holes and grooves must be clean for the ame to ignite properly. If the ignion sparkers are dirty they will not light properly. Clean them regularly using a small non-wire brush. The ignion sparkers must not suer any serious impacts.

The thermocouples are extremely important since they cut gas supply in case a tame goes out during cooking; be sure to keep them clean.

Maintenance

Periodically check the gas connecon pipe. Even if any simple abnormality is felt, inform the technical service to have it changed. We recommend the gas connecon parts to be changed once a year.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the hob is not working properly, please carry out the following checks before calling the technical assistance service.

Problem	Possible soluon
There is no spark when lighng the gas.	Check that the hob is plugged in and the electrical supply is switched on.
	Check the burner caps and crowns have been replaced correctly, e.g. aer cleaning.
The burner ame is not uniform.	Check the holes and grooves on the burners are not blocked.
	Check the burner caps and crowns have been replaced correctly, e.g. aer cleaning.
