GAS HOB CONTROL
Gas flow to burners (gas burner capacity) is
regulated by means of knobs (Figure 2). The
knobs, in turn, are controlled by cocks.
Symbols “Max. flame” , “Min. flame” and
“Flame OFF” are on the hob, close to cont-
rol knobs. Close to the symbol “Max. flame”
there is the “Ignition sparks” symbol which
means that the appliance is equipped with an
automated system of electrical ignition.
Attention! Any operating position of a
control knob shall be selected between
“Max. flame” and “Min. flame” . Between these positions one can smoothly
adjust continuous and stable supply of
gas to gas burners of the hob. In no circumstances select an operating positi-
on between “Max. flame” and “Flame
OFF” .
For a more convenient flame control ignite gas
prior to putting the dishware onto the grid.
Any model described herein is equipped with
electrically-ignited gas burners, but some models have, in addition to that, a gas escape prevention system (alternatively, it is called “gas
control”). Figure 3 presents a general view of a
disassembled gas burner. Its main components
as follows can be highlighted:

ELECTRICALLY-IGNITED
GAS BURNERS
These gas burners do not have Position 4, as
shown in Figure 3.
To ignite a gas burner, press the
selected gas burner control knob,
turn it counterclockwise to the positi-
on of the symbol “Max. flame” that
corresponds to maximum gas supply.
Do not try to turn the knob without
pressing it for this may result in damage
to the gas valve.
To ensure stable gas inflammation, press
and hold the control knob within 3 seconds
approximately. The inflammation process is
attended by typical clicks caused by electric
discharges within the igniters (Pos. 3, Figure
3). Upon gas inflammation, select any position of the control knob between symbols
“Max. flame” and “Min. flame” to have a
flame of desired intensity. If you have failed to
ignite the gas burner, try it again proceeding
in the same way.
If the igniter is contaminated, electrical ignition may not function properly. Therefore, it
is highly recommended to keep the hob as
clean as possible. Use a small brush to clean
the igniter, as it may be required. Please bear
in mind that it is not at all necessary to apply
much force for cleaning. If, for some reason
or other, electric power is not supplied or
is cut o, you can ignite the gas burner the
old-fashioned way – just lighting and setting
a match. For that, press the control knob of
the selected gas burner, turn it countercloc-
kwise up to the position “Max. flame” .
To turn o gas supply, rotate the control knob
to the right, up to the position “Flame OFF”
(See Figure 2).
ATTENTION! Electrical ignition process
shall not last longer than 15 sec.
If you have failed to ignite the gas burner
after this time, or the flame has accidentally extinguished, wait a minute prior to
trying again.
If you have failed to ignite the gas burner
upon several attempts, please check the
position of the gas burner cap (Pos. 1, Figure 3) and flame spreader (Pos. 2, Figure
3).
Pay attention to the following:
If the gas pressure of the gas supply network
of your location is above the standard one, it
will be easier to ignite the gas burner with a
lesser volume of gas to be supplied. In this
connection we recommend you to ignite the
gas burner prior to putting the dishware onto
the hob. We also recommend you to select
the control knob position between “Max. fla-
me” and “Min. flame” or bring it to the
“Min. flame” position.

HOW TO CHOOSE A GAS BURNER
FOR FOOD PREPARATION
Symbols printed close to the control knobs
(to the left and above) of the gas burners (Figure 2) show which knob regulates a specific
gas burner.
The gas burner controlled by a specific knob
is marked with a darkened section.
To ensure decreased gas consumption and
higher eiciency of gas burners, use flat dishware the size of which corresponds to that
of gas burners. Flame intensity and sizes of
dishware shall be chosen in such a way that
the flame does not reach the side walls of the
dishware. Table 1 presents recommended
use of gas burners depending upon the dishware sizes.
Use the dishware with covers – this would
significantly reduce the cooking time.
Upon boiling, reduce the flame intensity so
that it can be enough to keep the food boiling
and you do not have to move or take o the
cover.
USE OF SUPPORT GRIDS
The support grids are designed to ensure horizontal and stable position of dishware above the gas burners, for more convenient and
safer operation of hobs. Every time you use
your hob, make sure that the support grids
are stable. Always check proper positioning
of rubber end pieces beneath, take care to
ensure they are not damaged.

Note:
minimum distance between the kitchen
hood and gas hob shall be 750 mm.
Installation area
The gas equipment shall be installed, where
natural air flow is available required for gas
combustion (standards UNI-CIG 7129 and
7131). At that, one shall observe all the norms
and regulations that apply to installation of
household gas-fired appliances in a country,
where they are purchased and used.
The gas hob may be built-in into any piece
of kitchen furniture able to resist high temperatures. The size of a recess in the surface
of that furniture piece (tabletop), as well as
minimum distances between the rear part
and surfaces adjoining aside, are shown in
Figure 5. Figure 6 presents a method to attach the hob to the tabletop.

120 min
Please keep in mind:
To ensure suicient air circulation above the
gas ob, it is required to keep a minimum distance of 10 mm to any drawer, any partition
wall, or any oven that may be located beneath
the hob.
Should the as hob be installed combined with
an oven, you have to follow the guidelines of
the oven manufacturer which is to ensure
required ventilation as shown in Figure 7. At
that, gaps “C” and “E” shall make 30 mm at
least.
Any way, if you are going to use a gas-fired
oven, both parts of the equipment shall be
connected to the mains and gas pipeline
separately.
Gas hob attachment
to the tabletop
Cut out a recess in your tabletop on the basis of dimensions shown in Figure 5.
Wood fibres used for manufacture of tabletops can quickly swell if exposed to moisture. In this connection, a special adhesive
or sealant shall be applied onto the side
surface of the recess cut to protect it from
vapors or moisture condensed on the underside of the tabletop.
Prior to installation of the hob into a recess
prepared (Figure 6), it is necessary to attach
a self-adhesive sealing gasket “C” onto the
lower edge of the hob. The gasket shall be
uniformly attached along the entire perimeter, without breaking or overlapping that.
For that, you should remove support grids,
gas burner cap and flame spreaders.

Then, press on it to make it stably rest upon
the piece of furniture. Have someone to assist you – in that case the work will be more
convenient and you will not move the sealing gasket.
Attach the hob to the tabletop, using clamps
“A” and screws “B” (included).
If the sealing gasket “C” sits properly, it will
provide complete protection against penetration of liquids under the hob. This is particularly topical for cleaning and care.
Fig. 7.
Connection to a gas supply system
These works can only be performed
by a representative of a state-run gas
service in your location. An act shall
be drawn up to confirm performance of
the works, on the company's letterhead
and in two copies, one for each party.
The appliance shall be connected to a gas
supply system according to valid norms and
regulations of the country, where a hob is
installed by qualified experts. At the end of a
supply pipeline there must be a safety valve
installed.
The appliance was subject to factory acceptance tests and set to that type of gas which
is indicated in the manufacturer’s plate. That
plate is on the rear panel of the hob, close to a
connecting gas pipe line. Make sure that gas
being supplied corresponds to that indicated
in the manufacturer’s plate.
12
If not, follow the instructions from “Setting to
various types of gases”.
To ensure maximum eiciency and minimum
gas consumption, make sure that gas supply
pressure has parameters as follows:
Main pipeline gas: G20 - 2,0 kPa;
Liquefied gas: G30 - 2,8-3,0 kPa,
G31 - 3,7 kPa,
(attention: these values may slightly vary).
Page 15
HOBS
If gas pressure parameters dier from values
recommended (or pressure is subject to fluctuations), there must be a pressure regulating
device to be installed at the intake pipeline.
Connect the appliance to a local gas supply
system, using a rigid metal pipe and pipe
connections, or a flexible pipe made of stainless steel (pipes of both types shall conform
to valid standards). Make sure that flexible
metal pipes do not come into contact with
movable parts. They also must be neither damaged nor squeezed.
The outer thread size of the connecting gas
pipe line is ½’’. Avoid any force impact upon
the gas hob when connecting it.
Attention!
Upon completion of installation, it is a
must to check leak tightness of connections, using soap solution!
DO NOT CHECK LEAK TIGHTNESS OF
CONNECTIONS USING A FLAME!

SETTING TO VARIOUS TYPES
OF GASES
If the type of gas you are going to use diers
from that your gas hob is set to, you will have
to replace gas nozzles. For that, do the following:
• Remove the support grids; take out flame spreaders and gas burner caps.
• Unscrew “J” gas nozzles (Figure 8), using
an Allen wrench, and replace them with
appropriate ones (See Table “Diameters
of gas nozzles, mm”). The value of the diameter is marked in the upper part of the
nozzle and indicated in mm.
• Carefully assemble all the components
of the hob in reversed order.
Reminder: if gas pressure diers from
that in the manufacturer’s plate you will
have to install an appropriate pressure
regulating device according to local standards of use of gas supply systems.
Adjustment of air flow to gas burners
Not required.
Fig. 8
Minimum flame adjustment
This adjustment is required upon replacement of gas nozzles, or whenever necessary.
The sequence of actions is as follows:
• Ignite the gas burner; turn the control
knob to the position “Min. flame”.
• Take o the control knob.
• Insert a small-sized screwdriver with a
flat shrank into the valve core (see Figure
10). In valves equipped with a safety device of “gas control”, the adjusting screw
may be outside the valve core.
• Unscrew to increase the flame, and
screw in to decrease it. The flame has
been adjusted properly, if the flame is
uniform over the whole circumference
of the gas burner, and its height makes
approximately 3–4 mm.
• With liquefied gas used, the adjusting
screw must be screwed in all the way.
• Make sure that the flame does not extinguish with rapid changes from “Max.
flame” to “Min. flame” and vice versa.
14
Page 17
HOBS
• If the “gas control” safety system fails to
activate with a minimum volume of gas
to be supplied to a gas burner, increase
that volume using the adjusting screw.
• Check whether the adjustment procedure has been carried out in a proper way:
let the gas burner operate for several minutes. Increase the minimum, if the flame
extinguishes.
CLEANING AND CARE
Before you begin care or cleaning, disconnect your hob from the mains and let it cool
down. To keep the hob in good condition, clean it after each use.
Enameled parts
All the enameled parts shall be only cleaned
with a sponge and soapy water, or specially
developed commercially available non-abrasives. Do never use steel wools, abrasives or
stain removers for baths or wash sinks.
Prior to installation, dry out the washed parts
or wipe them dry.
Support grids
To clean them, use a sponge, water and soap.
Clean them only when cold. Do not use any
abrasives or cutting tools. The grid size enables to wash them in a dishwasher.
Gas burners
Gas burners consisting of two parts (cap +
flame spreader) can be removed, cleaned
and washed for which appropriate cleaning
agents must be used.
Models with automated ignition systems
have ceramic igniters within an area of gas
burners. Inside these igniters there are metal
electrodes (“E” elements in Figure 9).
Fig. 9
Stainless steel surface
Stainless steel may darken due to long-term
contact with water or aggressive cleaning
agents to contain sodium hydroxide or phosphorus. Therefore its condition must be focus of
much attention of yours.
To clean a surface made of stainless steel use a
wet cloth and special cleaning agents. Upon rinsing, wipe it dry with a piece of chamois-leather
or soft cloth.
For maximum eect we recommend you to use a
special, branded professional agent for stainless
steel care.
Those models that are equipped with the
“gas control” system” also have thermoelements within an area of gas burners (“T”
elements in Figure 9). These are sensors of
safety valves.
15
Page 18
Installation and operation instructions
HOBS
To ensure reliable operation of both gas burners automated ignition and “gas control”
systems, clean the igniter and thermoelement of the hob at regular intervals, proceeding with extreme caution.
Attention!
To avoid damage to the electric ignition system, do not use it with the flame
spreaders removed
Upon cleaning and washing the gas burner
elements dry them out and place them
back, carefully and properly.
PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE
AND REPAIRS
It is required, on a time basis, to carry out tests
of the gas pipe line to check its integrity and
eiciency, as well gas pressure regulating device tests (if installed). Should any failures be
detected, please contact experts and demand
complete replacement of defective or faulty
parts, not just their repairs.
To provide for proper functioning of the gas
hob, you have to regularly lubricate valves to
adjust gas supply to gas burners.
The valves shall be regularly lubricated
by qualified professionals of the gas service who are also able to solve problems
related to failures and defects detected.
Before shipping to a customer, the appliance
is subject to factory acceptance tests and settings. These works are fulfilled by experienced
specialists to make the equipment operation
more eective. Repairs or settings that thereafter may be required shall be performed
with care and caution.
16
In this connection we recommend you to
always contact a sales agency where you
have purchased the appliance, or to the nearest service center. State the kind of failure,
equipment model and serial number of the
product. This information can be found in the
manufacturer’s plate.
