This appliance has been designed for non-professional, i.e. domestic, use.

The following information is intended for qualified and competant persons only who will ensure that your appliance is installed correctly. All current legislation concerning the in- stallation of Gas appliances must be observed by the installer*

• For the U.K. only - By law, the gas installation/commissioning must be carried out by a «Corgi», registered installer. This appliance must be installed in accordance with applicable regulations and should only beused in well-ventilated locations. Before using this appliance carefully study the instruction book. Suitable location A gas-powered cooking appliance produces heat and humidity in the area in which it is installed. For this reason you should ensure good ventilation either by keeping all natu- ral air passages open or by installing an extractor hood with an exhaust flue. Intensive and prolonged use of the appliance may require extra ventilation, such the opening of a window or an increase in speed of the electric fan, if you have one. If a hood cannot be installed, an electric fan should be fitted to an outside wall or win- dow as long there are air vents in the area. The electric fan should be able to carry out a complete change of air in the kitchen 3-5 times every hour. The installer should follow the relavant national standards. If a hob of 60 cm is fitted above an oven which is not equipped with fan cooling systemit is recommended that openings are created within the built in furniture to ensure cor-rect air circulation.The size of these openings must be at least 300 cm and placed as shown in fig. 4.When a 75 cm hob is fitted over a built in oven, the latter must be fan cooled.FIG. 460 Cm 240 Cm 120 Cm 180 Cm

When the jets have been changed it is necessary to set the correct air gap by keepingto the setting “X” as shown in the table “ gas consumption” fig 7. Warning the value of ‘X ‘ setting varies in relation to the size of gas burner and type of gas chosen. A good flame must be of medium length (fig.8B), excessive air will cause the flame to be short and with sharp colour (fig.8C): in this case it is necessary to extend out the tu-be for the air setting from the burner body, if there is insufficient air the flame will ap-pear weak and long (fig. 8A): in this case push the tube of the air setting back into the burner body. To adjust the air setting tube loosen the retaining screw. Once the air is correctly set secure the screw over the tube ( fig. 7).

ADAPTING THE HOB TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS To adapt the Hob for use with different types of gas, carry out the following instructions:— remove the grids and burners— insert the hexagonal spanner (supplied) into the burner support (Fig. 6) — unscrew the injector and replace it with one suitable for the gas to be used (seeTable of gas consumption)— carry out regulation of the burner. 1/2 GAS CONICAL A) As illustrated, as-semble parts in se-quence: A) fixed pipe B) washer C) Elbow fitting withtapered thred connection2) Tighten the jointswith the Spanners, remembering to twistthe pipes into position.3) Attach fitting C tomains gas supply us-ing rigid copper pipeor flexible steel pipe.

USER INSTRUCTIONS This appliance must only be used for the purpose for which it is intended, domestic cooking, and any other use will be considered improper and could therefore be danger- ous. The Manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage or loss resulting from improper use.

USING THE GAS BURNER

To ignite the burners, place a lighted taper close to the burner, press in and turn the control knob anti-clockwise. If the burners have not been used for a couple of days, wait for a few seconds before lighting the burner, this will allow any air present in the pipes to escape. For appliances fitted with electronic ignition carry out the following:

• push in and turn the knob anticlockwise to the

• ignite the burner by pressing the sparker button. For hobs fitted with automatic ignition simply push in and turn the knob to the

symbol. The ignition system will continue to generate sparks as long as the gas tap is beingpressed. If the burner is not ignited within 5 seconds, turn the knob to the 0 position and repeat the operation. For models fitted with a safety tap (which cuts-off the flow of gas if the flame is acci- dentally extinguished) the burners are ignited ad described above, but care must be taken to keep the knob pressed in for 5 or 6 seconds after the flame is ignited. ATTENTION: Prior to switching on the gas hob ensure that the burners and bur-ner caps are correctly placed within their position. GENERAL ADVICE For the best results, the flat-bottomed pans size should match the gas burner size as follows. See fig. pag. 38-39. For smaller containers the gas burner should be regulated so that the flame does not overlap the base of the pan. Vessels with concave or convex base should not be used.

WARNING: If a burner is accidentally extinguehed, turn the knob to the off posi-

tion and do not attempt to re-ignite if for at least 1 minute. To protect the glass lid from damage and in the interests of safety, the burners/plates must be turned off and the burner/pan support/plate area must be cool before closing the lid down.
