Child Safety This hob is designed to be operated by adults. Do not allow children to play near or with the hob. The hob gets hot when it is in use. Children should be kept away until it has cooled. Children can also injure themselves by pulling pans or pots off the hob. During Use This hob is intended for domestic cooking only. It is not designed for commercial or industrial purposes. This appliance is not connected to a combustion products evacuation device. It must be installed and connected in accordance with current installation regulations. Particular attention shall be given to the relevant requirements regarding ventilation. When in use a gas cooking hob will produce heat and moisture in the room in which it has been installed. Ensure there is a continuous air supply, keeping air vents in good condition or installing a cooker hood with a venting hose. When using the hob for a long period of time, the ventilation should be improved, by opening a window or increasing the extractor speed. Do not use this hob if it is in contact with water. Do not operate the hob with wet hands. 2 Ensure the control knobs are in the `OFF' position when not in use. When using other electrical appliances, ensure the cable does not come into contact with the hot surfaces of the cooking appliance. Unstable or misshapen pans should not be used on the hob as unstable pans can cause an accident by tipping or spillage. Never leave the hob unattended when cooking with oil and fats. Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes on the hob. Perishable food, plastic items and areosols may be affected by heat and should not be stored above or below the hob unit. Service This hob should only be repaired or serviced by an authorised Service Engineer and only genuine approved spare parts should be used.

Hob Top 2. Semi-rapid burner 3. Auxiliary burner 4. Rapid burner 5. Ultra-rapid burner (triple crown) 6. Control knobs Installation Any gas installation must be carried out by a registered CORGI installer, and in accordance with existing rules and regulations. The relevant instructions are to be found in the second section of this manual. Please, ensure that, once the hob is installed, it is easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a breakdown. WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any protective materials, which were put on in the factory. 5 Hob burners control knobs The symbols on the knobs mean that : there is no gas supply there is maximum gas supply there is minimum gas supply Operation Fig. 2 Lighting the burners For easier lighting, proceed before putting a pan on the pan support. To light a burner, turn the relevant knob anticlockwise to FO 0204 maximum position ( ), then push it down to ignite the A - Burner cap burner. Upon ignition, adjust the flame as required. If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero, B - Burner crown C - Ignition electrode 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. In the absence of electricity, ignition can occur without the electrical device; in this case, approach the burner with a flame, push the relevant knob down and turn it anti-clockwise until it reaches the "maximum" position. Burner minimum maximum diameter diameter Triple-crown (ultra-rapid) 160 mm 260 mm Large (rapid) 160 mm 240 mm Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm 220 mm Small (auxiliary) 80 mm 160 mm As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid simmering. 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. 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. Fig. 3 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 figure 3. 6 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. Fig. 4 FO 2110 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. Pan Supports When washing the pan supports by hand, take care when drying them as the enamelling process occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary, 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. 2 - lett. C). Keep these components very clean, to avoid difficult lighting, and check that the burner crown holes (Fig. 2 - lett. B) are not obstructed. 7 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. Please note that it will be necessary to provide proof of purchase for any inguarantee service calls. In-guarantee customers should ensure that the above checks have been made as the engineer will make a charge if the fault is not a mechanical or electrical breakdown. 8 Service and Spare Parts If you require spare parts or an engineer contact your local Service Force Centre by telephoning: 0870 5 929 929 Your call will be routed to your local Service Force Centre.
