USE - THE GAS BURNER THE VERY FAST BURNER has a power rating of 3,5 kW : Use the large burner for bringing to the boil, for cooking large quantities, and generally for all foods requiring rapid cooking. THE SEMI-FAST BURNER has a power rating of 1,75 kW : It is ideal for stewing, sauces and slow cooking. The pan support is working as Mijorose when the burner set on low rate. . on the slow setting, the flame only comes into contact with the cast iron burner cap. This is ideal for slow cooking, as the heat is evenly distributed under the pan and food doesn't dry out or stick to the bottom of the pan. . on the high position, the flame heat directly the pan allowing all cookings on quick gas.

For a proper use of the burners, choose pans which match the dimensions given below :

Burner 1,75 kW Ø 16 cm

SOME TIPS.... • Pans with curved, ridged or warped bottoms are not recommended. • Centre the pan on the "pan support". • Do not place the same pan on two burners. • Avoid boiling food too intensely. Food is not cooked any more quickly this way. In fact, it is subjected to severe agitation, which may cause the food to lose some of its flavour. • To save gas, make sure that the flames do not overlap the bottom of the pan. • Do not use the gas burner with an empty pan.

RECOMMENDATIONS : when the burners are not in service, the general gas supply tap should always be turned off.

USE - THE GAS BURNER Each burner is contolled by a tap with progressive settings allowing : * a wider choice of settings from the maximum position to the lowest and most precise one, * easier flame regulation according to the pan diameter, * no risk of cutting off the flame or switching off when the flame is turned down quickly. Each burner is fitted with : . an automatic ignition, and, . a thermocouple safety device allowing the automatic cut-off of the gas in case the flame dies out accidentally.

USE : • Turn on the gas tap, • A symbol next to each control knob indicates which burner is lit. • Press and turn the knob to position "+" keeping it pressed to produce sparks which in turn ignite the burner. Keep the pressure on the control knob a few seconds to permit the releasing of the safety device. • Set the flame according to your cooking requirements. Intermediate positions are available between the "+" and "-" settings on the control knob. • To turn the flame out, turn the control knob back to stop position.

Please note : . if there is a power cut, the burner can be ignited by pressing in and turning the knob to position "+" and holding a naked flame to the burner. . when the flames goes off accidentally, you simply process a new ignition according to the instructions mentionned above.

INDUCTION Use procedure An electronic generator powers a coil located inside the appliance. This coil creates a magnetic field, so that when the pan is placed on the hob, it is permeated by the induction currents. These currents make the pan into a real heat transmitter, while the glass ceramic hob remains cold. This system is designed for use with magnetic-bottomed pans. Put simply, induction technology has two main advantages : . as heat is emitted only by the pan, heat is maintained at its maximum level and cooking takes place without any heat loss. . There is no thermal inertia, as cooking automatically starts when the pan is placed on the hob and stops when it is removed. A HIGH SAFETY APPLIANCE .... If your hob is correctly installed and used, the safety devices will rarely be needed. • Ventilation fan : to protect and cool the supply and control components. It has two speeds, operating automatically. The fan works even if the plates are off and this till the electronic system has enough cooled down. • Safety "Transistor" : a probe checks permanently the temperature of the electronic components. If the heat is increasing excessively, it automatically decreases the power of the plates then cuts them down (the display for power level is flashing) as far as the temperature of the components meets with the standard again, the hob starts working. • Safety "Empty pan" : a proble is placed under each heating area. It will immediately detect a wrong temperature for the empty pan, or the glass ceramic. • Safety "Detection" : the presence detector allows the working and so the heating. A small object (eg a spoon, knife or ring) placed on the heating area will not be considered as a pan and therefore the hob will not come on. • Safety "Boiling over and splashing : if any boiling over and splashing occur, the hob will stop. If a big spill or object covers at least two buttons, for at least 10 seconds, clean up the spill or remove the object, the hob is not operating.

• PAN DETECTOR FOR INDUCTION ZONE The pan detector is only fitted to the induction zones. When the hob is operating, the pan detector provides the advantage of automatically stopping or starting the heat of the cooking zone in contact with or on removal of the pan. If therefore offers energy savings. If the cooking zone is used with a suitable pan* : the display shows the heat level or if the Booster function is operating. * The induction needs pans compatibles so fitted with magnetic-bottomed, see table on the next page. If the cooking zone is used without a pan or with an unsuitable pan : the display shows . The zone does not start. If no pan is detected after 10 minutes, the starting operation is cancelled. To stop the cooking zone, you must stop the hob normally, you cannot just remove the pan. IMPORTANT: the pan detector does not work as the hob on/off button.

CHOOSING UTENSILS You should use high quality utensils to obtain good cooking results:

• Use high quality utensils with flat and thick bottoms: a very flat bottom eliminates hot spots causing food to stick, and the thickness of the metal gives excellent heat distribution. • Make sure that utensil bottoms are dry: when you fill the container or use a pan straight out of the fridge, for example, make sure that it is dry; this check will stop any dirt getting on the cooking surface. • Use pans big enough to fully cover the heat source: it is best to make sure that the bottom is at least as large as the cooking zone. If the bottom is slightly larger, the energy is used most efficiently.

The following information will help you select the pans best adapted to obtain good results.

Induction zone M ar k o n kitchen utensils

On the label, check the mark which shows if the pan is compatible with induction.

Use magnetic pans (enamelled iron sheet, cast-iron ferritic stainless steel) apply a magnet on the bottom of the pan (it must stick). Stainless steel

Non detectable Excepted stainless steel ferromagnetic.

Good performance Warning : can scratch the surface.

Flat, thick and smooth bottom recommended.

THE DIFFERENT POSITIONS The different positions correspond to the following power ratings : INDUCTION Positions

1800 W BOOSTER Ø 210 BOOSTER Ø 145

For increased safety, the cooking zones cut off automatically if they are left on too long. The cut off depends on the heat level used. NOTE: The induction hob works with a generator wich supplies simultaneously the 2 plates :

The area takes in charge a maximum power of 3700 W. Consequently, when the Booster function is on and the second plate has reached a power level of 12 or 11 the latest is automatically decreased to the level 9 and this decrease is shown by a flashing display for information. Warning : as indicated on the powers table, the Booster works during 10 minutes, after this time, it stops and the plate starts heating again at the setting 12, the power of the generator being decreased, the power level of the second plate comes back to its previous setting.

CLEANING THE HOB • It is important to wait for the ceramic hob surface to cool completely before cleaning it. • Only use special products for cleaning ceramic surfaces, cream and scraper. You can find them easily in the shops. • Avoid spills; messes that fall onto the cooking surface burn fast and are then harder to clean off. • It is recommended to keep away from the cooking surface anything likely to melt like plastic articles, sugar or products with a high sugar content.

THE GAS BURNERS Burner cap Burner body

• Burner caps and pan supports : Just lift them off and clean with a damp, slightly soapy

sponge. Do not immerse them in cold water immediately after use to avoid cracking the enamel from the thermal shock. The use of abrasive cleansers is not recommended as they scratch and dull the enamel. • The burner head : the burner cap is simply placed on the burner head. If the holes are clogged, brush the caps using soapy water and dry with a clean cloth. Each burner is simply layed on a flange slightly bossed to drain the overflows far from the flame and the hot areas which make cleaning easier. • After cleaning of each element, it is important to wipe them correctly and care of fitting them rightly in their initial position. The re-fitting must be perfect because a bad positioning can bring serious anomalies in the combustion. Warning : be careful, not to let any water get into the burners.

• For thorough cleaning, the control knobs can be removed by pulling them upwards. Only clean with soapy water and dry well before replacing them. If you have to take the knobs off for a full cleaning, take care not to let water go into the open zone.

CLEANING THE CERAMIC HOB CLEANING: . Sprinkle a few drops of special ceramic surface cleaner. . Rub, working hard on any stained parts, using slightly damp soft cloth or kitchen roll. . Rinse if necessary. . Wipe with dry soft cloth or kitchen roll until the surface is clean. If stains remain after this usual cleaning: . Sprinkle a few more drops of special cleaner. . Use a scraper, keeping it at an angle of 30° to the hob, until the difficult marks go. Rinse if necessary. . Wipe with dry soft cloth or kitchen roll until the surface is clean. . Repeat if necessary.

ADVICE: Regular cleaning leaves an protective layer that is essential to prevent scratches and wear. Make sure that the surface is clean before using the hob again. To remove traces of water and scale, use a few drops of white vinegar or lemon juice. Rinse and dry off using absorbent paper, and then apply a few drops of special cleaner and wipe. Ceramic glass withstands the rubbing of flat-bottomed cooking utensils, but it is nevertheless advisable to lift them before moving them.

NOTE: . Avoid using a sponge with too much water. . Never use a steel tool like a knife or screwdriver. . A razor blade scraper cannot damage the surface if it is used at an angle of 30°. . Do not leave the razor blade scraper within the reach of children. . Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring powder. . Do not use a steam cleaner for cleaning operations. . Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.

PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS The cooking zones do not simmer or only fry gently.
