Operation

Hob burners control knobs

The symbols on the knobs mean that :

there is no gas supply

there is maximum gas supply there is minimum gas supply

Lighting the burners

For easier lighting, proceed before putting a pan on the pan support.

To light a burner, turn the relevant knob anticlockwise to maximum position ()and push down the knob to ignite.

Afterlightingtheflame,keeptheknobpushed
down for about 5 seconds. This will allow
the "thermocouple" to be heated and the
safety device to be switched off, otherwise
the gas supply would be interrupted. Then,
check the flame is regular and adjust it as
required. If you cannot light the flame even
after several attempts, check the "cap" is in
the correct position.
If you cannot light the flame even after
several attempts, check the "cap" (lett. A)
and the "crown" (lett. B) are in the correct
position.	A - Burner cap
	B - Burner crown
To put the flame out, turn the knob to the	C - Ignition electrode
symbol .	D - Thermocouple
symbol .

In the absence of electricity, ignition can

occur without the electrical device; in this case approach the burner with a flame, push the relevant knob down and turn it anticlockwise until it reaches the "maximum" position.

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table).

Burner	minimum	maximum
	diameter	diameter
Large (rapid)	160 mm.	240 mm.
Medium (semi-rapid)	120 mm.	220 mm.
Small (Auxiliary)	80 mm.	160 mm.

As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid simmering.

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.

Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated splashes could easily ignite.

If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your local Service Force Centre.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the hob from the electricity supply.

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage can be removed more easily than if it is left to cool.

The hob top

Clean the hob while it is still warm.

Never use aggressive or abrasive agents, such as oven sprays, stain or rust removers, scouring powders, or sponges with an abrasive effect.

Special cleaning agents and ceramic hob scrapers are available from department stores.

Slight, non-burnt soilage can be wiped off with a damp cloth. Burnt soilage has to be removed with a scraper. Afterwards wipe off the ceramic hob with a damp cloth.

Light metallic stains (aluminium residues) can be removed from the cooking zone with a ceramic hob cleaning agent such as Vitroclen when cool.

Sugar solutions, food stuffs with a high sugar content must be removed immediately with a scraper. If this type of soilage is not removed immediately it can cause irreparable damage to the ceramic surface. When the surface has cooled wipe over with a damp cloth and Vitroclen.

Before using any detergent or cleaning agent on the ceramic top, ensure they are recommended by the manufacturer for use on ceramic hobs.

Do not apply any cleaning agents to hot cooking zones. Ensure any residues are wiped off before the cooking zones are used again.

If scratches or cracks are noticed, disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply to avoid the risk of electric shock and call your nearest Service Force Centre.

Keep all objects and materials which can melt away from the cooking surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil.

Care should be taken when preparing food or drinks containing sugar. If anything of this nature accidentally comes into contact with the ceramic surface it must be scraped off immediately while stlll hot and wiped away to avoid damage to the surface.
