Using the hob Before first use IMPORTANT: You should clean the hob surface and solid plates (see “Cleaning and maintenance” section). o You should switch on one cooking zone at a time, for 5 minutes at the maximum setting. This will help to eliminate any new smell that exists and evaporate any humidity that has formed on the heating elements during transit. o When doing this burn off process, an appropriately sized saucepan containing cold water should be placed on the zone in question.
Hob guidelines o The first few times the hob top is used, it may give off an acrid, burning smell. This smell will disappear completely with repeated use. o The hob surface is fitted with cooking areas of different diametre and power. o The positions where the heat will radiate from are clearly marked on the hob top. The saucepans must be positioned exactly on these zones for efficient heating to occur. Pans should have the same diametre as the cooking zone that they are being used on.
Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning and maintenance operations must only be carried out when the hob is cool. The appliance should be disconnected from your mains supply before commencing any cleaning process. Cleaning the hob top Any residues that are left on the hob top surface from cleaning agents will damage it. You should remove any residues with water and a little washing up liquid.
Maintaining the solid plates o If something is spilt onto the plate itself, then it can be removed using a soft brush, plastic or nylon scourer and warm water. o To keep the solid plates in good condition, you should put a little olive oil onto a kitchen towel and rub it onto the surface of the plate. The next time the plate is used, it may produce a little smoke. o Alternatively you can use a hotplate conditioner; these products can normally be found at larger supermarkets and hardware stores.
Positioning The adjacent furniture must be able to withstand a minimum temperature rise of 85°C above the ambient temperature of the room it is located in, during periods of use. This appliance is classified as Class 3 and therefore is to be built into a kitchen unit (depending on size) or 600 mm worktop that is at least 30 mm thick. The following minimum clearance distances must be observed:o 700 mm between the hob surface and the underside of any horizontal surface above it.
Installing the appliance o Cut a hole in the worktop that corresponds with the drawing shown above. o IMPORTANT: You must have a gap of at least 15 mm between the underneath of the appliance and any surface that is below it. o Carefully turn the hob upside down and place it on a cushioned mat.
o Remove the protective covering from the sealing strip o Apply the sealing strip provided around the edge of the appliance. o Do not leave a gap in the sealing strip or overlap the thickness. IMPORTANT: Do not use a silicon sealant to seal the appliance against the aperture. This will make it difficult to remove the hob from the aperture in future, particularly if it needs to be serviced. o Carefully turn the hob back over and then gently lower it into the aperture hole that you have cut out.
Electrical connection This appliance must be installed by a qualified person in accordance with the latest edition of the I.E.E. Regulations and in compliance with Baumatic’s instructions. Before connecting the appliance, make sure that the supply voltage marked on the rating plate corresponds with your mains supply voltage. WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
o The brass links must be positioned as marked in the diagram opposite and once established ALL terminal screws must be tightened down firmly. o If when the hob is first switched on, only two of the zones work, you should recheck that the terminal screws are all fully tightened between the links. This should be done before contacting the Baumatic Customer Care Department. o IMPORTANT: The appliance must NOT be connected to the mains supply by means of a 13A plug and socket.
My appliance isn’t working correctly o The cooking zones are not functioning or will not switch on. * Check that the mains electrical supply to the appliance is correct and working. Check the mains fuse. o A humming sound is heard when a cooking zone is selected. * This is normal; the sound will disappear when the zone heats up. o The cooking zones have become discoloured * This maybe caused by burnt on remnants of food. This will not affect the working of the appliance.
