• For the first ignition after installation, push the lever, set it to the high flame position and hold it for 5 seconds to bleed the air from the gas pipe to the burner. Then release the lever.
• Open the valve by turning the lever on the left until it is in the high flame position (drawing shown on the lever).
• Activate the spark ignition and then push the lever in this position to obtain full burner ignition.
• Maintain pressure on the lever for 5 to 10 seconds to engage the thermocouple safety system.
• Then release the lever and allow the burner to heat the cooking plate to the appropriate temperature.
• Your appliance is ready to be used.

COMMENTS

The first time it is used, you may see some smoke and smell some odours coming from the appliance.

Featuring an “Automatic control system”, this gas plancha is for precision cooking and maximum response to temperature variations. Its design guarantees even heat distribution over the entire surface as well as a 30% reduction in energy consumption.

AUTOMATIC

CONTROL SYSTEM®

The appliance features a thermostat for controlling the cooking temperature. During preheating, the burners emit high flames until the set temperature is reached. Once the set temperature is reached, the flames are regulated automatically to maintain the same temperature (variation from high to low flame, and vice versa). Therefore the plancha maintains this temperature by itself throughout the cooking process.

COOKING

Preheat the plancha to the cooking temperature you require. If necessary, apply oil evenly using a brush. Place the food on the plate. With practice you will get to know the temperatures that are best suited to the foods being cooked, according to their thickness, texture and your taste. The times indicated below are for information only.

	Food	Cooking time
FISH AND SEAFOOD	Fish kebab	15 min
	Prawns	15 min
	Scallops	15 min
	Salmon	15 min
	Monkfish or cod cheek	15 min
	Coquilles St Jacques	15 min
	Cuttlefish, squid or octopus	15 min
MEAT AND POULTRY	Rare T-bone steak	about 5 min on each side
	Medium T-bone steak	about 15 min on each side
	Rare steak	about 1 min on each side
	Medium steak	about 3 min on each side
	Shredded pork or veal	20 min
	Shredded rabbit or chicken	30 min
	Duck fillets	1 to 3 min on each side
	Duck breasts	10 min on the skin side, then 5 min on the other side
	Beef kebabs	5 to 10 min
	Lamb chops or kebabs	5 to 10 min
VEGETABLES	Mushrooms/Onions/Courgettes/Carrots/Tomatoes/Vegetable kebabs/Peppers, etc.	10 to 15 min
FRUIT	Bananas/Apples/Pears/Peaches/Oranges/Pineapple, etc.	1 to 3 min

ADVICE

To avoid making deep scratches on the plate, do not cut your food directly on it.

Do not leave kitchen utensils on the plancha, such as cutlery, wooden spoons, plastic utensils, etc.

Do not cook at too high a temperature as this may char the plate and make it difficult to clean.

The plancha can be used for keeping food warm at the end of cooking by adjusting the lever to the low flame.

For all of our recommendations for use and recipes, go to our website at www.krampouz.com.

SWITCHING OFF THE PLANCHA

• After use, switch off your appliance by placing the lever or levers vertically to the large full circle position.
• Close the valve on the gas cylinder
• Disconnect the supply hose from the appliance and store it in a dry, well-ventilated place. The gas cylinder must also be stored in a dry, well-ventilated place, away from any source of heat.

Adjustments

When changing the type of gas, always change the injectors (see instructions in the table on page 16).

CHANGING THE INJECTORS

On an installed appliance, before changing the injectors and making the new adjustments, close the valve on the supply pipe or gas cylinder.

Perform the following operations:

- Close the valve on the supply pipe or gas cylinder.

GGCIR2

• Turn the appliance, remove the galvanised steel plate and unscrew both screws on the injector support (see figure 2 page 66-67)
• Remove the injector from the burner hole.
• Unscrew the injector with a size 7 wrench, then take the transformation bag (injector bag).

• Change the injector and its seal, as indicated in the table for the different supply types (table on page 27, injector marking and air collar opening).

• Reposition the injector in the burner hole and tighten both injector support screws.

• Clean and tighten the appliance's protection. We recommend that you record the new configuration on the appliance's information plate and delete the old one.
• Place the changed injector in the conversion bag and store it carefully. Then refer to the start-up procedure.

GGCIO2

- Turn the appliance, and remove the galvanised steel plate.

- Push the burner away from the valve.

- Unscrew the injector with a size 10 wrench and its bracket with a size 13 wrench. Then take the conversion set (set of injectors), as shown in the figure below). (see figure 3 on page 66-67)

- Change the injector and its seal, as per the instructions in the correspondence table of the different types of supply (table on page 27).

- Return the burner to its initial position and then tighten the two screws to lock the burner.

- Clean and tighten the appliance's protection. We recommend that you record the new configuration on the appliance's information plate and delete the old one.

- Place the changed injector in the conversion bag and store it carefully. Then refer to the start-up procedure.

IDLE FLAME SETTING

When the appliances are set to Butane/Propane gas, the idle screw is turned as far to the right as possible.

When switching from Butane/Propane gas to natural gas, loosen this screw until you obtain a good idle flame setting (see the table on page 27). The idle flame is set properly when the flame is not extinguished when passing quickly from the maximum to the minimum positions.

Set the idle flame with the cooking plate installed and fastened:

1. Move the lever, pulling it towards you, and remove the ring.
2. Use a small screwdriver to access the adjustment screw located on the periphery of the thermostat axis. Turn the idle screw through one anticlockwise revolution and refit the lever (see figure 4 on page 68).
3. Switch the plancha on in the high flame position for 5 minutes
4. Set the lever to the low flame position
5. While looking at the flame under the plate, loosen to increase the idle flame and tighten to reduce it (see table page 16).
6. Replace the lever and the ring.

SETTING THE AIR COLLAR

GGCIR2

When the appliances are set for Butane/Propane, the air collar is set to 5 mm opening for pressures of 28-30 mbars (butane) and 37 mbars (propane) or 5 mm for 50 mbars (butane/propane).

When switching from Butane/Propane gas to natural gas, the opening of the air collar must be modified. To do this, loosen the screw on the air collar using a screwdriver and then set the opening to 3 mm. Once set, tighten the screw (see figure 5 on page 69).

GGCIO2

When the appliances are set to Butane/Propane gas, the air collar is opened 4 mm.

When switching from Butane/Propane gas to natural gas, the opening of the air collar must be modified. To do this, loosen the air collar screw with a screwdriver and then set the opening at 1 mm (see figure on 5 page 69). Once set, tighten the screw.

SETTING THE SPARK IGNITER AND SAFETY THERMOCOUPLE

To ensure that the burner ignites properly, the spark igniter must always be positioned 5 mm from the burner.

To ensure that the thermocouple safety system works properly, the end must be in the flame and always positioned 2 mm from the burner (see figures 6 and 7 on pages 70 and 71).

Maintenance and Cleaning

THE PLATE

Upon delivery, the ferritic stainless steel plate of the plancha will have a matt appearance. Scratches and black spots will soon appear with normal use of the appliance. All of these scratches and spots will soon blend and the plate will have a patinated, brushed appearance which will not change further over time. This will not affect cooking in any way.

To clean the plancha switch it off and close the gas valve. It is easier if the plancha is still lukewarm. Do not burn yourself.

Use a rigid spatula to remove the bulk of the juices adhering to the cooking plate by pushing them towards the cooking waste collector.

Then thoroughly moisten the cooking plate to water down the remaining juices (using a wet sponge or dropping ice cubes onto it). Leave for a few minutes.

Use the rigid spatula to remove the remaining watered down juices by pushing them towards the cooking waste collector.

Finish cleaning with an abrasive and then a soft sponge.

Pour white vinegar onto the plate to remove residual odours and flavours.

After cooking salty preparations, the cooking plate must be cleaned promptly (otherwise the salt will corrode the plate). Do not use chlorinated products as these may also cause corrosion.

FRAME

The stainless steel frame should be cleaned with a slightly moist sponge.

This collects the cooking waste. It must be handled once the appliance is cool, and then emptied and cleaned before the next use.

BURNER(S)

Periodically check the condition of the flame holes on the burners and the air collar(s), which may become obstructed by insect nests, cobwebs or dirt.

If the flame holes are clogged, brush the branches with a hard bristle brush. To clean the air collar(s), we do NOT recommend using metal objects, as they are likely to alter the technical specifications of the burner(s).

We therefore recommend that you blow into the air collar. The burner and air collar may be accessed by removing the appliance's metal plate (see figures 2 and 3 p 66-67).

ELECTRONIC IGNITION

It is supplied with a LR6 battery (1.5 Volts). To change the battery, refer to the diagram below.
