Dear customer,
We would like to thank and congratulate you for your choice.
This practical modern appliance has been made using materials of the highest quality, which have been put through the strictest of Quality Controls during manufacture and meticulously tested to ensure that they meet all of your cooking demands. To make life easier, this instructions booklet is divided up into two sections: instructions of use and installation instructions.
We kindly ask you to read and follow these simple instructions in order to guarantee first-class results from the very start. This booklet contains important information not only concerning use, but also concerning your own personal safety and maintenance of the appliance.
Our products need to be carefully packed to protect them during transportation. All the material used for packing is considered essential for this purpose and is also completely recyclable. You too can contribut towards protecting the environment by disposing of this material at your nearest recyclable refuse collection point. Do not dispose of used cooking oil down the kitchen sink. Oil may seriously damage the environment. Dispose of it in a closed container at your nearest collection point or, failing this, dispose of it in your rubbish bin. Although this last solution is far from perfect, your oil will be taken to a controlled refuse dump where it will not be allowed to pollute water. You and your children will appreciate it.
Render your old appliance useless before disposing of it at your nearest recyclable refuse collection centre.
Your local authority will be pleased to inform you where your nearest centre is.

Gas burners
fig 1.
Each control knob indicates which burner it controls. fig 1.
To light a burner, push in the knob for the burner you wish to use and turn it in an anti-clockwise direction to the lighting position. Hold the knob at the maximum position for a few seconds until the burner ignites and then release and set the knob to the desired setting. If the burner does not light at the first attempt, repeat the operation.
If your hob does not come with any kind of automatic ignition system, then light the burners with a naked flame (cigarette lighter, matches, etc.).
If the spark plugs are dirty, then a fault may occur in the ignition system. Keep them completely clean. Clean the spark plugs using a small brush, remembering that the plugs must not receive any kind of violent impact.
If your hob is equipped with burners with safety valves which prevent gas from being released should the burners accidentally go out, proceed to light as described above, but keep the control knob pressed in until the burners light and then for a few more seconds once alight. If complete ignition does not occur, repeat the operation keeping the knob pressed in for approx. 10 seconds
To turn the burners off, turn the control knob in a clockwise direction to the 0 setting.
Your modern functional hob is equipped with progressive valves which permit you to find the perfect flame setting between maximum and minimum.
Depending on the model that you have purchased, your hob may come with a triple-flame burner, the perfect system for cooking paellas, using woks, etc.
Gas appliances create both heat and humidity in the room they are used in. Make sure that your kitchen is properly ventilated: keep natural ventilation outlets open or install a mechanical ventilation system (extractor fan). When using your appliance for a prolonged period of time, it may be necessary to provide additional ventilation e.g. by opening a window (without creating a draught) or turning up the setting on your mechanical ventilation system.

Electric plates
Before using it for the first time, heat the electric plate at maximum power with no receptacle for a period of five minutes. Smoke and smells are normally given off during this time. These will disappear with use. With the exception of this first time, do not use your plates without receptacles.
When you start the cooking process, you are recommended to set the control knob to the maximum position and then lower it to a mid position for the rest of the process depending on the quantity and quality of the food you are using.
You can turn the cooking plate off a little before the end of the cooking process and make use of the heat inertia created. This will help you save on energy bills and will not affect the cooking process, which will continue thanks to the heat accumulated on the plate.
Use receptacles with perfectly flat, thick bases similar in size to the plate in use, never smaller.
Avoid liquids boiling over onto the plate surface and do not use wet receptacles.
