4. Know your appliance

All drawings relating to the Foster cooker hobs manufactured today, are at the end of this manual, Gas cooker hobs summary [Page 182].

We ask that you recognise the drawing of the cooker hob you have purchased to familiarise with the main technical-functional features.

For research practicality the cooker hobs are distinguished in two macro-families:

  • Traditional built-in cooker hobs: "8 mm edge", "Q4 edge" and "semi-flush edge";
  • Flush built-in cooker hobs: "flush-mount" edge.

Regardless of the type of edge, the first group has a simple traditional built-in hole. The cooker hobs with "flush-mount" edge have a more detailed drawing to enable realisation of the "made to measure" hole, or having a step necessary to house the edge of the cooker hub so it is "flush" with the worktop.

Numbers in correspondence with the burners are present in all drawings. Such numbers identify the type of burner. To know the powers of the burners of the gas cooker hub you purchased, refer to reading the powers table depending on the type of gas used [Page 182].

5. First installation

A constant light of at least 0.5 mm is envisioned between the external dimensions of the stainless steel platform and the internal dimensions of the lowering that must be respected during assembly. The temperatures that develop during use of the cooker hub induce a slight elongation on the stainless steel platform, therefore, the envisioned light enables avoiding any interferences. With regard to the kitchen worktop, the temperatures induced by the cooker hub - whether in the section and on the contact top - are very contained. We recommend assembling the cooker hubs with flush-mount edge on water-repellent materials.

The new burners called "Series III" are assembled on certain cooker hobs. The lock system between cover (B) and flame spreading (A) guarantees perfect positioning and large cleaning ability.

The upper cover (B) of the burners must be placed in opposite seat with the two introductions notches in correspondence of the two cylinders below (C) and tighten clockwise.

The associated burner is indicated near each knob. The appliance is equipped with an electric ignition device. It is sufficient to press the knob and rotate it anti-clockwise to the maximum flame symbol, until it is lit. If it does not ignite within the first 15 seconds, bring the knob on ●chiuso] (closed) and do not try to re-ignite for 60 seconds.

Once it is lit, keep the knob pressed for a few seconds in order for thermocouple to heat up. It is possible that the burner shuts off when the knob is released: this means that the thermocouple was not sufficiently heated. Wait a few seconds and repeat the operation, keeping the knob pressed for a little longer. Once the burner is lit, it is possible to adjust the flame based on need.

After every use of the hob, always verify that the control knobs are in ● [chiuso] (closed) position.

If the burners were to shut off accidentally, after about 20 seconds a safety device intervenes and blocks gas output, even when the tap is open. In this case bring the knob to ● [chiuso] (closed) position and do not try to light the burner for at least 60 seconds.

14.2 Practical recommendations for burner use

Foster 7055 062 - Practical recommendations for burner use - 1

For better burner yield, and minimum gas consumption, it is necessary to use flat and regular bottom pots, equipped with a cover and proportioned to the burner, in order to avoid that the flame goes up their sides (see the “Pots diameter” paragraph [Page 36]).

When boiling, reduce the flame as much as needed to make sure that the liquid does not overflow.

Foster 7055 062 - Practical recommendations for burner use - 3

During cooking, all containers or steak pans, also to avoid burns or damage to the hob, must not exceed the measurements indicated in the paragraph "Pot diameter" [Page 36]). Do not heat empty pots or pans, because they may overheat.

Foster 7055 062 - Practical recommendations for burner use - 4

When using greases or oils, pay careful attention because, when overheating, they may catch on fire. If a pan containing greases or oil catches on fire, do not pour water on it because it may cause burns; extinguish the fire by covering the pan with a wet cloth and disconnect the appliance from the power mains.

14.3 Pot diameter

• Auxiliary burner: from 6 to 14 cm
• Semi-quick burner: from 15 to 20 cm
• Quick burner: from 21 to 26 cm
• Double crown, triple crown, dual burners: from 24 to 28 cm

During operation, the cooker hob generates heat and humidity in the room it is installed in. Make sure that the kitchen is well ventilated. A prolonged used of the appliance with some or all burners may require additional ventilation such as opening a window and/or a greater suction power from the exhaust hood.

15. Cleaning and maintenance

Foster 7055 062 - Cleaning and maintenance - 1

Do not use a steam jet to clean the appliance.

Before any intervention it is necessary to disengage the appliance power supply.

Avoid leaving acid or alkaline (vinegar, lemon juice, salt, tomato juice,...) substances on the steel, grids and other parts of the appliance.

15.1 Cleaning the stainless steel

In order to properly preserve the stainless steel, it is necessary to regularly clean it after each use, once it has cooled down.

15.1.1 Daily ordinary cleaning

In order to clean and preserve stainless steel surfaces, only use specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine based acid substances.

Usage mode: pour the product on a wet cloth and pass it over the surface, carefully rinse and dry using a soft cloth or a deerskin.

15.1.2 Food stains or residue

Foster 7055 062 - Food stains or residue - 1

Absolutely avoid using metal sponges and sharp scrapers to avoid damaging the surfaces. Use normal products for steel, non abrasives, using wood or plastic material tools if needed. Carefully rinse and dry using a soft cloth or a deerskin.

We recommend using Foster Steel Clean to clean the steel; for information on where it can be obtained, contact the after-sales technical assistance centre.

Do not use chemical detergents such as oven sprays or stain removers.

15.2 Cleaning gas components

The grids, caps and flame spreading crowns are removable in order to simplify cleaning: wash then in hot water with non abrasive detergent, making sure that any crud is removed and dry them immediately using a cloth. Re-assemble the caps on their crowns. The cast iron components, like the grids and the burners, must never be washed in dishwashers.

For the ignition glow plugs to work correctly, the thermocouples must always be clean. Frequently check them and, if necessary, clean using a wet cloth and then dry them. Any dry residue must be removed using a wood toothpick or a needle.
