Frequently Asked Questions - Bellissimo TB95GWSS-3 Technika

How do I light the burners on my Technika Bellissimo TB95GWSS-3?

Press and hold the control knob fully down, then rotate it anti-clockwise to the high flame position. The ignition is automatic. After the flame lights, keep the knob pressed for about 10 seconds to heat the thermocouple and activate the safety valve.

What should I do if a burner does not light?

Check that the burner cap and head are correctly positioned and clean. Ensure the electrode and thermocouple are clean. If using matches during a power failure, wait 5 minutes for gas to dissipate before retrying. If the problem persists, contact Technika Service at 1800 333 244.

Can I convert the hob from Natural Gas to LPG?

Yes, the hob is suitable for both Natural Gas and Universal LPG. A Gas Conversion Kit is available from Technika. Contact their service center to ensure proper conversion by authorized personnel.

What pan sizes should I use on each burner?

For best efficiency, use flat-bottomed pans. Recommended diameters: Auxiliary burner 80-160 mm, Semi-Rapid 120-200 mm, Rapid 180-220 mm, Wok 220-260 mm. Always turn the flame down once liquid boils to save gas.

How do I clean the stainless steel hob?

Use a soft cloth with lukewarm water and mild liquid detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, steel wool, or bleach. For stubborn dirt, use a specific stainless steel cleaner. Dry thoroughly to prevent water marks. Do not steam clean.

Why does the flame go out after lighting?

This is likely due to the thermocouple not being heated enough. After lighting, keep the knob pressed for about 10 seconds until the thermocouple activates. Also ensure the burner cap is correctly seated and the flame ports are clean.

What are the minimum clearances required above the hob?

Wall cabinets or extractor hoods must be at least 650 mm above the hob. Adjoining wall surfaces within 200 mm of the burner edge must be non-combustible for 150 mm height.

How do I install the hob into a kitchen bench?

Installation must be done by an authorized person. Cut the opening to the specified dimensions, apply the gasket provided, insert the hob, and secure using the supplied brackets and screws. Ensure ventilation per AS5601 and gas/electrical connections are correct.

What should I do if a burner flame is yellow or sooty?

Yellow tipping or sooting indicates incomplete combustion. Check that the burner cap and head are clean and properly aligned. Ensure the gas type matches the injectors. If the issue continues, contact Technika Service for inspection.

Use and Care

To light the burners

To light the burner, press the control knob fully down and hold the knob down before rotating anti-clockwise to the High Flame position. The ignition device is integrated into the control knob and is automatically activated by pushing down on the control knob.

After lighting the flame, keep the knob pressed for about 10 seconds: this time is necessary to heat up the thermocouple (Fig.1-D) and activate the safety valve, which would otherwise cut off the gas flow. This step only applies where flame failure device is fitted.

In the instance of a power failure, place a lit match near the burner and proceed as described above. If the flame does not light after the first attempt, wait 5 minutes for the gas to dissipate before attempting to re-light the burner.

Once lit, check that the flame is even and turn the control knob to adjust the flame as required. If the flame is uneven, check that the 'burner head/skirt' and 'burner cap' are correctly positioned. To turn off the flame, turn the control knob clockwise to the off position (● symbol). Before removing pots or pans from the burners, always turn off the flame.

For correct use of the hob

For lower gas consumption and better efficiency, use only flat-bottomed pans of dimensions suitable for the burners, as shown in the table below. Also, as soon as a liquid comes to the boil take care to turn the flame down to a level that will just keep it boiling.

Burner Minimum diameter Maximum diameter

Large(rapid) 180mm 220mm

Medium(semi-rapid) 120mm 200mm

Small(Auxiliary) 80mm 160mm

Triple Flame (Wok) 220mm 260mm

The pan supports get hot during normal usage, take care when operating the control knobs close to the pan supports.

During cooking processes involving fats or oils, watch your foods carefully because these substances may catch fire if overheated.

Use and Care

Cleaning and maintenance

Before cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the electrical mains, make sure all burners are 'off' and allow the hotplate to cool down.

General cleaning

Wash enameled parts with lukewarm water and detergent: do not use abrasive products which might damage them. Wash the burner caps and head/skirts often with hot water and detergent, taking care to remove all deposits. Ensure the burner ports in the head/skirts are clear and are not blocked by water or detergent. The hob pan stands can also be washed in a dishwasher. For stubborn dirt, use ordinary non-abrasive detergents or specific commercial products. We strongly advise not to use scouring pads, steel wool or acids for cleaning. Do not steam clean this appliance.

Stainless steel hob

Clean the hob regularly with a moistened soft cloth, lukewarm water and a little liquid detergent. If the hob gets very dirty, use specific commercial products for Stainless Steel. Do not use the following products:

• Abrasive or harsh household detergents or bleaches
• Soaped scouring pads which are not suitable for non-stick utensils
  • Steel wool scouring pads
  • Stain removers for baths or sinks

Ignition plug

Automatic burner ignition is provided by a ceramic 'plug' and a metal electrode (E in fig.1). Periodically clean these parts of the hob thoroughly. In addition, to avoid ignition difficulties, check that the cavities in the burner are not obstructed. To remove deposits from the burner cavities, remove the burner caps (see images right). After cleaning, put the burner heads and caps back together and return them correctly to their position. After washing, replace the pan supports, checking that they are correctly positioned.
