Operation

HOB BURNERS
To light a burner, turn the relevant control knob

anticlockwise to maximum position. At the same time

push the electric ignition pushbutton which is marked by

a little spark. Then adjust the flame as required.

If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to

zero, and try again.

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).

Using the Wok Stand

A wok stand is provided to enable you to use a round

bottomed wok on the hob. The wok stand must only be

used on the central burner, and should not be used with

any other type of wok or pan.
When fitting the wok stand, ensure the recesses in the

frame fit securely onto the bars of the pan supports, as

shown in the diagram.

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 Service Force Centre.

Maintenance and Cleaning

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.

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 washing 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.
