Using the hob correctly

Practical hints

The burners

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

Rapid Burner diameter 18-26 cm Semi-rapid Burner diameter 12-22 cm Auxiliary Burner diameter 8-16 cm

• For easier lighting, proceed before

putting a pan on the pan support.

• Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.

• Take care when frying food in hot

oil or fat, as the overheated

splashes could easily ignite.

• 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.

• Prolonged cooking with

potstones, earthenware pans or

cast-iron plates is inadvisable.

Also, do not use aluminium foil to

protect the top during use.

• Make sure pots do not protrude over

the edges of the cooktop and that they

are centrally positioned on the rings in

order to obtain lower gas

consumption.

• Do not place unstable or deformed

pots on the rings: they could tip over or

spill their contents, causing accidents.

• Pots must not enter the control zone.

• If the control knobs become difficult to

turn, please contact your local Service

Force Centre.

• As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn

down the flame so that it will barely

keep the liquid simmering.

Cleaning and Mainteinance

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

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

This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or with a steam cleaning machine.

The burners

z The burner caps and crowns can be

removed for cleaning.

z 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.

z After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry

with a soft cloth.

z Frequently wash the "caps" and the

"crowns" with hot soapy water, carefully taking away any built-up of food.

The Hob Top

z 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.

z Should the hob top become heavily

soiled, the following products are recommended:

- For stainless steel hobs use a proprietary stainless steel cleaner.

- For other hobs use Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend.

z Do not leave acid or alkaline

substances (e.g. vinegar, salt, lemon juice, etc.) on the cooktop.

Pan supports

The hob is provided with enamelled pan supports (thin and light). 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 the picture. To take the pan supports completely off the hob, proceed as shown in the picture. The pan supports are dishwasher proof.

The Ignition electrode

The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic electrode with a metal electrode. Keep these components very clean, to avoid difficult lighting, and check that the burner crown holes are not obstructed.

Periodic Maintenance

Periodically ask your local Service Centre to check the conditions of the gas supply pipe and the pressure adjuster, if fitted.

Installation

• The following instructions about

installation and maintenance must be carried out by qualified personnel in compliance with the regulation in force.

• The appliance must be electrically

disconnected before all interventions. If any electric supply to the appliance is required to carry out the work, ensure all the necessary precautions are followed.

• The side walls of the unit in which

the hob is going to be installed, must not exceed the height of the working top.

• Avoid installing the appliance in

the proximity of inflammable materials (e.g. curtains, tea towels etc.).

THE MANUFACTURER WILL NOT ACCEPT LIABILITY, SHOULD ANY OF THE OTHER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS INCORPORATED IN THIS BOOKLET OR THE REGULATION IN FORCE BE IGNORED.

Gas connection

Choose fixed connections or use a flexible pipe in stainless steel in compliance with the regulation in force. If using flexible metallic pipes, be careful they do not come in contact with mobile parts or they are not squeezed. Use the same attention when the hob is combinated with an oven.

IMPORTANT - To ensure a correct operation, a savingof energy and the long life of the appliance, the voltage pressure of the appliance must correspond to the recommended values. The adjustable connection is fixed to the comprehensive ramp by means of a threaded nut G 1/2". Interpose the sealing between the components as shown in the picture. Screw the parts without forcing, adjust the connection in the required direction and tighten everything.

Connection using flexible nonmetal pipes

When the connection can be easily inspected in its full extent, there is the chance to use a flexible pipe according to the rules in force. The flexible pipe must be tightly fixed using clamps according to the rules in force.

Liquid gas:

use the rubber pipe holder «D» (according to the local regulations in force). Always insert the gasket «B». Then proceed with the gas connection. The flexible pipe should be made ready for use in such a way that:

- nowhere it can reach overtemperature,

other than room temperature, higher than 30°C; if the flexible pipe, to reach the cock, must run behind the range, it must be installed as shown in picture;

- it is no longer than 1500 mm;

- it shows no throttles;

- it is not subject to traction or torsion;

- it doesn't get in touch with cutting

edges or corners;

- it can be easily inspected in order to check its condition.

The control of preservation of the flexible
