3 USE OF THE HOB BURNERS Each burner is controlled by a gas tap (fig. 3.1) assuring the opening and the closing of the gas supply. Make the knob symbols match with the indicator on the control panel to obtain: • symbol : off • symbol : full on (nominal rate) • symbol : reduced rate √√ The maximum aperture position permits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas the minimum aperture position allows slower warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of liquids. √√ √√ Fig. 3.
LIGHTING THE BURNERS To ignite the burner, the following instructions are to be followed: 1. Press in the corresponding knob and turn counter-clockwise (fig. 3.2 ) to the full flame position marked by the (full on) symbol (fig. 3.1). 2. Press the ignition button marked by the symbol (fig. 3.3). The sparks produced by the electrodes situated next to the burner will light the selected burner. In the case of a mains failure light the burner with a match or lighted taper. 3.
CORRECT USE OF THE TRIPLE-RING BURNER The flat-bottomed pans are to be placed directly onto the pan-support. When using a WOK you need to place the supplied stand in the burner to avoid any faulty operation of the triple-ring burner (Figs. 3.5a - 3.5b). IMPORTANT: The special grille for wok pans (fig. 3.5b) MUST BE PLACED ONLY over the pan-rest for the triple-ring burner. WRONG CORRECT Fig. 3.5a Fig. 3.

The installation conditions, concerning protection against overheating of the surfaces adjacent to the cooker, must conform to Figs. 6.1 and 6.2. A space of at least 2 cm must be left between the cooker and any adjacent furniture, which must not exceed the height of the cooktop.
VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS The appliance must be installed in compliance with applicable local regulations concerning ventilation and the evacuation of exhaust gases. Intensive and prolonged use may require extra ventilation, e.g. opening a window, or more efficient ventilation increasing the mechanical suction power if this is fitted.
7 GAS SECTION GAS INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS Important ! • The walls adjacent to the cooker must be of heat-resistant material. • Before installation, make sure that the local distribution conditions (gas type and pressure) and the adjustment of this appliance are compatible. The appliance adjustment conditions are given on the plate or the label. • This appliance must be installed and serviced only by a suitably qualified, registered installer.
CONNECTING THE APPLIANCE TO THE GAS SUPPLY The gas connection must be carried out by an authorised person according to the relevant standards. Ensure that the room in which the cooker is to be installed is adequately ventilated, in compliance with applicable regulations. • Connect the cooker to the gas mains utilizing rigid or flexible pipes. • The gas supply is connected at the rear of the cooker to the terminal of the gas inlet pipe (Fig. 7.1).
2. 3. 4. Connect the cooker to the gas supply using a suitable rubber hose (internal diameter 13 mm). The hose must comply with the applicable local regulations and be of the correct construction for the type of gas being used. Make sure that the hose is tightly and securely fitted at both ends. Use a standard hose clamp (not supplied) to fasten the hose. Connecting the cooker to LPG 1.
Gas connection with rubber hose holders Note: if not already fitted on the inlet pipe, the hose holders are supplied with the product in a separate kit.
• • • • • • • • the flexiple pipe does not exceed 2000 mm in length (or refer to applicable local regulations) and does not come into contact with sharp edges, corners or moving parts. Use a single flexible pipe only; never connect the cooker with more than one flexible pipe. the flexible pipe can easily be inspected along its entire length to check its condition; if it has an expiry date, it should be replaced before that date.
GAS CYLINDER CONNECTION The connection between the hose connector on the cooker and the regulator of the gas cylinder must be made using a 60 cm long flexible hose conforming to applicable standards, and hose clamps. The connection hose must be inserted in the hose support (fig. 7.4) and pushed over the hose connectors to the full depth.
