Installation Instructions

Control of the hob burners
The knob has 3 positions: Off (0), max (big flame
symbol) and min (small flame symbol). After you ignite
the burner in max. position; you can adjust the flame
length between max. and min. positions. Do not
operate the burners when the knob position is
between max. and off positions.
After the ignition, check the flames visually. If you see
yellow tips, lifted or unstable flames; turn the gas flow
off, and check the assembly of burner caps and
crowns. Also, make sure that no liquid has flown into
the burner cups. If the burner flames go out
accidentally, turn the burners off, ventilate the kitchen
with fresh air, and do not attempt re-ignition for 90
sec.
When turning the hob off, turn the knob in the
clockwise direction so that the knob shows "0"
position or the marker on the knob points upwards.
Your hob has burners of different diameters. The most
economic way of using gas is too choose the correct
size gas burners for your cooking pan size and to
bring the flame to minimum position once the boiling
point is reached. It is recommended to always cover
your cooking pan.
In order to obtain maximum performance from the
main burners, use pots with the following flat bottom
diameters. Using smaller pots than the minimum
dimensions stated below will cause energy loss.
Rapid Burner: 22-26cm
Medium Burner: 14-22cm
Auxiliary Burner: 12-18cm
Make sure that the tips of the flames do not spread
out of the outer circumference of the pan, as this
may also harm the plastic accessories around the pan
(handles etc.).
When the burners are not in use for prolonged
periods, always turn the main gas control valve off..
WARNING:
Use only flat pans and with a sufficiently thick base
Ensure that the base of the pan is dry before placing
it on the burners.
The temperature of accessible parts may be high
when the appliance is operating. So it is imperative to
keep children and animals out of the reach of the
burners during and after cooking.
After use, the hob remains very hot for a prolonged
period of time, do not touch it and do not place any
object on top of the hob.
Never place knives, forks, spoons and lids on the hob
as they will get hot and could cause serious burns.
