Safety Information
Keep an eye on children when the hob is in use. Pans get very hot when used and remain warm for some time after the hob has been turned off. Never let children touch or play with the controls.
Take care to ensure that the burner rings and covers are positioned cor­rectly over the burner tops. Never leave the hob unattended when deep frying or melting fat, paraffin wax or other easily ignited substances. Never leave paper, dish cloths, aluminium foil or any other easily ignited materials close to the hob. A hot hob can cause foil, plastic or paper to melt or burn.
Put out flames with a lid, and never use water.
Check that the hob is turned off when not in use.
The hob is intended for domestic use only. If it is used in any other way there is a risk of accidents.
Children
Use
Remember that the hotplate, the pan supports and the burners will stay hot for a long time after you have turned off the heat. For hygienic and safety reasons the gas burners must be kept clean. Grease splashes and spilt food will give off fumes if heated up and in the worst cases could cause a fire.
Service and repair must be per­formed by our service organisation or an organisation approved by us. Only spare parts supplied by our service organisation may be used.
Make sure the packaging is disposed of in such a manner that children cannot access the used packaging.

Burners
The burners are made up of a burner body, a burner ring and a burner cap. Each burner has electrical ignition which means you do not need matches to light it. Each burner has a safety device. If the flame goes out, the safety device will automatically shut off the gas supply.

Before Use
Protect the ceramic hob
Clean the burners
Before using the product for the first time, clean off any factory residues such as dust or dirt. Give the ce­ramic hob a protective coating before using it. This will make it easier to clean the hob and will pre­vent spills etc. burning on too hard. This is what you do:
1. Remove the pan support(s), burn­er ring and burner cover.
2. Sprinkle a few drops of a ceramic cleaning agent onto a piece of kitchen paper and rub into the whole surface.
3. Polish the hob with a clean cloth until dry.
Wash the pan stands, burner covers and burner rings in hot water and washing-up liquid.

How to use
Ceramic hob
Never use a cracked ceramic hob. Water could boil over and/or cleaning agents pene­trate into the live electrical parts. Switch off the power to the appliance and contact Service. Never leave the hob unat­tended when deep frying or melting fat, paraffin wax or other easily ignited sub­stances. Never leave paper, dish cloths, aluminium foil or any other easily ignited materials in the immediate vicinity of the hob. A hot hob can cause foil, plastic or paper to melt or burn. In case of fire, turn off all knobs and switch off any cooker hood. Extinguish the fire with a fire blanket or dampened cloth. Never use water. Scrape any spillages from the hob immediately, using a hob scraper if necessary. Spillages of sugar and sugar­rich foods (jam, fruit syrup etc.), melted plastic and alu­minium foil can damage the hob.

Burners
Make quite sure the burner ring and burner cap are posi­tioned correctly over the burner top.
For correct combustion the burner rings and burner cap must be posi­tioned correctly over the burner body. If the burner rings and caps are off-centre, the gas flame will burn incorrectly and the burner cap may be ruined in a short space of time.
Control knobs
The control knobs have the follow­ing settings:
Off:

While the control knob is held down, sparks will be formed. This is done by the electrical ignition which lights the gas without your having to use matches. If no electrical connec­tion is possible, you can light the gas with matches.
Make full use of energy by using good quality cooking pans. All pans designed for gas and electric stoves can be used.
Size of pans The burner you use to cook with will depend on the base diameter of the cooking pan.
Small burner, recommended pan size: 90-130 mm Medium burner, recommended pan size: 130-210 mm Large burner, recommended pan size: 180-280 mm
You can check that you are using the right burner by looking at the flame. At setting
e
the flame should remain approx. 1 cm inside the edge of the pan.
The flame should not “lick” up the side of the pan.

Advice and tips on use of burners
!
The pans must match the burn­ers. At setting
e
the flame must remain approx. 1 cm inside the edge of the pan.
!
Use close-fitting lids on the pans. Not using a lid on the pan
uses three time as much gas. Place the pans on the cooking zone before you light the gas.
!
Save water: use as little water as possible. Use just enough
water to cover the item being cooked wherever possible.
!
Cover the pan with a close-fit­ting lid. Bring to the boil at the
maximum setting and turn down to the lowest possible level when steam starts emerging steadily from the lid. Estimate cooking time from when you turn down the heat. Avoid looking at the potatoes/vegetables until the cooking time is up.
!
Turn down the heat immediate­ly the water boils. Select the cor-
rect setting. Start at the maximum setting and turn down as far as possible, without letting the pan go off the boil.
!
Defrost food in the refrigerator.
!
You will save energy by cooking on the hob rather than in the oven.
Follow the advice below to save energy and make clean­ing easier.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Carry out daily cleaning with a well wrung-out cloth. For more stubborn soiling, use a cloth or a soft plastic sponge together with washing-up liquid or all-purpose cleaner.
Never use metal cleaning pads, metal wool, hard plastic sponges, scouring powder, soft soap or other abrasive or caustic cleaning agents.
For hygienic and safety rea­sons, keep the burners clean. Grease splashes and spilt food will give off fumes when heated and in the worst case can lead to a fire.
Aluminium
Immediately scrape off spillages and traces of sugar, sugar-rich food (jam, fruit juice etc.), melted plastic and aluminium foil from the hot surface. If the hob is allowed to cool down, damage may result.
1. Remove splashes etc. with a ceramichob scraper.
2. Make sure the hob has cooled down.
Use a cleaning agent designed
for vitroceramic hobs.
Follow the instructions on the
container.
Ceramic hob
3. Wipe the hob clean with a damp cloth or kitchen paper. Stubborn stains can be removed by rubbing hard with the cleaning agent sprinkled on a piece of kitchen paper.
4. Wipe off excess cleaning agent with a damp cloth.
5. If necessary, finish off with a dry cloth.
Make sure the hob is dry before heating up again. A damp hob may display rainbow-like stripes when heated up.
Page 15

Burners
Clean the burner covers and rings in hot water and washing-up liquid.
Never use metal cleaning pads, metal wool or other abrasive clean­ers.
Pan supports
Clean pan supports in hot water and washing-up liquid.
Never use metal cleaning pads, metal wool or other abrasive clean­ers.
Burner tops
If hot food spills into the burner top, this must be removed before lighting again. Remove spillages in the burn­er top with a lint-free cloth.
Never use metal cleaning pads, metal wool or other abrasive clean­ers.
