USING YOUR APPLIANCE

Each burner is supplied by a tap which can be opened by pressing it and turning it in in a counterclockwise motion. The “ l” point corresponds to closing the tap. Choose the desired burner by using the symbols located near the knobs (e.g.: Rear right burner ). To light a burner, press the electronic starter button by turning the knob to the maximum position . Keep pressing the starter button until the burner ignites. The setting for more moderate flame intensi- ties is between the and the symbol

TIP — If the flame goes out accidentally, reignite normally following the lighting instructions. — The burner’s flames are smaller near the support to protect the support’s enamel. — The noise made by certain burners is related to their high power and to gas combustion; it does not alter cooking quality. — In the event of a power cut, place a lighted match near an open burner.

USING YOUR APPLIANCE

43WARNING — Adjust the ring of flames so that they do not extend beyond the edges of the cookware (Fig. 01). — Do not use cookware with a con- cave or convex bottom (Fig. 02). — Do not use cookware that partially covers the knobs (Fig. 03). — Do not leave a gas burner operating with empty cookware.

Tip Keep natural ventilation outlets in your home open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical ventilation hood). Intensive, prolonged use of the appliance may require additional ventilation; you can, for example, open a window or pro- vide more effective ventilation or increase power to the mechanical ventilation, if you have it (a minimum air flow of 2 m

per kW of gas power is required). Example: 60 cm - Four gas burners Total power: 1.5 + 2.25 + 3.1 + 0.85 =

• Which burner should you use depending on your cookware? Diameter of the cookware 18 to 28 cm 16 to 28 cm 12 to 24 cm Burner Super fast High-speed Semi-fast Auxiliary Use Frying - Boiling Searing foods Sauces - Reheating Gentle simmer

USING YOUR APPLIANCE

(depending on model) Use cookware with flat bottoms that perfectly hug the surface of the burner: — in stainless steel with a thick, tri metal or “sandwich” bottom”, — in aluminium with a thick (smooth) bottom, — in enamelled steel.

POWERING ON THE ELEC-

TRIC PLATE (depending on the model) Position the knob on the marking that cor- responds to the desired cooking method (Fig. 01) (see cooking guide at the end of this guide). The cooking zone’s power indi- cator lights up. Upon first use, allow the plate to heat up with no cookware at maximum power for three minutes to harden the coating. TIP — Use cookware of an appropriate size: the diameter of the bottom should be greater than or equal to the diameter of the electric cooking zone (Fig. 02). — When cooking is nearly complete, turn the knob to the “O” off position to take advantage of the heat accumulated in the plate. — Use a lid on your cookware as often as possible to reduce the loss of heat by evaporation. WARNING — Do not operate an electric cooking zone without cookware (except dur- ing initial use) or with an empty pot. — The electric plate will remain hot for a certain time after the knob has been turned to the “O” position. Do not touch this zone because there is a risk of burning.

MAINTAINING YOUR APPLIANCE

WHAT TO DO ? If the spark igniters become dirty, clean them using a small, stiff-bristled brush (non-metallic). The gas injector is located in the centre of the burner in the form of a crucible. Be careful not to clog it during cleaning, as this will reduce the performance of your hob. In the event of obstruction, use a safety pin to unclog the injector. If tough stains occur, use a non-abra- sive cream, then rinse with clean water. Carefully wipe each part of the burner before using your hob again. The heating plate is protected by a black coating, so you should avoid using any abrasive products. After each use, wipe it with a thick towel. If the plate shows signs of rusting, remove the rust (with an emery cloth, for example) and restore the black coating with a commercially available high-temperature restorative product. To clean the hob’s enamel, use a scour- ing cream. Polish it with a dry cloth. Do not allow acidic liquids such as lemon juice, vinegar, etc. to remain in contact with the enamel. To clean the hob’s stainless steel, use a sponge and soapy water or a commer- cially available special stainless steel product. MAINTENANCE...
