TIPS AND INFORMATION

Setting the time

If you have purchased a model fitted with an electronic or programmable timer, you MUST set the time of day before you can operate your appliance.

9BEFORE OPERATING YOUR APLIANCE

INSTALLING YOUR OVEN ACCESSORIES

Prior to installing accessories, remove all packaging and remove plastic film from external panels.

Side racks

The side racks that come with your oven are fitted in the following manner:

• Insert the 2 rear pegs into the holes provided.

• Locate the front peg into the front access hole and push in firmly.

• Once the indents have passed the front edge of the side rack, the shelf can be pushed completely in.

• When fully inserted the shelf/tray should not interfere with the closed door.

Shelves and trays

The shelves are designed so that they have maximum travel but cannot be accidentally pulled right out. The trays are designed in the same way and fit straight into the side racks.

• Locate the rear edge of the shelf/tray in between 2 guide rails of the side rack – see diagram. Ensure the same rail positions on both sides of the oven are being engaged.

• With the front edge raised, begin to slide the shelf into the oven.

Installing burners

• The burner crown must be fitted correctly into the burner cup or damage will occur during operation.

• To do this, ensure that the 2 ribs on either side of the spark plug hole are positioned into the 2 slots on the burner cup.

• The burner cap and burner crown must be clean and located correctly for the burner to light.

NOTE: When the burner is correctly fitted it will sit level

on the hob.

Installing trivets

INSTALLING BURNERS AND TRIVETS

Lighting the burners

• The rubber feet on the trivets locate into the contours of the hob

• Take care when placing the trivets as dropping them may damage the hob or trivet

• The wok trivet sits on top of the trivet above the wok burner

Electronic ignition

These hobs are fitted with mains powered electronic ignition. When the appliance has been connected and the power is on, depressing any knob will release sparks to all burners. To light a burner, depress the corresponding knob and while continuing to depress knob turn anticlockwise to ‘HI’ position. The knob may be released once the flame is established, and turned further anticlockwise to reduce the flame height as desired.

Flame safeguard models WFE914SB & WFEP915SB

Models with flame safeguard have the same ignition procedure as electronic ignition, but require the knob to continue to be depressed after flame is established for approximately 5 seconds. If the flame goes out when the knob is released, simply depress the knob again, this time holding it down with slightly more force for the same length of time.

WARNING

• Keep hands clear of burners when lighting.

• If burner does not light within 5 seconds, turn knob to ‘Off’ position, allow gas to disperse, then try lighting again.

• Burners MUST be operated between ‘HIGH’ and ‘LOW’ settings only.

Using your gas hotplates

NOTE: Gas controls turn anticlockwise from ‘Off’ and have limited movement.

ENVIRONMENT

To conserve gas, place the pan centrally over the burner and adjust the flame so that it does not go past the edge of the cookware.

NOTE: In the absence of electrical power, carry out the ignition directly to the burner with a hand held ignition source.

WARNING

ENVIRONMENTAL TIPS

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR COOKTOP

WARNING

If the ceramic glass is cracked, switch off the appliance to avoid the possibility of electric shock.

The heating elements are concealed under the smooth glass surface which has a pattern to show the location of the elements.

• Use pans with smooth, clean and dry bottoms to avoid scratching or burning residue into the glass.

• Ensure the pan bottom is the same size as the working element.

• We do not recommend ceramic glass pans because they do not conduct heat well.

• Stainless steel or enamelled saucepans are best.

• Do not use pans with copper or aluminium bottoms because they can leave traces which are difficult to remove from the glass.

• If buying new utensils select enamelled steel pans with 2-3mm thick bottoms or stainless steel pans with sandwich bottoms 4-6mm thick. The pan bottom should be flat, or preferably, slightly concave at room temperature so that it lies flat on the glass surface when hot.

A flat or slightly concave pan is preferable for ceramic hotplates

ENVIRONMENT

The bottom of pans and cooking zones should be the same size
