1. Important Notes

About Use

The appliance is intended solely for use in the household and must not be put to any other uses.

Use the appliance to prepare meals only. It must not be used to heat up the room in which it is installed.

Never allow children to play with the appliance. Do not let adults or children operate the appliance

unsupervised: – if they are mentally or physically unable to use

the appliance safely and correctly

– if they don’t have the knowledge and

experience to use the appliance safely and correctly.

Use of a gas cooker generates heat and humidity in the room where it is installed. This is why atten tion must be paid to good kitchen ventilation. The natural ventilation openings must be kept unobstructed. Prolonged use of the appliance with several or all rings may call for additional venti lation such as opening a window or a door, or stronger air extraction by an extractor hood.

To guarantee good combustion, the room in which the appliance is installed must have a minimum volume of 35 m

and must possess a door that opens outdoors or a window that can be opened.

Keep the ventilation openings at the back of the appliance free at all times.

Only ever use the burners after placing pots and pans on them. Do not heat up any empty pots or pans.

It is not permitted to use roasting pans, frying pans or grill stones heated simultaneously by several burners because the resulting heat build-up may damage the appliance.

Pots with a diameter of less than 90 mm or more than 280 mm / 320 mm for the large (WOK) burner should not be used. When using large pots, pay attention to keeping to a minimum distance of 50 mm between the cooking vessel and combustible surroundings.

Switch the burners to the low setting whenever you remove pots or pans briefly. In this way, you reduce the risk of burns when working next to naked flames; you also save gas and reduce pollution.

Do not place any hot pots or pans on the stainless steel frame. The heat might change the colour of the steel.

Whenever the gas hob is fitted under an extractor hood, always cover the rings with pots or pans. Otherwise, parts of the extractor hood may become damaged by the extreme heat development or grease residues in the filter may ignite.

Ensure an adequate supply of air when using an extractor hood operating in the extraction mode

The appliance cannot be used during a power failure.

In the event of malfunctions, please inform your specialist dealer or your nearest Gaggenau aftersales service.

3. Operating Principle

The gas hob features two normal burners, two large burners and a Wok burner.

The appliance features one-hand operation, flame detection and automatic re-ignition. The ignition is activated when the control knob is turned.

Should the flame go out during operation, the appliance will automatically re-ignite the burner.

During a disturbance, the appliance will cut off the gas supply as a safety measure, to prevent unburned gas escaping.

The flame setting is infinitely variable between high and low.

The specified rated load is defined by installation of the fixed nozzles.

The gas hob is converted to a different gas type by nozzle replacement (full and low-burning nozzles) (see nozzle table on page 18-20).

Switching on

• Place a suitable pot or a pan on the corresponding cooking position.

• Press down the control knob for the corresponding cooking position and turn it to the required position between the and symbols. The burner ignites automatically.

• When using large pots or pans you should ignite the burner in the low position.

• Every time the gas hob is switched on, the electronics run an auto test. All electrodes fire and the required burner ignites after a few seconds. When switching on further burners, only the corresponding electrode fires.

• When being switched on, a short sound may be heard when the electronic of the gas hob opens the gas supply valve. This is a normal condition.

The flame size can be set continuously between full and low by slowly turning the control knob.

Should the flame go out during operation (e.g. because of a draught), the appliance will automatically re-ignite the burner.

Should the re-ignition be unsuccessful (e.g. burner is soiled by spilled over food or liquid), the gas supply is switched off automatically and a signal is sounded. Turn all control knobs to the OFF position. After the appliance has cooled down sufficiently, check if all the burner parts have been assembled correctly. Check if the burners or the electrodes have been soiled. Note: if a malfunction occurs on one burner, you can continue using the remaining burners, however, you must turn all control knobs to the off-position first, before recommencing.

4. Operation

Only light a burner if all burner parts are dry, and assembled correctly. Otherwise, malfunctions may occur or the appliance may switch off.
