introduction
You have chosen to cook with gas. You have therefore also chosen a hob which offers optimum ease of use. The gas hob is easy to operate, heats up quickly and is reliable. Furthermore, the gas flame can be adjusted very accurately. Professional chefs don't cook with gas for nothing!
Thanks to the spacious positioning of the wok burner, a wok can be used and leave minimal two burners free for the preparation of other dishes.
By reading through these instructions you can find out quickly and simply about the possibilities offered by your appliance. Advice on safety and the maintenance of your appliance is included, as well as environmental tips and ways of saving energy.
Do not throw away the instructions for use and the installation instructions. Another user who takes on the appliance will find this information useful.
Happy cooking.

Only appliances equipped with an electronic igniter have a flex.
The distance from a knob or a non heat resistant wall is always greater than 2 cm.
When the flame reaches the ends of the pan support, the flame could damage the enamel.
If the pan is nearer, the knobs or the wall may become discoloured or deformed.
Discoloration of or damage to the enamel of the pan supports is not covered by the guarantee.
things to watch out for
open the mains tap
plug the appliance in
check: the distance between pan and knob and the distance between pan and wall.
check: that the pan supports are positioned correctly on the drip tray.

do
When a gas cooking appliance is being used heat and moisture is produced in the area where the appliance is situated. Make sure that the area is sufficiently ventilated; open natural ventilation openings or fit a mechanical ventilator (extractor). When the hob is used for longer periods extra ventilation may be needed, such as an open window or a higher setting on the ventilator (extractor).
This cooking appliance is designed for household use. It should only be used for preparing meals.
Use pans with a diameter of between 12 and 28 cm.
don’t
Never cover ventilation openings in the kitchen.
Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of the appliance while in operation.
Where the appliance may be installed in marine craft or caravans it shall not be used as a space heater.
Do not use the appliance to heat the kitchen. This will produce a damp atmosphere.
Smaller pans will be unstable, and larger pans may cause walls or knobs to overheat. Using pans which are too big may deform the control knobs or discolour the walls. This is not covered by the guarantee.
Never flambe under an extractor. The high flames can cause fire. Even if the ventilator is switched off.

Push the control in and turn it to the full on position. The burner lights automatically.
You may set the knob at any position between full-on and simmer.
This appliance is fitted with a thermocouple. This is a thermoelectric protection system. It ensures that the gas tap is closed if the flame goes out.
If a burner refuses to light, always check:
- that the cover is properly aligned on the burner;
- that the burner is clean and dry.
It is important that you check regularly whether or not this protection system is working properly.
testing
1.
Blow out the flame and wait for one minute. The gas tap now closes, and no more gas should come out of the burner.
2. Hold a lighted match next to the
burner. The burner should not ignite now. If it does, you should contact the service department immediately.

The points of the flames are hottest. If flames escape around the sides of the pan much heat is lost.
This can save on energy by up to 50%.
Thin and light pans will cause food to burn on the pan more easily. They will also lose their shape more easily and therefore become less stable.
To use the gas as efficiently as possible it is best to use a pan with a large diameter.
If the base of the pan is thick it will take a little more time for the heat to reach the food, but the base will have a more uniform temperature.

are best done on the rapid burner. This gives the greatest heat.
The vario burner is ideal for preparing portions for about 4 people.
are best done on the simmer burner.
is best done on the 2 zone wok burner.
The pan supports should have their narrow edges next to each other. When removing and fitting the grids, take care that you remove them by lifting them straight up and fit them by lowering them straight down, so that you avoid scratching the drip tray.
Choose the right sized pan. The best is between 16 and 28 cm in diameter, although a 10 cm pan will also fit on the burner.
Choose the right sized pan. The best is between 16 and 28 cm in diameter, although a 10 cm pan will also fit on the burner.
At full heat, this burner is large enough to cook food through.
This burner is particularly suitable for stir-frying in a wok. In addition to using the wok burner for stir-frying, you can also use it for stewing, steaming and deep-frying small quantities in the wok.
Be careful: always fit the auxiliary support on the wok support at an angle of 45 degrees. A wrongly fitted auxiliary support will become too hot, resulting in possible damage.

do
Clean the appliance with water and a detergent or all purpose cleaner.
Remove with a non-abrasive cream or a soft sponge.
Remove with 3M cleaner for stainless steel or a non-scouring sponge. These sponges can be recognised by their white surface e.g. Scotch Brite no. 373.
If stains cannot be removed, clean the hob with the proprietary HG barbecue grill & oven cleaner. Always treat the whole drip-tray, to prevent "colour differences". Always treat with a stainless steel polish/care product afterwards.
Any spillage should be removed immediately, particularly red cabbage, apple sauce and rhubarb. These can leave permanent spots on the enamel or on stainless steel.
don’t
Avoid using too much water to prevent it entering the burner or ventilation openings.
Never use
scouring powders, aggressive cleaning agents, green scours.
Green scours contain scouring agents which can scratch stainless steel. The structure of the stainless surface is such that (shiny) spots may appear after polishing or scouring.
This damage is not covered by the guarantee.
Do not drop hot burner caps in cold water. Because of the strong cooling they might get damaged.
keep your appliance looking
good
Regular wiping down directly after use prevents dirt from burning on and resulting in stains which are difficult to remove.

space required around
Where cupboards, drawers etc. are located beneath the hob, there must be a physical barrier installed at a minimum clearance of 10 mm from the base of the hob.
In view of the fact that gas hobs generate quite an amount of heat it is necessary, for safe installation, to allow a sufficient distance between the hob and non heat-resistant material (see illustration).

ASKO’s guarantee
troublefree housekeeping
A household appliance should always offer Troublefree performance. It cannot just suddenly stop working, it should not be noisy or vibrate, nor should it be dirty or ugly, waste water and electricity, or blink obstinately while refusing to allow itself to be programmed. The whole point of household appliances is to make your life troublefree - not be the cause of your troubles! When we created ASKO, we did all we could to prevent problems by incorporating high quality, reliability, timeless design, and efficient features into a few, carefully selected models. However, no matter how hard you try, at some point someone may require service on an appliance. Since neither we, nor any other manufacturer can guarantee 100% reliability, we created a unique service concept for our ASKO customers which guarantees that we will take care of any problem that might arise ­before it starts to trouble you.
We call it 'troublefree housekeeping'. For us this is a way to stay in touch with our customers, to make sure that you are still satisfied after 2 years, as well as after 13. In practice, the Troublefree housekeeping concept gives you the best service possible.You can call on the Troublefree line at any time to ask questions or request service. We will still stay in touch with you and your appliance for as long as you use it - and we expect that to be a long time!
