3. ADAPTATION TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS
Before performing any cleaning or maintenance work, detach th appliance from the electrical socket.
The cooker hob is set for natural gas G20 (2H) at a pressure of 20 mbar for cookers with maxi oven, and for LPG G30/G31 (3+) at a pressure of 28/37 mbar for cookers with gas-bottle compartments. In the case of functioning with other types of gas the burner nozzles must be chan ged and the minimum flame adjusted on the gas taps. To change t he nozzles, proceed as described below.

3.1 Replacement of nozzles on the hob

This operation requires no primary air regulation.
1. Extract the grids and remove all the caps and flame-spreader crowns;
2. unscrew the burner nozzles with a 7 mm socket wrench;
3. replace the nozzles according to the type of gas to be used and the description in paragraph “3.2 Burner and nozzle characteristics table”.
4. Replace the burners in the correct position.

4. FINAL OPERATIONS
Having carried out the above adjustments, reassemble the appliance following, backwards, the instructions in paragraph “3.2 Burner and nozzle characteristics table”.
After adjustment to a different kind of gas from the one for which the cooker has been tested, replace the plate inside the heating compartment with one corresponding to the new kind of gas. This plate can be obtained from your nearest Authorised Assistance Centre.
4.1 Adjustment of minimum for natural gas
Light the burner and take it to the minimum. Remove the gas tap knob and turn the adjustment screw inside or at the side of the tap shaft (depending on the model) until there is a regular minimum flame. Replace the knob and check burner flame stability: (rapidly turning the knob from maximum to minimum position, the flame should not go out). Repeat the operation on all the gas taps.
4.2 Regulation of minimum for LPG
To regulate the minimum for LPG, completely tighten (clockwise) the screw inside or next to the gas tap pin (depending on the model). The diameters of the by-passes for each burner are given in table “3.2 Burner and nozzle characteristics table”.
4.3 Lubrication of gas taps
With time it may happen that the gas taps get blocked and hard to turn. Clean them inside and re-grease them. This operation must be done by a specialised technician.

5. USE OF THE COOKING HOB
.1 Lighting the burners
Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame caps are in the correct position and that their burn er caps are in place, making s ure that the holes A in the flame caps correspond to the spark plugs and
Panstand grid B, available upon request, is intended for use with woks
thermocouples.
(Chinese pans). To prevent damage to the worktop, the hob is equipped with a raised grid C: installs over pans larger than the diameter shown in the table in paragraph " 5.3 Diameter of receptacles". Note that pans larger than 30 cm diameter must be used only on the central burner.
Each knob corresponds to the burner indicated. The appliance is equipped with an electric lighting device. To light the burners, press and turn the knob
anticlockwise to the large flame symbol
. Keep the knob pressed for about 2 seconds to let the thermocouple heat up.
If the burner turns off when the knob is released, it means that the
thermocouple isn’t hot enough. Repeat ignition and keep the knob pressed longer. Once the burner has been ignited, the flame can be regulated as required. Always check that the control knobs are in the position (off) when you finish using the hob.
If the burners turn off accidentally, a safety device will trip after about 20 seconds to cut off gas flow (even with the gas tap open).

Instructions for the user
5.2 Practical advice for using the burners
For better use of the burners and lower gas consumption, use covered containers that are proportional in size to the burner to prevent the flam e from licking the sides (see paragraph “5.3 Diameter of containers”). When water reaches the boiling point, lower the flame so that it doesn’t overflow.
To avoid burns or damage to the hob, all recipients or griddle plates must be placed within the perimeter of the cooking hob.
When using fats or oils, be extremely careful that they don’t overheat and catch fire.

6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before any intervention, disconnect the power supply of the device.
6.1 Cleaning stainless steel
To keep stainless steel in good condition it should be cleaned regularly after use. Let it cool first.
6.1.1 Ordinary Daily Cleaning
To clean and preserve the stainless steel surfaces, always use only specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. How to use: pour the product on a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.
6.1.2 Food stains or residues
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers: they will damage the surface. Use normal non-abrasive products for steel, and a wooden or plastic tool if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.
6.2 Cleaning of cooking hob components
The caps and flame-spreader crowns are extractable
to facilitate cleaning. Wash them in hot water with non-abrasive detergent, taking care to remove any incrustations, and wait until they are perfectly dry.
CAUTION: do not wash these components in a
dishwasher. The burners can be left to soak in hot water and detergent.
Replace the flame-spreader crowns, checking that
they are positioned in their housing with their respective caps, taking care that flame-spreader holes A correspond to the spark plugs and the thermocouples.
To work well, the ignition plugs and thermocouples must always be very clean. Check them frequently and clean them with a wet rag if necessary. Any dry residue should be removed with a toothpick or a needle.
