Instruction for the User

Hob burners control knobs

Using the hob correctly

The hob burners control knobs are situated on the hob
front panel. The symbols on the knobs mean that :

there is no gas supply

•

there is maximum gas supply
there is minimum gas supply

Lighting the burners

For easier lighting, proceed before putting a
pan on the pan support.

Push the relevant knob down and turn it anti-clockwise
until it reaches the "maximum" position.

Mod. ZGF 646 ICTX

After lighting the flame, keep the knob pushed down
for about 5 seconds. This will allow the
"thermocouple" (Fig. 1 lett. D) to be heated and the
safety device to be switched off, otherwise the gas
supply would be interrupted.

Then, check the flame is regular and adjust it as
required.
If you cannot light the flame even after several
attempts, check the "cap" (Fig. 1 lett. A) and the
"crown" (Fig. 1 lett. B) are in the correct position.
To put the flame out, turn the knob to the symbol

• Always turn the flame down or put it out before
taking the pans off the burner.

•

.

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, it is strongly
recommended that you use only pots and pans with a
bottom fitting the size of the burner used, so that flame
will not spread beyond the bottom of the vessel (see the
table beside).
It is also advisable, as soon as a liquid starts boiling, to
turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
simmering.

Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.

Carefully supervise cookings with fats or oil,
since these types of foodstuff can result in a
fire, if over-heated.

The Hob Lid (mod. ZGF 646 IX)

In order to make the appliance match with the kitchen
design, a lid (not provided) can be fitted on the hob.

• The lid is meant to avoid dust to settle on the hob,
when it is closed, and to collect splashes of oil or
fat, when it is open. Do not use it for any other
purpose.

• Always wipe off any splash of liquid before
opening the lid.

• Always clean the lid from cooking residues before
opening it or taking it off.

WARNING! The crystal lid can splinter when
overheated. Always ensure all the burners are
off before closing it.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Disconnect the appliance from the electrical
supply, before carrying out any cleaning or
manteinance work.

Wash the enamelled components with warm soapy water.
Never use abrasive cleaners.
Frequently wash the "caps" and the "crowns" with hot
soapy water, carefully taking away any built-up of food.
Carefully wash the stainless steel components with water,
then wipe them dry with a soft cloth.
The pan supports are dishwasher proof.
If the marks are particularly difficult to remove, use
common non-abrasive cleaners or specific products.
Never use steel wool pads or acids.
In models provided with electric ignition, this feature is
obtained through a ceramic "candle" and a metal electrode
(Fig. 1 lett. C). Keep these components well clean, to avoid
difficult lighting, and check that the burner crown holes (lett.
B) are not obstructed.

Pan supports

To keep the pan supports in the right position, they are
hooked to a couple of special hinges in the back of the hob.
Thanks to these hooks, you can lift the pan supports for
easier cleaning, as shown in Fig. 2.
To take the pan supports completely off the hob, proceed
as shown in Fig. 3.

Cast iron pan supports

(ZGF 646 ICTX)

Caution!
When removing the cast iron pan supports, lift
them up as shown in Fig. 3. Nev e r tu rn t h e pa n
supports on the hinges as shown in Fig. 2, since
this could damage them.

Periodic Maintenance

Periodically ask your local Service Centre to check the
conditions of the gas supply pipe and the pressure adjuster,
if fitted.
To ensure the good operation of the hob and its safety
features, it is necessary that the taps are periodically
lubricated.
