1. Instruction for the User

HOB BURNERS CONTROL KNOBS

The hob burners control knobs are situated on the hob
front panel. The symbols on the knobs mean that :

z there is no gas supply

there is maximum gas supply

there is minimum gas supply

LIGHTING THE BURNERS

• For easier lighting, proceed before putting a pan
on the pan support.

Push the electric ignition push button which is marked

by a little spark ( ).

At the same time, turn the relevant control knob
anticlockwise to maximum position and keep it pushed
down for about 5 seconds. This will allow the
"thermocouple" (Fig. 1 lett. D) to be heated and the
safety device to be switched off, otherwise the gas
supply would be interrupted.
Then, check the flame is regular and adjust it as
required.
If you cannot light the flame even after several
attempts, check the "cap" (Fig. 1 lett. A) and the
"crown" (Fig. 1 lett. B) are in the correct position.
To put the flame out, turn the knob to the symbol z.

• Always turn the flame down or put it out before
taking the pans off the burner.

USING THE HOB CORRECTLY

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, it is strongly
recommended that you use only pots and pans with a
bottom fitting the size of the burner used, so that flame
will not spread beyond the bottom of the vessel (see the
table beside).
It is also advisable, as soon as a liquid starts boiling, to
turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
simmering.

• Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.

Carefully supervise cookings with fats or oil,
since these types of foodstuff can result in a fire,

if over-heated.

2. Cleaning and Maintenance

• Disconnect the appliance from the electrical
supply, before carrying out any cleaning or

manteinance work.

Wash the enamelled components with warm soapy
water. Never use abrasive cleaners
Frequently wash the "caps" and the "crowns" with hot
soapy water, carefully taking away any built-up of food.
Carefully wash the stainless steel components with
water, then wipe them dry with a soft cloth.
The pan supports are dishwasher proof.
If the marks are particularly difficult to remove, use
common non-abrasive cleaners or specific products.
Never use steel wool pads or acids.
In models provided with electric ignition, this feature
is obtained through a ceramic "candle" and a metal
electrode (Fig. 1 - lett. C). Keep these components well
clean, to avoid difficult lighting, and check that the
burner crown holes (Fig. 1 - lett. B) are not obstructed.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

Periodically ask your local Service Centre to check the
conditions of the gas supply pipe and the pressure
adjuster, if fitted.
To ensure the good operation of the hob and its safety
features, it is necessary that the taps are periodically
lubricated.

zz

zz

z The appliance must be electrically disconnected

before all interventions. If any electric supply to
the appliance is required to carry out the work,
ensure all the necessary precautions are followed.

IMPORTANT - To ensure a correct operation, a saving

of energy and the long-life of the appliance, the feeding
pressure of the appliance must correspond to the
recommended values.

The adjustable connection is fixed to the comprehensive
ramp by means of a threaded nut G 1/2". Interpose the
sealing between the components as shown in Fig. 3.
Screw the parts without forcing, adjust the connection in
the required direction and tighten everything.
The adjustable connection allows the feeding pipe to be
situated in the site purposefully allocated on the side of
the protection box of the hob itself (Fig. 4). This
connection allows the overall dimensions of the hob
plus the fedding pipe to be contained into a depth of 30
mm.

IMPORTANT - When the final connection has been
made, it is essential that a thorough leak test is carried
out on the hob and installation. Use some soapy water,

never a flame.

The appliance is designed to be connected to 230 V
monophase electricity supply.

The connection must be carried out in compliance with
the laws and regulations in force.

Before the appliance is connected:

1) check that the main fuse and the domestic installation

can support the load (see the rating label);

2) check that the power supply is properly earthed in

compliance with the current rules;

3) check the socket or the double pole switch used for

the electrical connection can be easily reached with
the appliance built in the forniture unit.

The appliance is supplied with a connection cable. This
has to be provided with a proper plug, able to support the
load marked on the identification plate. To connect the
plug to the cable, follow the recommendation given in
Fig. 5. The plug has to be fitted in a proper socket.
If connecting the appliance directly to the electric
system, it is necessary that you install a double pole
switch between the appliance and the electricity supply,
with a minimum gap of 3 mm between the switch contacts
and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance
with the current rules.
The connection cable has to be placed in order that, in
each part, it cannot reach a temperature 90 °C higher
than the room temperature.
The brown coloured phase cable (fitted in the terminal
block contact marked with "L") must always be connected
to the network phase.

REPLACEMENT OF THE VOLTAGE CABLE

The connection of the voltage cable to the appliance's
terminal block is of type "Y". This means that its
replacement requires the specific equipment of a
technician.
In this case, only cable type H05V2V2-F T90 must be
used. The cable section must be suitable to the voltage
and the working temperature.
The yellow/green earth wire must be approximately 2
cm. longer than the phase wires (Fig. 5).

To open the terminal block and reach the terminals,
proceed as follows:

z insert the point of a screwdriver into the visible

protrunding part of the terminal block;

z exert a light pressure and lift (Fig. 6)

INJECTORS REPLACEMENT

• Remove the pan supports.

• Remove the burner's caps and crowns.

• With a socket spanner 7 unscrew and remove the
injectors (Fig. 7), and replace them with the ones
required for the type of gas in use (see table 2).

• Reassemble the parts, following the same procedu­re backwards.

• Replace the rating label (placed near the gas supply
pipe) with the relevant one for the new type of gas
supply. You can find this label in the package of the
injectors supplied with the appliance.

Should the feeding gas pressure be different or
variable compared with the required pressure, an
appropriate pressure adjuster must be fitted on the gas
supply pipe, in compliance with the rules in force.

These hobs can be inserted in a built-in kitchen unit
whose depth is between 550 and 600 mm. The hobs
dimensions are shown in Fig. 9.

INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY

These hobs can be installed in a kitchen unit with an
opening for insertion whose dimensions are shown in
Fig. 10.

Carry out the building in of the hob as follows:

• put the relevant sealings, supplied with the hob, on

the edges of the cut out, taking care that the sealings
meet without overlapping;

• place the hob in the cut out, taking care of its

centring;

• fix the hob with the relevant screws (Fig. 11). The

traction of the screws is able to trace the sealing, any
excess of which can then be easily removed.
