Operating - Gas Cooktop

LIGHTING BURNERS – simply press the knob in, turn anti-clockwise to maximum, the electronic
igniter will spark and ignite the burner. Check that the gas has been lit; if the burner fails to
ignite repeat the above process.

For models with Flame Failure follow the above procedure but keep the knob fully depressed for up to
10 seconds after ignition to allow the safety to lock in. Check that the gas has been lit; if the burner fails
to ignite repeat the above process. If the burner still fails to ignite, a match or lighting device can be used,
but care must be taken. Keep igniters dry. If the problem persists, contact Eurolinx Pty Ltd or their
appointed agent for service.

PRACTICAL HINTS FOR USE

WARNING

Do not use pots which exceed the width of the trivet (the trivet is the frame with fingers that
the pot sits on). If pot size exceeds the edge of the trivet, flames could cause damage to work
surfaces either side of the burner. Do not use pots which are too small for the burner size,
they become unstable on the trivet.

Always use a vessel for cooking that is appropriate in size for the size of burner. Never use
pots that are too small or too large. For wok cooking it is recommended that a domestic size
wok, no larger than 400mm in diameter be used.

Always use the small pot trivet for pots with a base smaller than 100mm.
Use a strong flame to bring liquids to boil, seal meat and generally for all food which must be
cooked rapidly i.e. when using a wok.

Use a low flame for sauces or stews.

Do not cook food over too strong a heat. Boiling food fast does not cook any faster but
violently stirs up the food causing it to lose flavour.

Tepanyaki Plate (Fry Top)

A = cooking tray
B = drip tray
C = exhaust flue for combustion fumes

The Fry-Top is composed of a special stainless steel plate (8mm thick), specially designed to have
temperatures evenly distributed over the whole surface so that you can utilise the complete
cooking surface. The plate also has hygienic advantages.

Another advantage is the high heat accumulation of the plate, with very low heat loss. To use
the appliance, light the flame below the plate by means of the corresponding knob (see
“Lighting the burners”) and ensure that the flame is burning.
Leave the knob in this position for about 10 minutes at the most and wait for the plate to heat
up. Once this period has elapsed, the plate is ready to start cooking.
By adjusting the flame, there is no limit to your culinary imagination. If you turn the knob to
minimum, you can do slow cooking or types of cooking in which you want to maintain the
organic properties of the foods. Higher temperatures are suitable for cooking meat, fish and
vegetables.

The Fry-Top plate is ideal for Japanese Tepanyaki cooking: the special lid needed for this type of
Oriental cooking is available as an optional accessory.
Some models are supplied with the spatula shown in above, which is useful for both cooking
and for cleaning the plate.
