Using the hob
Adjust the burner flame so that it does
not extend over the pan base.
Pans
Use pans with a flat base of mini-
mum 120mm / 4 ins diameter and
maximum 250mm / 10 ins diameter which are stable in use.
Do not use double pans, rim based
pans, old misshapen pans or any
pan which is unstable when placed
on a flat surface.
Position pans over the centre of the
burners, resting on the pan supports. If positioned off centre, smaller pans may be unstable.
Do not use griddle plates on this
appliance, as this may be hazardous.

feet are in place, to prevent instability.
The hob must only be operated when
both pan supports are correctly positioned.
To save gas
•Always position pans centrally
over the burner.
•Use the size of pan most suited to
the size of the burner - ie; larger
pans on the rear burners, smaller
pans on the front burners.
•Adjust the flames so that they do
not lick up the sides of the pan.
•Put lids on saucepans and only
heat the amount of liquid you
need.
•When liquids boil, reduce the control setting to maintain a simmer.
•Consider the use of a pressure
cooker for the cooking of a complete meal.
•Potatoes and vegetables will cook
quicker if chopped into smaller
pieces.

Always let the hob cool before
cleaning.
Some cooking operations generate a
considerable amount of grease. This,
combined with spillage, can become a
hazard if allowed to accumulate on
the hob through lack of cleaning. In
extreme cases this may amount to misuse of the appliance & could invalidate your guarantee.
Do not use caustic, corrosive or abrasive cleaning products, coarse wire
wool or any hard implements, as they
will damage the surfaces.
All parts of the hob can be safely
cleaned with a cloth wrung out in hot
soapy water.
Any brownish coloured marks on the
burners are carbon deposits or fat stains,
which can be removed by gently rubbing with a soapy pad.
Important: The burner caps and
heads must
be repositioned correctly
so that they sit squarely onto the hob
as shown below.
This is particularly important with stainless steel models as failure to reposition the caps correctly may result in
discolouration of the stainless steel
around the burners.
Burner caps and heads
Important: Allow burners to cool
before cleaning.
Caution: Hotplate burners can be
damaged by soaking, automatic dishwashers (or dishwasher powders / liquids), caustic pastes, hard implements,
coarse wire wool, and abrasive cleaning pastes.
Clean with a moist soapy pad.
For the burners to work safely, the slots
in the burner head where the flames
burn need to be kept clear of deposit.
Clean with a nylon brush, rinse, & dry
thoroughly.

Important Information
It is important when installing front
control gas hobs, that the work top
cut out is the same as is quoted in
this installation manual. If the cut out
is too large, then batons must be fitted to the front, rear and sides - to
correct the discrepancy and ensure
the correct fit. Please ensure that if
batons are fitted they are level with
the top surface of the work top
Please ensure that the seal for the
hob has full contact with the work
top surface.
There are two ways to install
the clamps, depending on the thick-
ness of the work top, please measure
the thickness of your work top and
ensure that the correct method is
used. Both methods are detailed in
the installation manual.
Failure to follow these instructions can
lead to exessive force being applied
to the basetray, which results in the
clearence between the control knob
and the hob top pressing being
reduced. This can effect the operation of the gas control, and the ignition.

Installation advice - cabinetry
Dealing with sides, cross-rails
and back-panels in cabinetry
Depending on the cabinets, the worktop thickness and the hob positioning,
it is possible for the hob base, the
clamp brackets and/or the gas connection to interfere with parts of the
cabinet. These can be dealt with as
follows:
Cabinet sides
If the hob is to be installed across the
top of two cabinet housing units, then
the base of the hob may interfere with
the sides of these units. It will be necessary to cut away the top of the unit
sides locally to clear the hob, clamp
brackets and/or gas connection.
Cross-Rails
1. Interference with hob base
If there are any cross-rails which
obstruct the hob base by running
across the worktop cutout, they can
simply be removed or locally cutaway to allow the hob to be
installed, depending on the particular installation. Any modifications
must ensure that the strength of the
cabinet is maintained.
2. Interference with clamp brackets
If there are any cross-rails which
prevent the clamps from being
positioned on the front or rear
edges of the hob, then they can be
removed or locally cut-away
around the brackets to allow the
brackets to be installed.
Any modifications must ensure that
the strength of the cabinet is maintained.
Back-panel
1. Interference with clamp brackets
If the cabinet has a back-panel
which prevents the clamps from
being positioned on the rear edge
of the hob, then this panel can be
completely removed or locally cutaway to allow the brackets to be
installed.
2. Interference or restriction of gas
connection
If the cabinet has a back-panel
which interferes with the position
of the gas supply to the hob, then
the panel can be completely
removed or locally cut-away to
allow connection to the gas supply.
16
Page 17
Alternative clamp positions
If the front and rear clamp positions
are problematic, alternative positions
can be used on the sides of the hob,
dependant on the particular installation.
These positions will require clearance
from any cabinet sides and may effect
how tightly the hob will meet the worktop.
Stone (Granite or equivalent)
worktops
Depending on the type of worktop
being used, there may or may not be
any backing material to screw the
clamp screws into.
1. If the worktop is a composite type
(backed with MDF or similar) there
may be enough backing to screw
directly into. This will depend on
the worktop thickness and backing
thickness and will have to be
assessed at the installation. In this
case, install the hob as for a standard worktop.
2. If there is insufficient backing material to screw into, or if the worktop
is completely solid in construction,
then it will be necessary to glue a
strip of wood, MDF, fibreboard or
similar to the underside of the worktop, along the front and rear edges
of the cutout. Use a strong, proprietary adhesive to bond these strips
and allow to cure before attempting to clamp the hob into position.
17
Page 18
Connect gas hob to gas supply
The inlet is at the rear RHS of the hob.
The hob may be connected to the gas
supply either by rigid pipework or flexible connection.
Flexible connections
Use a 900mm - 1125mm length of
flexible connector. Ensure that the
hose is installed hanging freely downwards, is not trapped, is not subjected
to undue forces and is not supported
at the bottom by a horizontal surface.
Natural Gas - Flexible connections
should comply with BS669, latest edition.
LP Gas - For flexible connections use
a bayonet type hose, suitable for use
on LP gas up to 50 mbar pressure rise
and 70˚C temperature rise. The flexible hose should be coloured black
with a red stripe, band or label. If in
doubt, contact your supplier.
The installation must ensure that the
flexible tube cannot come into contact
with movable parts of the housing unit
(eg; a drawer) and does not pass
through any space susceptible to becoming
congested.
Make sure the appliance is gas
sound & all components are
operating correctly.
Connect to the electricity supply
Unless this appliance is supplied with a
fitted plug, it must be connected by a
competent person, using fixed wiring
via a double pole switched fused spur
outlet, with a contact separation of 3mm
at all poles.
Connect the mains lead wires to the
terminals:
The blue wire must be connected to the
OAD
L
terminal marked N (Neutral)
or
coloured black. The brown wire must
be connected to the terminal marked L
(Live) LOAD or coloured red.
The green/yellow coloured wire must
be connected to the terminal marked
E(Earth) or coloured green.Warning: this appliance must be
earthed.
The fused spur must be accessible after
installation.
If the supply cord is damaged, obtain
a special cord from the Customer Care
Helpline, which must be fitted by a
qualified person.
