•Ensure a good ventilation around the appliance. A poor air supply could cause lack of oxygen.

•Ensure that the gas supply complies with the gas type stated on the identification label, placed near the gas supply pipe.

•Using a gas cooking appliance will produce heat and moisture in the room which it has been installed in. Ensure a continuous air supply, keeping the air vents in good conditions or installing a cooker hood with discharge tube.

•In case of intensive or long time use of the appliance, make the ventilation more efficient, by opening a window or increasing the electric exhaust fan power.

•Once you removed all packaging from the appliance, ensure that it is not damaged and the electric cable is in perfect conditions. Otherwise, contact your dealer before proceeding with the installation.

•The manufacturer disclaims any responsability should all the safety measures not be carried out.

HOB BURNERS CONTROL KNOBS

Thehobburnerscontrolknobsaresituatedonthehobfront panel. The symbols on the knobs mean that :

λthere 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.

•Depresstherelevantswitchmarkedwithasmallspark. Then, push the relevant knob down and turn it anticlockwise until it reaches the "maximum" position.

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 λ.

•In the absence of electricity, ignition can occur without the electrical device; in this case approach the burner with a flame, push the relevant knob down and turn it anti-clockwise until it reaches the "maximum" position.

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

USING THE HOB CORRECTLY

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

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

λThe 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.

λAlways wipe off any splash of liquid before opening the lid.

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

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

	2. 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		FO 2347
	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 983 ITXC)

Caution!

When removing the cast iron pan supports, lift them up as shown in Fig. 3. Never turn the pan 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.

λThe periodic lubrication of the taps must be carried out by qualified personnel, which you must refer to also in case of malfunctioning.
