INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Using the gas Burner

If the burners have not been used for a couple of days, wait for a few seconds before
lighting the burner, this will allow any air present in the pipes to escape.
To ignite the burners on hobs without electric ignition, place a lighted taper close to
the burner, press in and turn the control knob anti-clockwise.
For those hobs with electric ignition, simply turn the control knob to the ignition or maxi-
mum position and press the button marked

. The spark is fired only when the button

is released. If the burner does not ignite first time, try again.
As a safety device, some models automatically cut off the gas supply if the flame is
accidently extinguished. In this case, push and rotate the control knob and keep it held
down for approx 5-6 seconds.
The burner will then remain lit.

ATTENTION: When cleaning the hob, take care to replace the burners correctly,
this will ensure that the ignition point is not blocked.

Use of electric hotplates

For the best use of the electric hotplates and to minimise energy consumption, the
following recommendations should be noted.

A neon indicator light adjacent to the control knob will glow when the electric plate is
in use.

PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT (for Australia only)

test point at the rear of the appliance and fit the hose of the Manometer to it.
Turn the gas on and light the Wok Burner and one Medium Burner at maximum set-
ting. Check the pressure and adjust at the regulator if necessary to the settings in the
table below or on the Data plate.
For Propane Gas adjust at the regulator on the cylinder - Turn regulator adjusting
screw clockwise increases pressure whilst anti-clockwise decreases pressure. Refit
the test point sealing screw when finished.
