KNOWING YOUR COOKTOP
1. KNOWING YOUR COOKTOP
1.1 Important Points
Thank you for purchasing an excellent product that we are sure will provide many years of great cooking experiences. If
you haven’t had the pleasure of cooking with one of our appliances previously, you may find that it has different features
and characteristics to your last appliance. It is essential you read this operation manual thoroughly to fully understand all
of the various functions and operations. The aim is to encourage you to experiment with your cooking and take full
advantage of the features of your appliance. The key to achieving results that best suit your personal taste is
experimentation.
This manual should be retained for future reference. Should ownership of the appliance be transferred, please ensure that
the manual is also passed onto the new owner.
1.2 Installation Checks and Warnings
In the interests of your safety and the care of your new appliance, please take time to carefully read this manual before
installing and using it. In particular your attention is drawn to the following:–
Incorrect installation of the appliance as a result of not following the detailed specifications can affect performance.
Appliances incorrectly installed may invalidate the warranty and we strongly recommend that the cavity, venting,
wiring and gas connection be prepared as described in the specifications. This is critical to appearance,
performance and safety. For installation details, please refer to Cabinet Installation Instructions.
A licensed electrician and licensed gas fitter with relevant qualifications must perform the electrical and gas work when
installing or servicing the appliance. The supply cable and fuse rating must be suitable for the appliance. You must never
repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the operation manual. For installation
details, please refer to Gas Connection Instructions, and Electrical Connection Instructions.
VENTILATION SLOTS AND AIR VENTS MUST NOT BE COVERED OR OBSTRUCTED IN ANY WAY
INITIAL HEAT UP
Some smoke and smell may be noticed during the initial heat up cycle (see Using the Appliance for the First Time). This
should quickly dissipate. If abnormal levels of smoke are observed (i.e. it is not food that is burning) have the appliance
thoroughly checked.
DON’T USE THE APPLIANCE AS A SPACE HEATER
The appliance must never be used for warming or heating the surrounding room or for drying clothes or textiles or other
items not specifically recommended in the operation manual. Combustible materials or products must never be placed
on or near the appliance.

KNOWING YOUR COOKTOP
DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN ALONE
Children must not be left unsupervised in the area where the appliance is in use. The appliance gets hot during use and
retains heat for some time after being turned off. Children must never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the
appliance.
DO NOT SPRAY AEROSOLS IN THE VICINITY OF THE APPLIANCE WHILST IT IS IN OPERATION
WEAR PROPER APPAREL WHEN USING THE APPLIANCE
Loose fitting, hanging or highly flammable garments (such as synthetics) should never be worn while using the appliance.
USE ONLY DRY POT HOLDERS
Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not allow pot holders to touch hot heating
elements. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth when handling hot cooking utensils.
DON’T STORE FLAMMABLE ITEMS NEAR THE APPLIANCE
Items, particularly flammable materials, must never be stored on or near surface units.
DO NOT USE WATER ON GREASE FIRES
Fats, oils or other substances will ignite if they become too hot. Fires or flames should be smothered using flame proof
material or extinguished using a dry chemical or another suitable fire retardant.
DO NOT USE OVERSIZE COOKWARE OR PLACE COOKWARE OFF-CENTRE OVER BURNERS
Oversize cookware will deflect heat towards the cooktop and bench top surfaces. Cookware with large bases, especially
if placed off-centre over the burners, may cause deterioration of the cooktop and bench top surfaces. Such damage is
not covered under the provisions of the warranty. Follow the illustrations and examples in the Cooktop Cooking instructions.
NEVER USE AN ASBESTOS MAT BETWEEN COOKWARE AND COOKTOP
Use of an asbestos mat is both hazardous and will cause damage to the unit.
SELECT AND USE COOKWARE SUITABLE FOR THE CERAMIC COOKTOP (Ceramic cooktop models only)
Under certain conditions some enamel, copper based and aluminium saucepans can cause deterioration of the cooktop
surface. Stainless steel cookware should not react in this way. Aluminium cookware in particular is not recommended.
ONLY PLACE COOKWARE ON COOKING ZONES OR PAN SUPPORTS
Other surfaces of the appliance, for example trims, are not totally resistant to hard or sharp materials or direct heat and
may be damaged by such use.

1. WARNING: If the surface is cracked, switch off the appliance to avoid the possibility of electric shock.
2. The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.
3. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
1.3 Features and Benefits
Electric cooktop models are elegant and simple to use incorporating quick-light elements for excellent efficiency
and reliability. Individual indicator lights show which element is operating. When the controls are turned off the
indicators flash on models CC605D, CC805D and CC29 to show if residual heat remains in the corresponding
cooking zone. The indicators will stop flashing when the residual heat of the relevant cooking zone surface reduces
to a safe touch temperature. On models CC605E, CC805E and CC29E indicator lights will glow continuously until
the residual heat of the relevant cooking zone surface reduces to a safe touch temperature.
Gas cooktop models incorporate electronic ignition and fast take-off gas burners for effective lighting and heat
production. Both gas models have the option of re-ignition or Flame-Failure-Device control for complete safety.
All pan supports are removable and dishwasher safe.
BBQ grill models utilise volcanic rock for traditional BBQ effect with excellent flavour. Two independent cooking
zones are used to ensure versatile heat distribution. Dual spillage trays (one removable) are used to minimise
smoking and provide for easy cleaning. The grill surface is made of durable cast iron and a stainless steel lid
ensures a neat appearance when the BBQ is not being used.
Cleaning the cooktop is made simple with high quality vitreous enamel, stainless steel and Ceramic glass surfaces.

USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME
2. USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME
After installation remove all notification labels (not gas or electrical warning labels), advertising, tape, packaging,
etc. A quick diluted wash with Ammonia and water should rinse away any adhesive residue. Eucalyptus oil (small
amounts) is also good for removing adhesive residue. Thoroughly rinse cleaned surfaces and wipe them dry using
a clean, soft cloth.
Before using the BBQ grill (CB355 BBQ Grill Model) make sure the volcanic rocks are removed from their
wrapping and place them into the removable grill tray.
Before using the ceramic glass cooktop (ceramic cooktop models only) clean it thoroughly with a suitable cooktop
cleaner (e.g. Hillmark Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner) and rinse with a clean, warm, damp cloth or paper towel. To
avoid cooked on cleaner residue, wipe the glass dry with a soft cloth or paper towel.
NOTE: People with sensitivity to cleaning chemicals must take the necessary precautions. It is recommended that protective
gloves be worn while cleaning the appliance.
2.1 Burning In (CB35 BBQ Grill Model)
Before cooking with the appliance an initial pre-heat is required to burn off the fine oil film used to protect the
elements during shipping. The first time you heat up the elements the oil will be given off as smoke (some smell
may also be noticeable), which is perfectly normal.
Turn the BBQ grill controls to Hi and leave for approximately 10 minutes or until the smoke has disappeared.
After completing the above turn all controls off. The cooktop is now ready for grilling.

3. CONTROL PANEL OPERATION
3.1 Gas Burner Controls (CG Models)
The cooktop burners are ignited by the in-built electronic ignition controls. The controls must be turned anticlockwise to operate and can only be turned clockwise to the off position. Alternatively the burner may be ignited
manually using matches, cooktop gas lighters or similar devices, being careful not to risk injury or damage.
To operate the controls ensure the burners are correctly assembled and positioned over the gas burner outlets
and the pan supports are correctly positioned then:-
a) Start the gas flow by pressing down and turning the control knob corresponding to the burner you wish to
use. Pressing down on the control knob causes the igniter to spark.
NOTE: For models CG29, CG29WOK, CG60WOKFFE, CG90WOKFFE
These units are fitted with Flame Failure Safety Devices. These require the controls to be fully depressed
during ignition to ensure correct operation. The controls should be held fully down for at least 10 seconds
during the ignition and flame establishment period to ensure the valve remains open after the knob is
released.
b) Once the flame is established the knob need no longer be pressed and may be turned to your required
setting.
Check for a clear blue flame without excessive yellow tipping. If burners show any abnormal combustion check
they are correctly located on the burner base. Sometimes burners may not ignite immediately and may seem to
‘‘blow’’ slightly when they do ignite. This is usually due to air in the gas line, which should clear itself.
If, after following the instructions, satisfactory performance cannot be obtained, contact the local gas authority
for advice and assistance.
For minor adjustments see Servicing and Minor Adjustments.
A 2 yearly inspection of the appliance by an authorised service agent will ensure many years of trouble free
service. (Note: This is not provided under warranty).
CONTROL PANEL OPERATION

CONTROL PANEL OPERATION
3.2 Electric Element Controls (CC Models)
These controls select the heat desired for cooking. The control may be turned in either direction. For the dual
element control, the half zone heat operates individually in the left-hand side of the control and the full element
area operates in the right hand side of the control. The indicator lights on the cooktop surface glow when the
corresponding burner is operating. When the controls are turned off, the indicator lights corresponding to hot
heating zones will flash on models CC605D, CC805D and CC29. The indicators will stop flashing when the
residual heat of the relevant cooking zone surface reduces to a safe touch temperature. On models CC605E,
CC805E and CC29E indicator lights will glow continuously until the residual heat of the relevant cooking zone
surface reduces to a safe to touch temperature.
NOTE: People with extra sensitivity to heat must take further caution.
3.3 BBQ Grill Controls (CB Models)
The electric BBQ grill has individual controls for the front and rear grill zones to select the heat desired for
cooking. The controls may be turned in either direction. The indicator lights glow when the corresponding
element zone is operating.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
4. COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
4.1 Cooktop Cooking
To achieve the best possible cooking results, the following points are recommended:*Make sure that both the cooktop surface and the bottom of your cookware is clean and dry before cooking.
Clean and dry surfaces will help prevent scratches and stains on your cooktop and cookware.
*Use good quality saucepans with thick ground bases (preferably 5 mm thick) that effectively cover the heating
area. Pans which have smooth, slightly concave or flat bases when cold will expand and become flat when hot.
With ceramic cooktops (Ceramic cooktop models only) this transfers the heat best. Thin, warped, dented or
ridged bases can cause irregular heat distribution resulting in uneven heating of food. Quality stainless steel
pans are recommended.
* The size of the pan should closely match the size of the cooking zone to be used - not much wider or narrower.
If the diameter of the base of the cookware is much smaller than the diameter of the cooking zone, you will
waste energy and increase the risk of burning spills. If the cookware is too large for the burner boiling times will
be delayed.
* When using the Wok burner, use pans with bases larger than the diameter of the Wok burner. It is recommended
to use only Wok pans or frying pans on the Wok burner. Smaller pans may not provide enough clearance from
the flame making the handle/s too hot and unsafe to hold.
*Use a set of twin or triple saucepans or saucepans with dividers when individually cooking several vegetables
at the same time using only one burner.
*When steaming, use saucepans with close fitting lids.
*When cooking food such as cut vegetables or fruit, cut the food into pieces of uniform size to obtain even
cooking.
*When cooking vegetables use a minimum amount of hot water to obtain a crisp texture and prevent over
cooking. The quantity of water will depend on the type, quantity and quality of the vegetables being cooked.
With the exception of frying, etc., always cook with the lid on the saucepan at the correct heat level to prevent
boilovers.
WARNING: Oversize cookware will deflect heat towards the cooktop and bench top surfaces. Cookware with large
bases, especially if placed off-centre over the burners, may cause deterioration of the cooktop and bench
top surfaces. Such damage is not covered under the provisions of the warranty.
