INSTALLATION

Any gas installation must be carried out by a registered CORGI installer, and in accordance with existing rules and

regulations. The relevant instructions are to be found in the second section of this manual.

Please, ensure that, once the hob is

installed, it is easily accessible for the

engineer in the event of a breakdown.

WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED

Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any protective materials, which were put on in the factory.

Operation

HOB BURNERS

To light a burner, turn the relevant knob anticlockwise to maximum position and push down the knob to ignite. If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero, and try again.

When switching on the mains, after installation or a power cut, it is quite normal

for the spark generator to be activated automatically.

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table).

Burner minimum maximum

diameter diameter

Large (rapid) 160 mm. 240 mm. Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm. 220 mm. Small (Auxiliary) 80 mm. 160 mm.

If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the recommended size, the flame will spread beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to overheat.

As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the

liquid simmering.

Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated splashes could easily ignite.

If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your local Electrolux Service Centre.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be

carried out, you must DISCONNECT the

hob from the electricity supply.

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage can be removed more easily than if it is left to cool.

The Hob Top

Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a little wasing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the following:

- household detergent and bleaches;

- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;

- steel wool pads;

- bath/sink stain removers. Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is

recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend is used.

Pan Supports

The hob has two cast iron pan supports. Take care when removing them. They are fair heavy and could damage the hob or your kitchen furniture if you let them fall down.

To keep the pan supports in the correct position, they are hooked into hinges at the back of the hob. When removing the pan supports, lift them up as shown in the diagram. Never turn the pan supports on the hinges, this could damage them. Wash the pan supports using hot soapy water. If necessary, a paste cleaner or a soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caution.

The Burners

The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.

YES

Wash the burners taps and crowns using hot soapy water, and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are particularly difficult to remove.

After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.
