Use 3 Use 3.1 Instructions Improper use Danger of burns • Make sure that the flame-spreader crowns are correctly positioned in their seats with their respective burner caps. • Oils and fats could catch fire if overheated. Be very careful. • Do not leave the appliance unattended during cooking operations where fats or oils could be released. • Do not spray any spray product near the appliance. • Do not touch the appliance’s heating elements when it is running. Leave them to cool before cleaning.
Use All the appliance’s control and monitoring devices are located together on the front panel. The burner controlled by each knob is shown next to the knob. The appliance is equipped with an electronic ignition device. Simply press the knob and turn it counterclockwise to the maximum flame symbol, until the burner ignites. If the burner does not light in the first 15 seconds, turn the knob to and wait 60 seconds before trying again.
Use Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to ensure that the liquid does not boil over. Cookware diameters: • AUX: 12 - 14 cm. • SR: 16 - 20 cm. • RR: 22 - 26 cm. • UR3: 22 - 26 cm. • UR2 int. + UR2 ext.: 22 - 26 cm. To prevent burns or damage to the hob or the counter top during cooking, all pans or griddles must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob.
Use EN • if one of the burners close to the wooden rear wall is an ultra-rapid burner (UR3 or UR2 int. + ext.), leave a gap of at least 160 mm between the edge of the griddle and the side wall; • do not allow the burner flames to extend beyond the edge of the griddle; • Never use the griddle for more than 40 minutes. • When using aluminium griddles with Teflon non-stick coating, these should be pre-heated empty for a maximum of 5 minutes in order to avoid damage to the appliance and the coating.
Cleaning and maintenance 4 Cleaning and maintenance 4.2 Cleaning the appliance 4.1 Instructions To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first. Improper use Risk of damage to surfaces • Do not use steam jets to clean the appliance. • Do not use cleaning products containing chlorine, ammonia or bleach on parts made of steel or that have metallic surface finishes (e.g. anodizing, nickelor chromium-plating).
Cooking hob grids Igniters and thermocouples Remove the grids and clean them in lukewarm water and non-abrasive detergent. Make sure to remove any encrustations. Dry them thoroughly and return them to the hob. For correct operation the igniters and thermocouples must always be perfectly clean. Check them frequently and clean them with a damp cloth if necessary. Remove any dry residues with a wooden toothpick or a needle.
Installation 5 Installation 5.2 Section cut from the countertop The following operation requires building and/or carpentry work and must therefore be carried out by a competent tradesman. Installation can be carried out on various materials such as masonry, metal, solid wood or plastic laminated wood as long as they are heat resistant (>90 °C). 5.1 Safety instructions Heat production during appliance operation Risk of fire • Make sure that the cabinet material is heat resistant.
Installation EN Overall dimensions: gas and electrical connection location (measures in mm) opens on bottom and on rear If installed on top of an oven, the latter must be equipped with a cooling fan. G gas connection E electrical connection 5.3 Mounting Over built-in oven unit The clearance between the hob and the kitchen furniture or other installed appliances must be enough to ensure sufficient ventilation and air discharge.
Installation Hob seal To prevent leakage of liquid between the frame of the hob and the work surface, place the insulating seal provided in position before assembly, as shown in the figure below. opens on rear Failure to install the double-layer wooden base exposes the user to possible accidental contact with sharp or hot parts. 1. Refer to the dimensions in the figure, bearing in mind that the front and rear sides of the seal must brush against the hole.
Installation The figure below shows the fastening points of the cover to the top surface. EN 2. Use light pressure to make the seal stick to the edge around the hole cut in the worktop. 3. Carefully trim the surplus away from edge (C) beyond the seal. 5.4 Fixing to the supporting structure Secure the hob to the piece of furniture through the appropriate bracket (A). Do not fix the hob using silicone. This would make it impossible to remove the hob, if necessary, without damaging it.
Installation 5.5 Gas connection Gas leak Danger of explosion • After carrying out any operation, check that the tightening torque of gas connections is between 10 Nm and 15 Nm. • If required, use a pressure regulator that complies with current regulations. • At the end of the installation, check for any leaks with a soapy solution, never with a flame. • The hoses should not come into contact with moving parts and should not be crushed in any way.
Installation Connection to LPG Use a pressure regulator and make the connection on the gas cylinder following the guidelines set out in the standards in force. The supply pressure must comply with the values indicated in the table “Gas types and Countries”. Room ventilation This appliance is not connected to an exhaust system for combustion products. It must be installed and connected in compliance with the current installation regulations.
Installation When the job is complete, the installer must issue a certificate of conformity. 5.6 Adaptation to different types of gas If other types of gas are to be used, the nozzles must be replaced and the primary air must be adjusted. In order to replace the nozzles and adjust the burners, the hob top must be removed. Removing the hob top 1. Remove the grids from the hob.
Installation 5. Remove the top. EN 3. Remove the flame-spreader crowns and relative burner caps. 4. Remove the gasket on each burner's thermocouple and igniter. Replacing the nozzles/air regulation 1. Unscrew screw "A" and push air regulator "B" as far as it will go. 2. Use a spanner to remove the nozzles "C" and install the new ones for the required gas supply, following the indications given in the relevant table (see "Gas types and Countries").
Installation Adjusting the minimum setting for natural or town gas 3. Reposition support "B" so that nozzle "C" is covered completely. 4. Move the Venturi tube "D" to adjust the air flow until distance "X" is reached as indicated in the paragraph (see Table "Burner and nozzle characteristics" "Primary air adjustment (mm)") and then secure the tube by means of screw "A". 5. After adjusting each burner, reassemble the appliance correctly. The nozzle tightening torque must be no more than 3 Nm.
Installation Adjusting the minimum setting for LPG EN Tighten the screw located at the side of the cock rod clockwise all the way. Following adjustment to a gas other than the one originally set in the factory, replace the gas setting label on the appliance with the one corresponding to the new gas. The label is inserted inside the nozzle pack (where present). Lubricating the gas taps Over time the gas taps may become difficult to turn and get blocked.
