Electrical requirements

Any permanent electrical installation must comply with the latest I.E.E. Regulations and local Electricity Board regulations. For your own safety this should be undertaken by a qualified electrician, e.g. your local Electricity Board, or a contractor who is on the roll of the National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting (NICEIC).

Electrical connectionsElectrical connections

Electrical connections

This hob is designed to be connected to a 230 V 50 Hz AC electrical supply. Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that indicated on the hob rating plate. The rating plate is located on the bottom of the hob. A copy is attached on the back cover of this book. The hob is supplied with a 3 core flexible supply cable. This has to be provided with a proper plug, able to support the load marked on the identification plate. The plug has to be fitted in a proper socket. In the event of having to change the fuse, a 3amp ASTA approved (BS 1362) fuse must be used.

"

Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason, the wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Green and Yellow - Earth Blue - Neutral Brown - Live

— Connect the green and yellow (earth) wire to the

terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter

'E' or the earth symbol

or coloured green and

yellow.

— Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in

the plug which is marked with the letter 'N' or coloured black.

— Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal in

the plug which is marked with the letter 'L' or coloured red.

Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray strands of wire present and the cable clamp must be secure over the outer sheath.

A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of safely.

ect use of the hob

To ensure maximum burner efficiency and lower gas

consumption

, you should only use pots and pans with a flat

bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table).

If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the recommended size, the flame will spread beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to overheat.

Pots must never be placed onto the control zones.

Always turn the flame down or off before removing pots from the burners.

Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated splashes could easily ignite.

For an easier ignition of the burner, light it before placing the pan on the pan support.

Unstable or misshapen pans should not be used on the hob as unstable pans can cause an accident by tipping or spillage.

It is advisable to cook with lids on.

By using a pressure cooker you will obtain further energy-saving and shorter cooking times.

As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid simmering.

Avoid cooking with potstones, earthenware pots or cast iron plates. Also, avoid using aluminiun foil for protecting the top during operation.

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the hob from the electricity supply and wait until it has cooled down.

This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or with a steam cleaning machine.

The hob topThe hob top

The hob top

Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung

out in warm water to which a little washing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the following:

- household detergent and bleaches;

- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;

- steel wool pads;

- bath/sink stain removers. Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is recommended that proper cleaning product is used.

If scratches or cracks are noticed on the glass top, immediately disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply to avoid the risk of electrical shock. Then, contact your local Service Force Centre and avoid using the appliance until it has been repaired.

Pan supportsPan supports

Pan supports

The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If washing them by hand, take care when drying them as the enamelling process occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary, remove stubborn stains using a paste cleaner.

Pay attention when replacing the pan supports in order to avoid scratching the glass hob top.

The burnersThe burners

The burners

The cap and the crown of each burner are secured with two screws. To separate the two pieces, lift the cap, turn it upside down, then undo the two fixing screws as shown in the diagram. After a thoroughly cleaning, reassemble the two parts and refit the cap in its correct position on the burner.

Frequently wash the burner caps and crowns using hot soapy

water and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are particularly difficult to remove.

For stubborn stains, use normal non-abrasive cleaners or specific products available on the market. NEVER use scouring pads, steel wool or acids for cleaning.
