Instrucciones de funcionamiento

Dear Customer,

We thank and congratulate you on your choice. This practical, modern and functional appliance has been built with top quality materials. These materials have been subjected to thorough quality control in the manufacturing process, and meticulously tested in order for this appliance to meet your every need, achieving perfect cooking. Therefore, we ask you to read and follow these simple instructions in order to guarantee unbeatable results from the first use. This manual contains important information, not only for use of the appliance, but safety and maintenance as well.

During transport, our products are protected by efficient packaging materials. However, we have reduced our packaging to the bare essentials. The materials are all completely recyclable. Just like us, you can help protect the environment. To do so, we recommend you dispose of these materials in the recycling facility nearest you. Waste oil should not be poured down the sink drain, as this has a negative impact on the environment. Place it in a closed container and dispose of it at a collection point. If this is not possible, dispose of it with standard domestic waste (as it will be taken to a controlled landfill, and though this is not the best solution, at least water pollution will be avoided). Present and future generations will appreciate it. Before you get rid of an old appliance, make sure you render it inoperable. Next, deliver it to a recyclable material collection facility. Your local government can provide you with the necessary information on the nearest collection facility.

Before the first start-up

Remove the packaging from the appliance and dispose of it as per local laws. Remember that there are other accessories in addition to packaging materials. Keep packaging materials and plastic bags out of the reach of children.

Check the condition of the appliance before installing it, to ensure that it has suffered no damage during transport.

Only authorized technical personnel must install and connect the appliance before its first start-up in compliance with the regulations of the gas supplier companies and local.

Turn the control dials to before connecting the appliance to the current supply.

The appliance's serial number is indicated on the control slip annexed to this manual. For warranty purposes, keep this note together with the usage and assembly instructions.

Carefully read the assembly and usage instructions before starting up the appliance.

Keep the ventilation channels open. Prolonged use of the appliance with several or all cooking units may require additional ventilation, such as opening a window or a door or more intensive extraction of air with an extraction hood.

To guarantee good combustion, the room in which the appliance is installed must have a minimum volume of

There are indications to show which burner each control knob operates. Fig. 1.

To light a burner, press the chosen control knob and turn it toward the left, holding it in the maximum setting for a few seconds until the burner is lit, then release it, and adjust to the desired setting. If it does not light, repeat the procedure.

CAUTION - All igniters spark w hen any single burner is

to light. Therefore, keep them as clean as possible. This cleaning should be performed with a small brush, considering

that the ignitor can not withstand any sharp blows.

If your cooktop is not fitted with this automatic lighting

feature, use a lighter or a match to light the burner.

Your cooktop may be equipped with safety thermocouples

to prevent gas flow if the burners are accidentally extinguished. Figure 2.

To turn on and activate this innovative system, proceed in the same way, but keeping the control knob pressed down until ignition takes place, the flame appears and does not extinguish. If ignition does not take place, repeat the procedure, keeping the control knob pressed down 1-5 seconds.

To turn it off, turn the control knob to the right to the correct position . When carrying out this procedure, the ignition system may activate again. This is completely normal.

Triple flame burners and large triple flame burners are very practical and convenient for cooking with "paella" pans, Chinese Woks (all sorts of Asian dishes), etc.

If your cooktop is equipped with a large triple flame burner,

it will have a valve facilitating independent control of the interior and exterior flame. This revolutionary system makes it possible to select from a wide array of power settings. Working description Fig. 3.

The direct impact of the flame on the enamel may cause an

The use of the appliance produces heat and humidity in the site where it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen has good ventilation. Keep ventilation channels open or install a mechanical ventilation system (extraction hood).

Prolonged use of the appliance with several or all cooking units may require additional ventilation, such as opening a window (without causing air currents) or increasing the power of mechanical ventilation if it exists.

Match Pan Diameter to Flame Size

- The flame should be the same size the bottom of the pan or smaller. Do not use small pans with high flame settings as the flames can lick up the sides of the pan.

Use Balanced Pans

- Pans must sit level on the cooktop grate without rocking.

- Center pan over burner.

Use a lid That Fits Properly

- A well-fitting lid shorten the cooking time.

Cooking warnings

NO YES

Do not use small pots on large burners. The flame should not touch the sides of the pot.

Do not cook without a lid, or if the lid moves, as this causes a partial energy loss.

Do not use pots with irregular bottoms as they lengthen cooking time and increase energy consumption.

Do not place the pot off-center over the burner, as tipping could result. Do not use large-diameter pots on the burners near the control knobs, which, once centered over the burner, could touch the knobs or be close enough to them that the temperature of that area increases, possibly causing damage.

Always use appropriate pots for each burner. This will prevent excessive consumption of gas and staining of the pots.

Always use the lid.

Use only pots, pans and casseroles with flat, thick

bottoms.

Center the pot over

the burner.

Never place pots directly on top of the burners.

Do not use excessive weights or strike the cooktop with heavy objects.

Never use two burners or heat sources to heat a single pot.

Avoid using roasting grilles, earthen pots, etc. for extended periods at maximum power.

Place the pot over the grate. Make sure that the grates and burner covers

are in the correct positions before using the appliance.

Handle pots carefully when they are on the cooktop.

Steel usage rules: cleaning and care

NO YES

DO NOT use abrasive products, sharp objects, steel wool, knives, etc. to remove hardened remains of food on the cooktop, pan supports, burners or electrical cooktops. If your cooktop has a glass panel, DO NOT use a knife, scraper or any similar device to clean the joint where it meets the metal.

DO NOT use steam cleaning machines on the cooktop, as they could damage it.

DO NOT leave acidic liquids (lemon juice, vinegar, etc.) on the cooktop.

Once the appliance has cooled, clean it with a

sponge, soap and water.

Remove all spilt liquids immediately. This will save unnecessary efforts.

To keep the burners and pan supports clean, they must be regularly cleaned, submerging them in soapy water and scrubbing them with a non-metallic brush so that the holes and slots are perfectly clear to provide proper flame. Always dry the burner covers and the grates if they have become wet.

After cleaning and drying the burners, ensure that the lids are properly placed atop the burner flame diffuser. If the appliance has Monoblock burners, ensure that they are perfectly dry before their next use.

Due to the high temperatures that the ring lid of your triple flame burner, and stainless steel areas such as the grease splash tray and the outer perimeter of the burners, etc. must withstand, they will become discoloured over time. This is NORMAL. Clean them after every use using products appropriate for stainless steel. After washing the grates, dry them completely before cooking with them again. The presence of water droplets or wet areas at the beginning of cooking can cause possible points of enamel deterioration. If the grates of your cooktop have rubber pads, use precaution when cleaning them, as they could come off, leaving the grate unprotected and leading to scratching of the cooktop. Stainless steel cleaning products should not be used in the area surrounding the control knobs. The (printed) symbols may be wiped off.
