The flame level indicators located right above the symbols and illuminate. 3. Within about 3 seconds, touch the Increasing or Decreasing Touch Control to light the burner.
- If touch control is selected, the burner automatically lights at medium flame level (three flame level indicators illuminate). 4. To adjust the burner flame level, use the Increasing or Decreasing Touch Control. The residual heat indicator lights up immediately after the burner is lit. This means that the cooking zone is getting hot: the indicator remains on until the pan support and the burner have cooled down. How to turn off a burner 1.
After 60 seconds, you can remove the safety device on the burner by touching both the Increasing Controls and the Decreasing Control at the same time. Then, follow the instructions given in the paragraph “How to light a burner”. Caution! Check that the burner cap and crown are correctly positioned (see diagram). If the ignition problem persists, refer to chapter “Something not working”. Never use a manual spark gas-lighter if the burner ignition device does not work correctly. If necessary, use a match.
How to turn off all the burners at once In case of unexpected safety hazard (spilling of liquids, children hazard, etc.), you can immediately turn off all the hob burners at once by touching the main ON/OFF Control . Burner Safety Cut-off Function If you leave one or more burners lit and unattended for a long time (that is, you don’t touch any control for at least 4 hours), each lit burner is automatically turned off and a safety device is set on it.

Safety and energy-saving advice For a correct use of the hob To ensure maximum burner efficiency and lower gas consumption, you should only use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table). If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the recommended size, the flame will spread beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to overheat. Pots must never be placed onto the control zones. Always turn the flame down or off before removing pots from the burners.

Cleaning and maintenance Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the hob from the electricity supply and wait until it has cooled down. This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or with a steam cleaning machine. The Hob Top Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a little washing up liquid has been added.
Pan Supports The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If washing them by hand, take care when drying them as the enamelling process occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary, remove stubborn stains using a paste cleaner. The pan supports can be removed from the hob to enable better cleaning. To keep the pan supports in the correct position, they are fixed on metal pins located in the back of the hob. After cleaning the hob, ensure the pan supports are properly placed as shown in the diagram.

Provision for ventilation Detailed recommendations are contained in the following British Standards Codes Of Practice: B.S. 6172/ B.S.
Location The hob may be located in a kitchen, a kitchen/ diner or bed sitting room, but not in a bathroom or shower room. Before making the cut out in the worktop ensure that the edges of the hob that are to be near either a side or rear wall have a minimum distance of 55 mm. between the edge of the hob and the wall. The minimum distance combustible material can be fitted above the hob is 400 mm. If it is fitted below 400 mm. a space of 50 mm. must be allowed from the edges of the hob.
Connection IMPORTANT: This hob must be installed by a competent person to the relevant Gas Standards. Any gas installation must be carried out by a competent person. The manufacturer will not accept liability, should the above instructions or any of the other safety instructions incorporated in this book be ignored.
Electrical connections Any electrical work required to install this hob should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person, in accordance with the current regulations. THIS HOB MUST BE EARTHED. The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety measures not be observed. This hob is designed to be connected to a 230 V 50 Hz AC electrical supply. Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that indicated on the hob rating plate.
Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray strands of wire present and the cable clamp must be secure over the outer sheath. A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of safely. Permanent Connection In the case of a permanent connection, it is necessary that you install a double pole switch between the hob and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap of 3 mm.

Building In A = Auxiliary burner SR = Semirapid burner R = Rapid burner Dimensions are given in millimetres SR SR R A Fig. 1 51 0 73 0 The hob is designed to be inserted in modular kitchen units with depth of 550 - 600 mm and having proper characteristics. The building-in is also possible in modular units with a 600 mm width: in this case, the cut-out in the work top must be carried out as shown in Fig. 2. The worktop must be at least 30 mm thick.
Fitting the hob to the worktop Before fitting the hob into the cut out, an adhesive seal must be fitted to the underside outside edge of the hob. It is essential that no gaps are left in this seal in order to prevent spillage near the hob seeping into the cabinet below. Proceed as follows: 1. Remove the pan supports, the burner caps and crowns and turn the hob upside down, taking care that the spark plugs and the thermocouples are not damaged in this operation. 2.
Installation possibilities Building over a kitchen unit with door Proper arrangements must be taken in designing the furniture unit, in order to avoid any contact with the bottom of the hob which can be heated when it is operated. The recommended solution is shown in Fig. 5. The panel fitted under the hob ("a") should be easily removable to allow easy access if technical assistance is needed. See also Fig. 2. The space behind the kitchen unit ("b") can be used for connections. Fig.
Hanging furniture units or hoods must be placed at 650 mm. minimum from the hob (Fig. 6). The electronic gas hob can only be installed over a built-in oven equipped with cooling fan. If the hob is installed over a built-in oven equipped with pyrolytic cleaning function, the hob must not be in use while the pyrolytic cleaning cycle of the oven is running. Fig. 6 Fig. 7 Fig.
