Check that the pan supports are all in place and stable, and the flame spreaders, burner caps and rings are all seated correctly.

8 Cooking guidelines and cookware Cooking guidelines Important! Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use. Boilover causes smoking and greasy spills that may ignite. Take care when deep-frying: oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high setting. Start cooking on a high setting. When food comes to the boil, reduce the setting and maintain a steady heat to cook your food thoroughly. Doing this will reduce the cooking time.
Care and cleaning 9 Important! Before any cleaning or maintenance, always: turn all burners off switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall make sure that the cooktop and its parts are a safe temperature to touch. General advice Clean the cooktop regularly—do not let stains become burnt on, as they may become very difficult to remove. Do not use abrasive cleaners, cloths or pads to clean any part of your cooktop. Some nylon scourers may also scratch. Check the label.
10 Care and cleaning What? How often? Burner caps and rings, flame spreaders, pan supports, wok stand As needed, but at least once a month 1 2 3 How? Important! Remove the parts that you wish to clean. See the the illustrations following this chart. Soak stubborn stains in a solution of biological clothes washing detergent or powdered dishwasher detergent. Clean the parts in hot soapy water. Use a stiff nylon brush or straight-ended paper clip to clear the flame ports.

Troubleshooting Problem There’s a strong gas smell. 13 Possible causes and solutions The gas connection could be leaking because of incorrect installation or damaged piping. Important! Do not use any electrical equipment or operate any electrical switches. 1 If any burners are on, turn all of them off immediately. 2 If you know how to shut off the gas supply to your cooktop (either at the valve or the gas bottle), do so. 3 Open a window to let the gas out.
14 Troubleshooting Problem The burner goes out when I release the dial 3 seconds after the flame lighting. Possible causes and solutions Try lighting the burner again, this time holding the dial down longer. The flame has been blown out by a draught or extinguished by a spill.

Turn the affected burner off, then wait for at least 1 minute before attempting to relight.
