SECTION 1 - GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The G1478 stockpot stove accommodates a single
pan. It comprises a double burner arrangement with a
heat input capacity of 14.65kW (50,000 btu/hr).

The burner is controlled by a single combined ON/
OFF gas tap, supported by a pilot burner and flame
failure thermocouple.

The unit is manually lit with a taper.

SECTION 3 - COOKING HINTS
Boiling

The appliance has been CE-marked to accommodate
pan sizes up to 680mm diameter.

Avoid overfilling pans as this practise may result in
them boiling over. When boiling is achieved,
simmering can be maintained by turning gas down
to low flame position.

The fastest heat-up time is achieved at full flame
setting. The most efficient use of energy is achieved
at approximately the half way position between the
high and low flame settings.

Exact positions vary according to pan size.

SECTION 4 - CLEANING and MAINTENANCE

It is advisable to wipe the unit down after use,
preferably while it is still warm. The pan support and
burners may be cleaned with a soft brush.

After cleaning, rinse with clean water and dry.

Important Note

Do not use proprietary cleaners on the surfaces of the
appliance. Especially those which have a high caustic
content.

This is particularly important when the unit is hot.
Such cleaners can cause serious damage or
discolouration, therefore only a soap or detergent
solution should be used.
