good condition or installing a cooker hood with a venting hose.
When using the hob for a long period of time, the ventilation should be improved, by
opening a window or increasing the extractor speed.

Installation
Any gas installation must be carried out by a registered CORGI installer, and in
accordance with existing rules and regulations.
The relevant instructions are to be found in the second section of this manual.
Please, ensure that, once the hob is installed, it is easily accessible for the engineer in the
event of a breakdown.
WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED
Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any protective materials, which
were put on in the factory.

Operation
Hob burners control knobs
The symbols on the knobs mean that :
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.
To light a burner, turn the relevant knob anticlockwise to
maximum position ( ), then push it down to ignite the
burner. Upon ignition, adjust the flame as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero,
and try again.
When switching on the mains, after installation or a power
cut, it is quite normal for the spark generator to be activated automatically.
In the absence of electricity, ignition can occur without the electrical device; in this case, approach
the burner with a flame, push the relevant knob down and turn it anti-clockwise until it reaches the
“maximum” position.
Burner minimum maximum
Triple-crown (ultra-rapid) 160 mm 260 mm
Large (rapid) 160 mm 240 mm
Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm 220 mm
Small (auxiliary) 80 mm 160 mm
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
simmering.
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the recommended size, the flame will spread
beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to overheat.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated splashes could
easily ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your local Service Force
Centre.
Using the Wok Stand
A wok stand is provided to enable you to use a round
bottomed wok on the hob. The wok stand must only be
used on the central burner, and should not be used with
any other type of wok or pan. When fitting the wok stand,
ensure the recesses in the frame fit securely onto the
bars of the pan supports, as shown in figure 3.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the
hob from the electricity supply.
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage can be removed more easily
than if it is left to cool.
The Hob Top
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth
well wrung out in warm water to which a little
washing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use
of the following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick
saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, the following products are recommended:
- For stainless steel hobs use a proprietary stainless steel cleaner.
- For other hobs use Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend.

Pan Supports
When washing the pan supports by hand, take care when drying them as the enamelling
process occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary, remove stubborn stains using a
paste cleaner.
The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.
Wash the burner caps and crowns using hot soapy water, and remove marks with a mild
paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caution,
if the marks are particularly difficult to remove.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Ignition electrode
The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic electrode and a metal electrode (Fig.
2 - lett. C). Keep these components very clean, to avoid difficult lighting, and check that
the burner crown holes (Fig. 2 - lett. B) are not obstructed.

Something Not Working?
If the hob is not working correctly, please carry out the following checks before contacting
your local Service Force Centre.
SYMPTOM
There is no spark when lighting the gas
SOLUTION
Check that the unit is plugged in and the
electrical supply is switched on
Check that the RCCB has not tripped (if fitted)
Check the mains fuse has not blown
Check the burner cap and crown have been
replaced correctly, e.g. after cleaning.
The gas ring burns unevenly
Check the main jet is not blocked and the
burner crown is clear of food particles.
Check the burner cap and crown have been
replaced correctly, e.g. after cleaning.
If after all these checks, your hob still does not operate correctly, contact your local
Service Force Centre.
Please note that it will be necessary to provide proof of purchase for any inguarantee service calls.
In-guarantee customers should ensure that the above checks have been made as the
engineer will make a charge if the fault is not a mechanical or electrical breakdown.
