INSTALLATION

Any gas installation must be carried out by a competent person, and in

accordance with existing rules and regulations.

The relevant instructions are to be found in the second section of this manual.

Please, ensure that, once the hob is installed, it is easily accessible for the

engineer in the event of a breakdown.

WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED

Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any protective

materials, which were put on in the factory.

Operation

Hob burners

To light a burner:

! Push in the relevant control knob

and turn it to maximum position.

! Upon ignition, keep the knob

pushed down about 5 seconds.

This will allow the

"thermocouple" (see diagram-

letter D) to be heated and the

safety device to be switched off,

otherwise the gas supply would

be interrupted.

! Then adjust the flame as required. ! If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero, and try again.

Each control knob is equipped with a pilot light which gradually lights up according to the heat level that you select with the control knob.

When switching on the mains, after installation or a power cut, it is quite normal for the spark generator to be activated automatically.

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).

A - Burner cap B - Burner crown C - Ignition electrode D - Thermocouple

Burner minimum maximum

diameter diameter

Large (rapid) 160 mm. 260 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

Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a little wasing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the following:

- household detergent and bleaches;

- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;

- steel wool pads;

- bath/sink stain removers. Should the hob top become heavily soiled, the following product s are recommended:

- for stainless steel hobs use a proprietary stainless steel cleaner;

- for other hobs use Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend.

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.

Pan Supports

To keep the pan supports in the correct position, they are mounted on metal pins located in the back of the hob. To ensure a better cleaning, pan supports can be removed from the hob. Lift up the pan suports keeping them in horizontal position as shown in fig.

Avoid lifting the pan supports at an angle, as this will put strain on the metal pins. This may damage the pins and cause them to break.

After cleaning the hob, ensure the pan supports are properly placed as shown in fig. 2. The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If washing them by hand, take care when drying them as the enamelling process occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary, remove stubborn stains using a paste cleaner.

Fig. 2

The Burners

The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning. Wash the burner caps and

crowns using hot soapy water, and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well

moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are

particularly difficult to remove.

After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.

Ignition electrode

The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic "electrode" and a metal electrode (see

figure-page 6 - letter C).

Keep these components well clean, to avoid difficult lighting, and check that the burner

crown holes are not obstructed.

Something Not Working?

If the hob is not working correctly, please carry out the following checks before contacting your local Service Force Centre.

SYMPTOM

$ There is no spark when lighting the

gas

$ The gas ring burns unevenly

SOLUTION

% Check that the unit is plugged in and

the electrical supply is switched on

% Check that the RCCB has not tripped

(if fitted)

% Check the mains fuse has not blown

% Check the burner cap and crown

have been replaced correctly, e.g. after cleaning.

% Check the main jet is not blocked and

the burner crown is clear of food particles.

% Check the burner cap and crown

have been replaced correctly, e.g. after cleaning.
