To light a burner, turn the relevant control knob
anticlockwise to maximum position and push it down
to ignite. Keep the control knob pressed down for
about 5 seconds, to allow the safety device to be
switched off. Then adjust the flame as required.
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.
Operation
This hob is provided with a safety
device, which will stop the gas flow if
the flame accidentally goes off during
cooking. 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 Service
Centre.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning
can be carried out, you must
DISCONNECT the appliance 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 pan supports are dishwasher proof. If
washing them by hand, take care when drying
them as the enamelling process occasionally
leaves rough edges. If necessay, remove
stubborn stains using a paste cleaner.
The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed
for cleaning.
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.
