Installation
Important
I N S TA L L ATION AND ADJUSTMENT MUST BE
CARRIED OUT BY AUTHORISED TECHNICAL
PERSONNEL ACCORDING TO THE APPLICABLE
INSTALLATION REGULATIONS.
Positioning of the hobs
Depending on the model to be installed an
a p e rt u re will be made in the worktop, of the
dimensions specified in the drawing 10. A
template is included in the packaging of
models CG.1 4G. and CG.1 3G. 1P. for the
c o rrect sizing of the apert u re for these two
hob models.
Wa rning: If the hob is assembled on any part
of the furn i t u re (drawers, cupboards, etc.) an
i n t e rmediate separation must be placed between both at a minimum distance of 100 mm.
f rom the lower part of the plate to avoid any
i n v o l u n t a ry direct contact. This interm e d i a t e
separation must be permanent and only removed with tools.
For hobs with controls, its location must include a ventilation slot at the front, of 110 cm2.
In this case the minimum distance between
the lower part of the hob and the upper part of
the furn i t u re below the hob will be 20 mm. If
t h e re is no front ventilation slot, the minimum
distance between the hob and the upper part
of the furniture must be 130 mm.
The minimum vertical distance of the lower
part of the piece of furniture placed above the
hob will be 600 mm.
The piece of furn i t u re where the hob with oven
is to be placed will be properly fixed.
* In the case of the granite hob the measu-
rement can be 580 mm.

Positioning of the oven
See th applicable manual.
Anchoring of the hob
Once the hob position has been dimensioned,
the seal (J) must be affixed to the lower part
of the cooker. This is fastened by means of
four clamps (G), each of which has two tabs
(P) which are inserted in the apert u res (O) in
the hob until they click into place. To secure
the clamp, open the tab (S) outwards a little
as indicated in the figure. Once the seal and
the clamps have been positioned the appliance may be installed in its position.
Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws (T) on
the four clamps and the hob will be perf e c t l y
secured in place. (See drawing 11).
N.B. It is imperative to install the seal under
the brim of the worktop. Failure to install this
may cause the worktop to be exposed to high
temperatures.

If the telescopic universal joints are too short,
extensions can be used. These are inserted at
pressure and fastened with the corresponding
cover.
To make the oven’s electrical connection, consult the oven’s instruction manual.
Hob model CGC 4G AI AL
This hob should be fitted onto the oven by
following the same method, except for item 7,
where the procedure shall be as follows:
Fix the hob knob covers on the oven according
to the oven instructions manual. Fix the knob
covers included with the hob and remove those for the oven.
This hob comes complete with knob covers for
all TEKA ovens except for models RT-600 and
RT-800. For these two models, order the knob
covers in your nearest TEKA establishment or
official technical service.
Gas Connection
The hob’s gas connection to the mains supply
must be made in accordance with the applicable installation regulations and by qualified
technical personnel (an authorized installer).
The gas connection for these hobs must be by
means of rigid piping, given that this is an
immobilized appliance, in the case of hobs
destined for the EC. The hob is pre p a red with
a 1/2"
diameter screw connection according to
ISO 228-1, or 1/2"
nection to ISO 7-1 according to the regulations
of the receiving country.
For the markets with 1/2"
tion a copper tube of diameter 10/12 mm is
suplied as an accessory. This can be welded
to the gas intake pipe.
The room must be provided with adequate ventilation, in accordance with the applicable
regulations.
diameter conical screw con-
ISO 228-1 connec-
Page 13
61401134/329 ingles 18/7/03 16:55 Página 13
The gas connection between the hob and the
mains gas pipe must be in accordance with
the basic regulations for gas installations in
homes.
T E K A will not accept responsability for faults
or damage caused by incorrect or defective
instalation.
Once the gas connetion has been made the
a i rtightness of the installation mus be checked. If the check is made using air, the testing
pressure must be no greater than 200 g/cm2 .
To avoid causing damage to the hob during
installation when tightenig the gas pipe connection nut, a maximum grip torque of 350
kg.f.cm must be used.
After installing the hob, check that the burners’ minimum settings are well regulated. To
do this, light the burners and check that they
do not go out when brusquely turned fro m
maximum to minimum.
Do not connect the hob burners with town gas
whose composition contains carbon monoxide, except in models which incorporate a
safety device.
Electrical Connection
(Only for cookers with automatic ignition or
with electric hotplates).
First of all it must be checked that the mains
voltage is the same as that indicated on the
appliance’s rating plate.
The connection must be made through an
omnipolar cut-off switch with a distance of at
least 3 mm between the contacts, assuring
disconnection in cases of emergency or for
the cleaning of the hob. It must also be pro v ided with the correct earth connection in accordance with the applicable regulations.
In the event that it were necessary to re p l a c e
the electrical cable of these appliances, this
should be done by official TEKA technicians as
specific tools are required.
Each time the gas connection nut is re m o v e d
the washer must be replaced.

Gas trasformation
Important!
The transformation of the appliance to use a
d i ff e rent gas to that for which it has been
sold must only be carried out by a qualified
technician.
I n f o rmation for the Technical Serv i c e : in the
event of conversion of the type of gas or
p re s s u re in the appliance, the new re g u l a t i o n
label must be placed over the existing one, in
o rder to identify the new characteristics after
the changeover.
To make the transformation replace the gas
nozzles and regulate the minimum settings of
the taps.
The gas nozzles necessary for each type of
gas are indicated in table 1.
To replace the gas nozzles it is necessary to
follow the following instructions:
• Remove the pan supports and the top part
of the burners in order to access the nozzle.
• Use a no 7 tubular spanner to remove
the nozzles and replace them with the
c o rresponding alternative nozzles. Take care
to tighten the nozzles well so as to avoid the
risk of gas leaks.
• Reposition the pan support and burn e r
covers.
Once the gas nozzles have been replaced, the
following instructions must be followed to
graduate the minimum settings.
Hob CG.1 4G, CG.1 3G 1P, CGC 4G y CGC 4G
AI AL
• Remove the oven or the control panel fro m
their place to access the gas taps.
• Light the burners at their minimum setting.
• Use a small screw driver to remove the
s c rew on the right or centre of the plug of
the gas key (turn left for a big flame and
right for a small flame).
• Once the setting has been graduated
check that the flame remains at its minimum setting when the control is bru s q u e l y
t u rned between the maximum and the
minimum setting.
• In order to access the screw which gradua-
tes the gas flow through the taps in hob
CGC 4G AI AL, remove the screws that fix
the cover protecting the taps to the case
and lift the cover.
• Remove the tap controls by pulling them
u p w a rds stro n g l y.
• Light the burners at their minimum setting.
• Use a small screw driver to remove the

Drawging 22
For safety reasons we recommend that the
gas supply tap should be turned off when the
cooker is not in use, in accordance with gas
supply company instructions.
If you smell gas, turn off the hob’s gas supply
tap and ventilate the room. The gas installation and the hob must be checked by a specialized technician.
Warning:
Follow the instructions below in order to operate a CGC 4G AI AL hob: (See drawing 22).
• Check that the control knobs are in the
appropriate position.
• Open the gas flow key or the gas cylinder
key.
• P ress the control knob and turn it at the
same time in anti-clockwise direction as far
as it will go to the ignition setting (ignition
illustration). Once gas has been lit, keep
the control knob at this setting for 5 to 10
seconds to let the safety thermocouple act.
To avoid the risk of burns, keep children away
from the hob during or after its operation.
Use flat bottomed pans and check that they
a re placed correctly on the pan support, in
o rder to prevent pans from sliding when their
contents start to boil (do not use pans with
concave or convex bases).
Hob models CG-Lux-75 and CG-Lux-86 are
p rovided with a special pan support which
p e rmits the use of concave-bottom pans
(woks).
25
Page 26
61401134/329 ingles 18/7/03 16:57 Página 26
The minimum diameter of the pans to be used
is 140 mm. For pans of 120 mm diameter or
less, use the small burner with the pan support supplement.
Switching on Electric Hotplates
The electric hotplates are controlled by a
seven step switch. To obtain diff e rent powers
the corresponding control must be turned to

These hobs have zones which become hot
during and after their use and can cause
burns.
The red-point hotplate (1,500 W) heats up
especially quickly and at its maximum power
during approximately the first five minutes.
After this time its power drops to 500 W and it
conserves the same temperature.
The control panel features a square drawing
containing circles beside each control knob,
indicating to which hotplate the control corresponds.

On the same panel there is a pilot light which
indicates the operation of one or more hotplates.

When connecting the hotplate for the first
time, or if the plate has not been used in a
long time, it is necessary to dry out any humi-
dity which may have been absorbed by the
insulation. To achieve this, switch the hotplate
on, without any pan, for five minutes at power
position 2.

Components of a Safety System
On all the hobs which incorporate the safety
f e a t u re (models with initials AL), the gas cuto ff system is comprised formed by the following elements: (See drawing 24).
• Safety tap
• Safety thermocouple next to the burner
• Thermocouple-tap connection
The thermocouple sends an electrical signal to
the tap, detecting the presence or absence of
a flame at the burn e r. During ignition the tap
must be kept pressed in for 5 to 10 seconds
until the thermocouple heats up and sends
the flame confirmation signal to the tap. If the
flame goes out, its absence is detected by the
t h e rmocouple and the safety tap cuts off the
supply of gas.

Using your Hob
Drawing 25
• When cooking with a griddle pan, stoneware pots or pans which reflect heat downwards, you must use the pan support supplement, otherwise the excessive
t e m p e r a t u re which is reflected downward s
may damage the hob glass or the burners.
• The pan support supplement can be used
to cook with pans of small diameters,
when very little heat is needed, to cook
v e ry slowly, or to keep food warm. Burn e r
e fficiency is lost when the pan support
supplement is used.
• If you detect any breakage or cracking in
the hob glass, switch all the burner cont rols to the off position (‘0’), turn off the
gas connection and disconnect the electricity supply. Contact your TEKA Te c h n i c a l
Service.
• Do not use the glass surface as a storage
area.
• Do not put aluminium plates, tinfoil or plastics on the glass surface.
• On hobs which have five burners, pans of
l a rge diameters must always be placed
on the central burner in order to pre v e n t
heat from being reflected onto the work-
top. On hobs with four burners you should
use the pan support supplement with this
type of pan.

Hints for the Correct Usage
of Burners
• Do not use large burners with pans of
small diameters as part of the flame will
be deflected around the outside of the
pan, thus considerably reducing eff i c i e n c y
(See drawing 27).
AB

ABDrawing 27
• Lit burners must not be left uncovered, in
o rder to avoid the wastage of gas and to
p revent the excessive heating of the pan
support.
• When the burners are lit they must not be
exposed to strong drafts. As well as re d ucing their calorific power there is a risk
that the flame may be blown out, leading
to gas leaks which could cause an accident. Care should be taken in this re spect particularly when burners are operating at a low setting.
• If the burner causes the blackening of
pans, or if the points of the flames are
y e l l o w, it needs to be cleaned. If this fault
persists, get in touch with your Te c h n i c a l
Service to adjust the primary air setting or
to clean the gas pipe.
• Do not use cast iron pans directly on the
pan support as they reflect excessive heat
towards the hob.
• Pans placed on the burners must not be
allowed to pro t rude over the edges of the
hob, in order to prevent deflected flames
f rom damaging worktops with plastic surf a c e s .
Hints for the Correct Usage
of Electric Hotplates
For maximum efficiency with electric hotplates, follow these guidelines:
• Use pans with totally flat bottoms. The gre ater the area in contact with the plate, the
g reater the transmission of heat. Pans with
thick bottoms are recommended as these
a re more resistant to denting. Notice in the
f i g u re 28 how the contact area is smaller
when the pan bottom is dented or warped.
ABB
RightWrong
AB
• Do not use pans whose diameter is smaller than that of the hotplate. This avoids
the risk of boiling food spilling onto the
hotplate.
• D ry the bottom of all pans before placing
them on the electric hotplates.
• When you have almost finished cooking it
is recommended to switch the hotplate to
its minimum setting or to switch it off completely a few moments before removing the
pan. This allows use to be made of storedup energy and prevents the hotplate fro m
working without a load.

Reminder
Do not use small pans on large burners, as the flame will be dissipated.
Use appropriately sized pans for each burn e r, thus
making the best use of the heat.
Do not place pans unevenly on the pan support.
Place the pan correctly over the centre of the burn e r.
Do not use pans which reflect excessive heat
downwards directly on the pan support.
When using a griddle pan, stoneware pots or pans
which reflect heat downwards, always use the pan
support supplement.
Do not place pans directly on the burner.
Always place pans on the pan support.
Do not use sharp objects on the hob.
After use, pan supports should be cleaned when
c o l d .
Avoid excessive weights or blows to the hob with
heavy objects.
Handle pans with care on the cooker.

Cleaning and Conservation
For the correct conservation of the hob glass
it must be cleaned using the appropriate products and utensils and when the glass is
cold. Cleaning is easier if it is done each
time the hob is used, thus preventing the
build-up of dirt .
The cleaning of the hob glass will depend on
its degree of dirtiness:
• When the hob is only slightly dirty and the
d i rt is not adhered, clean with a damp
cloth and mild detergent.
• Stains or grease should be removed using
cleaning products suitable for glass (ceramic cleaners).
• When dirt is strongly adhered or burn t - o n ,
it should be removed by scraping with a
razor blade.
• If plastic objects/utensils or sugar has
melted on the surface of the glass, these
should be scraped off immediately, before
the glass cools off.
• Under no circumstances should aggressive
or abrasive cleaning products, such as
oven cleaners, deoxidizing stain re m o v e r s ,
sponges with hard surfaces or scoure r s ,
be used.
• Do not slide pans across the glass. This
may cause scratching.
• Take care to prevent pans from boiling dr y.
The heat accumulated in the bottom of the
pan could cause damage to the burner or
to the hob glass.
• The hob glass will withstand light blows by
large pans which do not have sharp edges.
C a re should be taken to avoid impacts by
small sharp utensils. Do not strike the
edge of the glass with pans as this may
cause irreparable damage.
• Do not spill cold liquids on the glass or the
burners when they are hot.
• Do not stand or lean on the glass. It may
break and cause injury.
Cleaning and conservation of other elements:
• Pan supports should be cleaned with a
non-abrasive scourer after they have cooled off.
• B u rners must be cleaned periodically, particularly the grooves in the burner heads.
This is achieved by soaking in warm soapy
water and scrubbing with a scourer or a
stiff brush.
• Do not clean the enamelled burner covers
when they are still hot. Damage can be
caused by abrasive products, such as vinegar, coffee, milk, salt water and tomato juice, as a result of prolonged contact with
the enamelled surfaces.
• Stainless steel must be washed with
soapy water and a soft cloth. If the surface
continues to be yellow after washing we
recommend the use of lemon, vinegar, diluted bleach or a cleaning product which contains bleach. The shine of stainless steel
is maintained by lightly buffing with a
metal polish.
• The control panel should be cleaned with
soapy water and a soft cloth.
• When the burners have been dismantled
for cleaning purposes, care should be
taken to prevent liquids or other objects
from entering the nozzle unit.
• Do not use cleaning products which are
a g g ressive to aluminium, such as caustic
soda, oil, etc.
• Each time you assemble a burn e r, check
that all of its component parts fit together
c o rre c t l y. A badly positioned element may
cause the hob glass to overheat.

MaintenanceElectric Hotplates
B e f o re cleaning, disconnect the appliance
from the mains supply.
Electric hotplates should be cleaned with
soapy water and a non-abrasive scoure r. If,
after cooking, the stainless steel ring of the
hotplate or cooker frame is seem to be slightly
yellow, this may be cleaned using lemon, vineg a r, diluted bleach or any cleaning pro d u c t
which contains bleach.
Do not clean the hotplates when they are still
hot.
If any liquid is spilt on the hotplates this
should be removed instantly with a dry cloth.
Never allow remains of food to carbonize on
the hotplate as this will reduce its heat transmission capacity.
After using the hotplate it must be greased, leaving its surface shiny and preventing ru s t i n g .
To extend the lifetime of the hotplate, excessive humidity or temperature should be avoided
where possible.
No part of this appliance requires period lubrication, though the gas tap cones should be
kept clean and well greased.
Each time the gas taps are dismantled, the
washer which connects them with the distribution pipe should be replaced.
The burners are operating correctly when their
flame is stable and of a blue-green colour. If
the points of the flame are yellow the burn e r s
should be well cleaned. If the problem persists, contact your Technical Service.
To guarantee the airtightness of the gas installation and the correct operation of the burners, the hob must be serviced by the specialized Technical Service at least once every
four years.
N.B.
Any re q u i red modification or setting of the
appliance must be carried out by authorized
technical personnel.
Steam appliances must not be used to clean
the heating plate.
