not lick up the sides of the pan.
• Put lids on saucepans and only
heat the amount of liquid you
need.
• When liquids boil, reduce the control setting to maintain a simmer.
• Consider the use of a pressure
cooker for the cooking of a complete meal.
• Potatoes and vegetables will cook
quicker if chopped into saller
pieces.
Note
Extra care should be taken when cooking food in salted water. Some foods
are corrosive - eg; vinegar, fruit juices
and especially salt
- they can mark or
damage stainless steel if they a re left
on the surface. Turn off and wipe any
spillage immediately, taking care to
avoid skin contact with any hot surface
or spillage.

Care & Cleaning
Caution: Any cleaning agent
used incorrectly may damage
the hob.
Always let the hob cool before
cleaning.
Some cooking operations generate a
considerable amount of grease. This,
combined with spillage, can become a
hazard if allowed to accumulate on
the hob through lack of cleaning. In
extreme cases this may amount to misuse of the appliance & could invalidate your guarantee.
Do not use caustic, corrosive or abrasive cleaning products, coarse wire
wool or any hard implements, as they
will damage the surfaces.
All parts of the hob can be safely
cleaned with a cloth wrung out in hot
soapy water.
Burner caps and heads
Important: Allow burners to cool
before cleaning.
Caution: Hotplate burners can be
damaged by soaking, automatic dishwashers (or dishwasher powders / liquids), caustic pastes, hard implements,
coarse wire wool, and abrasive cleaning pastes.
Clean with a moist soapy pad.
For the burners to work safely, the slots
in the burner h ead where the flames
burn need to be kept clear of deposit.
Clean with a nylon brush, rinse, & dry
thoroughly.
Any brownish coloured marks o n the
burners are carbon deposits or fat stains,
which can be removed by gently rubbing with a soapy pad.
Important: The berner caps and
heads must
be repositioned correctly
so that they sit squarely onto the hob
as shown below.
This is particularly important with stainless s teel models a s f ailure to reposition the caps correctly may result in
discolouration of the stainless steel
around the burners.

Clearances & dimensions
The room should have good light and
ventilation but be free from draughts.
The worktop should be at least
600mm deep, & 30mm thick to
enable the cutout to be made to the
dimensions shown below.
A minimum distance of 40mm should
be maintained between the hob and
rear wall / combustible surface.
A minimum distance of 78mm should
be maintained between the hob and
any side walls / combustible surface.
Surfaces which are non-combustible, or
are protected with suitable non-combustible material, may have reduced
clearances. Refer to New World for
guidance.
We recommend ceramic tiling for the
rear wall directly behind the hob.
No shelf or overhang of combustible
material should be closer than 650mm
above the hob.
Extractor or cooker hoods should only
be fitted above the hob in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions.
No combustible materials or flammable liquids should be stored below the
hob.
Sufficient length of cable should be
allowed so the hob can be removed
for servicing, but make sure it is routed
away from the underside of the hob &
does not get trapped during installation.
Important: Ensure that you route all
electrical cables and flexible tubing
well clear of any adjacent heat source

Base Tray
GDHA specified dimensions with batons
Existing dimension without batons
Important Information
It is important when installing front
control gas hobs, that the work top
cut out is the same as is quoted in
this installation manual. If the cut out
is too large, then batons must be fitted to the front, rear and sides - to
correct the discrepancy and ensure
the correct fit. Please ensure that if
batons are fitted they are level with
the top surface of the work top
Please ensure that the seal for the
hob has full contact with the work
top surface.
There are two ways to install
the clamps, depending on the thick-
ness of the work top, please measure
the thickness of your work top and
ensure that the correct method is
used. Both methods are detailed in
the installation manual.
Failure to follow these instructions can
lead to exessive force being applied
to the basetray, which results in the
clearence between the control knob
and the hob top pressing being
reduced. This can effect the operation of the gas control, and the ignition.
Page 14
Fit the hob into the cutout &
secure to worktop
Place the hob into the cutout and
secure in place using the four brackets
and screws provided.
The brackets should be orientated to
suit the worktop thickness as shown,
then inserted into the four slots (two on
the front edge and two on the rear)
and screwed into the underside of the
worktop using the woodscrews provid-
ed.
The screws should be tightened just
sufficiently to secure the hob and pull
the top press ing fl ush with the worktop.
If the base of the hob is accessible
after installation then a partition must
be fitted 20mm below the base to prevent access.

Alternative clamp positions
If the front and rear clamp positions
are problematic, alternative positions
can be used on the sides of the hob,
dependant on the particular installa-
tion.
These positions will require clearance
from any cabinet sides and may effect
how tightly the hob will meet the worktop.
Stone (Granite or equivalent)
worktops
Depending on the type of worktop
being used, there may or may not be
any backing material to screw the
clamp screws into.
1. If the worktop is a composite type
(backed with MDF or similar) there
may be enough backing to screw
directly into. This will depend on
the worktop thickness and backing
thickness and will have to be
assessed at the installation. In this
case, install the hob as for a standard worktop.
2. If there is insufficient backing mate-
rial to screw into, or if the worktop
is completely solid in const ruction,
then it will be necessary to glue a
strip of wood, MDF, fibre board or
similar to the underside of the worktop, along the front and rear edges
of the cutout. Use a strong, proprietary adhesive to bond these strips
and allow to cure before atte mpt-
ing to clamp the hob into position.

Installation advice - cabinetry
Dealing with sides, cross- rails
a
nd back-panels in cabinetry
Depending on the cabinets, the worktop thickness and the hob positioning,
it is possible for the hob base, the
clamp brackets and/or the gas con nection to interfere with parts of the
cabinet. These can be dealt with as
follows:
Cabinet sides
If the hob i s to be i nstalled across the
top of two cabinet housing units, then
the base of the hob may interfere with
the sides of these units. It will be necessary to cu t away the top of the unit
sides locally to clear the ho b, cl amp
brackets and/or gas connection.
Cross-Rails
1. Interference with hob base
If there are any cross-rails which
obstruct the hob base by running
across the worktop cutout, they can
simply be removed or locally cutaway to allow the hob to be
installed, depending on the particular installation. Any modifications
must ensure that the strength of the
cabinet is maintained.
2. Interference with clamp brackets
If the re are any cross-rails which
prevent the clamps from being
positioned on the front or rear
edges of the hob, then they can be
removed or locally cut-away
around the brackets to allow the
brackets to be installed.
Any modifications must ensure that
the strength of the cabinet is maintained.
Back-panel
1. Interference with clamp brackets
If the cabinet has a back-panel
which prevents the clamps from
being positioned on the rear edge
of the hob, then this panel can be
completely removed or locally cutaway to allow the brackets to be
installed.
2. Interference or restriction of gas
connection
If the cabinet has a back-panel
which interferes with the position
of the gas supply to the hob, then
the panel can be completely
removed or locally cut-away to
allow connection to the gas supply.
Page 17
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS - GAS PRODUCTS
Connect to the gas supply
Means of isolation shall be provided at the
shut off point by either an approved quick
connect device or a Type 1 manual shut
off valve. The outlet of the quick connect
device shall be at, or below, the horizontal
position.
Connection to the gas supply should be
made using the Aquaknect AS/NZS 1869
class B hose assembly with an internal
