Control knobs 3 Operation Hob Burners To light a burner: push in the relevant control knob and turn it anticlockwise to maximum position; Mod. EHG 66: upon ignition, keep the knob pushed down about 5 seconds. This will allow the "thermocouple" (Fig. 1 - letter D) to be heated and the safety device to be switched off, otherwise the gas supply would be interrupted; 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). Do not keep the control knob pressed for more than 15 seconds. If the burner does not light even after 15 seconds, release the control knob, turn it the "off" position and wait for at least one minute before trying to light the burner again. If the burner accidentally goes out, turn the control knob to the "off" position and wait for at least 1 minute before trying to light the burner again.

EHG 66) Large (triple-crown) Medium (semi-rapid) Small (Auxiliary) 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. 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 triple crown 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. 4 Maintenance and Cleaning 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. Pan Supports and Wok Stand The pan supports and the Wok Stand 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 burner caps 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. Ignition electrode The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic "electrode" and a metal electrode (Fig. 1 - letter C). Keep these components very clean, to avoid lighting difficulties, and check that the burner crown holes are not obstructed. Something Not Working? If the hob is not working correctly, please carry out the following checks before contacting your local Service Force Centre. SYMPTOM There is no spark when lighting the gas SOLUTION Check that the unit is plugged in and the electrical supply is switched on Check that the RCCB has not tripped (if fitted) Check the mains fuse has not blown Check the burner cap and crown have been replaced correctly, e.g. after cleaning. The gas ring burns unevenly Check the main jet is not blocked and the burner crown is clear of food particles. Check the burner cap and crown have been replaced correctly, e.g. after cleaning. If after all these checks, your hob still does not operate correctly, contact your local Service Force Centre (see pages 10 and 11) 5 Instructions for the Installer Engineers technical data OVERALL DIMENSIONS Width: 580 mm.

The installer shall verify the satisfactory operation of the ignition system on all burners both individually and in combination. The manufacturer will not accept liability, should the above instructions or any of the other safety instructions incorporated in this book be ignored. Regulations This appliance shall be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's installation instructions, local gas fitting regulations, municipal building codes, AS5601 (AG601) and any other relevant statutory regulations. Data label The data label is located on the bottom of the appliance. This appliance is suitable for Natural or Universal LPG. Ensure that the gas supply matches the data label. A duplicate of the data label is supplied in the packaging of the user manual and must be attached to readily accessible adjacent surfaces of the appliances. FO 0814 Connection to the gas supply Gas connection must be carried out in conformity with the regulations in force. The appliance leaves the factory tested and regulated for the type of gas indicated on the plate which is situated in the lower position near the gas connection tube. Ascertain that the type of gas with which the appliance will be supplied is the same as that indicated on the plate. If different carry out all the operations according to the indications cited in the paragraph "adaption to different types of gas". For a maximum output and minimum consumption ascertain that the pressure of the gas used has the values indicated in the table of "burner characteristics". The joint is mounted on the intake area of the pipe, fitted with a filleted nut G 1/2", between the sealing components. Screw the parts without forcing, turn the joint in the direction required and then tighten everything. FO 0264 A) End of shaft with nut B) Washer C) Elbow Natural gas appliances must be fitted with a pressure regulator and be installed at the inlet connection. The gas pressure must then be set as a part of the commissioning procedures. For U-LPG the pressure adjustment is made via the regulator fitted at the domestic cylinder. The natural gas regulator and U-LPG pressure test point must be accessible with the appliance installed. Important Upon completion of installation, always check: that all the joints are completely sealed by using a soapy solution, never a flame; that the gas pressure has been regulated to 1.00kPa for Natural Gas and 2.75kPa for Universal-LPG. The pressure test point is located on the regulator. The pressure should be measured and adjusted with the Wok burner on high flame; that the automatic ignition system is operating satisfactory on all burners, both individually and in combination; that the burners operate correctly, are stable, without yellow tipping or excessive noise on high and low flame. Then demonstrate to the customer the appliance operation and leave these instructions. Connection Carry out the connection to the gas plant only by means of a rigid metallic pipe conforming to the regulations in force. This appliance is not suitable for connection with a hose assembly. The joint for the entry of gas into the appliance is threaded R 1/2" (male thread). Carry out the connection avoiding any type of stress on the appliance. It is important to install the elbow correctly, with the shoulder on the end of the thread, fitted to the hob connecting pipe. Failure to ensure the correct assembly will cause leakage of gas. 7 Electrical connections The appliance is designed to be connected to 230-240 V monophase electricity supply. The connection must be carried out in compliance with the laws and regulations in force. Before the appliance is connected: 1) check that the main fuse and the domestic installation can support the load (see the rating label); 2) check that the power supply is properly earthed in compliance with the current rules; 3) check the socket or the double pole switch used for the electrical connection can be easily reached with the appliance built in the furniture unit. The appliance is supplied with a connection cable provided with a plug, able to support the load marked on the identification plate. The plug has to be fitted in a proper socket. If connecting the appliance directly to the electric system, it is necessary that you install a double pole switch between the appliance and the electricity supply, with a minimum gap of 3 mm. between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current rules. The connection cable has to be placed in order that, in each part, it cannot reach a temperature 50 °C higher than the room temperature. The brown coloured phase cable (fitted in the terminal block contact marked with "L") must always be connected to the network phase. Adaptation to different types of gas WARNING: Servicing shall only be carried out by authorised personnel. Substitution of the nozzles Remove all pan supports, burner caps, rings and crowns; - With a tubular spanner no. 7 unscrew and remove (see diagram) the nozzles substituting them with those corresponding to the type of gas used (see Technical data); - Remount the parts carrying out the operations described in reverse. Upon completion remove existing gas type label and stick the relevant gas type label near the gas supply pipe. If the pressure of gas used is different (or variable) from that foreseen an appropriate pressure regulator should be installed on the entry tube. In case pressure regulators for U-LPG are used these should conform to the regulations in force. - FO 0392 Regulation of the minimum To regulate the minimum: - bring the tap to the minimum flame position. - extract the knob. - in case of conversion from natural gas to U-LPG, tightly screw the by-pass screw (see diagram); - when converting from U-LPG to natural gas unscrew about ½ turn by-pass screw, until a regular small flame is reached.
