Disposal of packaging
The transport and protective packing is
mostly manufactured from the following
re-usable materials:
. . . Corrugated paper / card - mostly
from recycled materials.
. . . Polyethylene foil (PE) partly from secondary raw materials.
Rather than just throwing these materials away, please take them to the
nearest local authority collection point
for specific waste.
Disposal of your old machine
Old machines contain materials which
can be recycled. Please contact your
local authorities or scrap merchant
about potential recycling schemes,
before disposing of the appliance.
Read the notes on page 7 before disposing of the appliance.

Warning and Safety Instructions
Warning and Safety Instructions
This appliance complies with all relevant legal safety requirements. Improper use of the appliance can,
however, present a risk of both personal injury and material damage.
Before installation and before using
the appliance for the first time read
the operating instructions carefully.
They give information on safety, on
the operation and care of the appliance. This way you will avoid the
risk of accidents and damage to the
appliance.
This appliance is intended for do-
mestic use.
Should it be installed for commercial
use the relevant regulations must be observed.
For safety reasons, this appliance
must only be operated as a built-in
appliance. This is necessary to ensure
that all electric components are
shielded.
Ensure that the gas hose and elec-
tricity cable are installed in such a
way that they do not touch any parts of
the appliance which become hot. This
could cause damage.
The electrical safety of the ap-
pliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective earthing
system which complies with local and
national regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is
regulary tested by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer can not be held
responsible for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system.
Installation work and repairs may
only be carried out by suitably
qualified and competent engineers to
ensure safety e.g. "Corgi" registered engineers in the U.K.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous.
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
Please ensure that the domestic
electricity supply corresponds to
the information on the data plate.
You should find out details about the
type of gas and calorific value from
your Gas Board and compare this information with the type of gas quoted on
the data plate.
They must correspond.
The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when it is switched off at the wall
socket, or the mains fuse is withdrawn.
Do not pull by the mains cable, but by
the plug when withdrawing the plug
from the socket.
When switched on, the pan sup-
ports and trough get very hot.
Do not let small children use the
appliance or touch it during operation. Not only do the cooking areas
heat up, but also the control panel.
Danger of burning. Keep all pans out of
the reach of children. Supervise use of
the hob by the elderly or infirm.

Warning and Safety Instructions
Warning and Safety Instructions
The pan and ring supports heat up
when the burners are in use. Do
not touch them until they have cooled
down. The use of oven gloves is
recommended.
Avoid allowing liquids or foods con-
taining salt to spill on to a stainless
steel hob. Should this happen wipe up
any spillages containing salt immediately.
Otherwise discolouration could occur.
Do not leave the appliance unat-
tended when cooking with oils and
fats as these are fire hazards if overheated.
Check that all the burners are cor-
rectly assembled before igniting
the gas, otherwise the ignition could
malfunction.
Always ensure that food is suffi-
ciently cooked or reheated.
Many factors will affect the overall cooking time, including the size and amount
of food, its temperature, changes to the
recipe and the shape and size of cooking container.
Some foods may contain micro organisms which are only destroyed by
thorough cooking, therefore when cooking or reheating foods, e.g. poultry, it is
particulary important that the food is
fully cooked through. If in doubt select
a longer cooking or reheating time.
It is essential to ensure that food
has been evenly and sufficiently
heated, and to check that it is thoroughly cooked, turning or stirring during cooking if necessary.
When using an electric socket
near to the hob, care should be
taken that the cable of the other appliance does not come into contact
with the gas flames or the hot parts of
the hob.
Danger of burning.
When cooking or boiling in large
pots or pans, ensure that there is a
minimum distance of 50 mm between
the pan and a heat-sensitive worktop.
After combustion the hot gases flow
outwards under the base of the pan,
and may consequently burn the edge
of the worktop if too close.
Do not use the control panel as a
resting place for pots and pans.
Make sure there is a minimum dis-
tance of 15 mm between the pan
and the control panel.
When using a cooker hood over
the gas hob, ensure that any burners in use are always covered with a
pan.
Otherwise flames could be drawn up
by the suction of the cooker hood,
parts of which could then be damaged.
Fat residues in the filter could catch fire.
Do not use the hob to heat up the
room.
The high temperatures of the hob could
cause inflammable objects in the
vicinity to burn.
Spray canisters or inflammable
substances must not be stored in
the drawer beneath the hob. Any cutlery trays must be made of a heat resistant material.

Warning and Safety Instructions
Warning and Safety Instructions
Under no circumstances use a
steam-cleaning appliance to clean
the gas hob. The steam could penetrate to live components and cause a
short circuit.
Additional notes for the fitter
When installing the gas hob the following minimum dimensions must be
kept:
A distance of 10 cm from adjacent
units if they are susceptible to heat,
otherwise some form of insulation
must be fitted.
65 cm between the hob and any wall
unit fitted above it.
65 cm between the hob and a
cooker hood above it.
Any backmoulds must be of heat resistant material.
Disposal of discarded appliances
Before disposal of an old appli-ance,
ensure that disconnection from the
gas supply is made by a suitably
competent person (e.g. "Corgi" recognised in the U.K.). Switch off at the
mains, disconnect and remove the
appliance cable at both ends and
render useless. This is intended to
prevent the discarded appliance
from being a hazard.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by noncompliance with safety instructions.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any future
user.

Burners
Burners
Before using for the first time take
heed of the ”Warning and Safety instructions“.
Burner controls
The burner controls may only be
turned anti-clockwise as far as the
small flame symbol and back in a
clockwise direction.
Otherwise the control could be damaged.
The flame strength can be freely selected:
Each burner is equipped with an ignition safety device. If a gas flame goes
out, for example if food has boiled over,
or if there was a sudden draught, the ignition safety control soon cuts off the
supply of gas.
Instructions for using the gas
burners
Place the pan on the pan support.
A ring support is supplied with the gas
hob. It is designed to sit on the pan
support when using small pans.
X Gas switched off
&
Strong flame
/ Low flame
The gas flame is lit by electrical ignition. When the burner control is
pressed a spark passes from the electrode to the burner and ignites the gas
to give a flame.
The ring support should only be used
on the smaller normal (front) burner
with a low flame. It should only be
used with pans with a diameter of
less than 10 cm.
Ignoring this advice could result in
damage to the ring support enamelling.
