GAS COOKING HOBS

GAS BURNERS

Gas flow to the burners is adjusted by turning the knob (illustrated in fig. 2.1) which control the safety valves.

Turning the knob so that the indicator line points to the symbols printed on the panel achieves the following functions:

✓ full circle

●

= closed valve

✓ symbol = maximum aperture or flow

✓ symbol = minimum aperture or flow

To light one of the gas burners, hold a flame (e.g. a match) close to the top part of the burner, push in and turn the relative knob in an anti-clockwise direction, pointing the knob indicator towards the large flame symbol (i.e.

max. gas flow).

To reduce the gas flow to minimum, rotate the knob further anti-clockwise to point the indicator towards the small flame symbol.

The maximum aperture position permits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas the minimum aperture position allows slower warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of liquids.

Other intermediate operating adjustments can be achieved by positioning the indicator between the maximum and minimum aperture positions, and never between the maximum aperture and closed positions.

6

The device shall not be operated for more than 15 seconds. If after 15 seconds the burner has not lit, stop operating the device and open the compartment door and/or wait at least 1 minute before attempting a further ignition of the burner.

N.B. When the cooker top is not being used, set the gas knobs to their closed positions and also close the cock valve on the gas bottle or the main gas supply line.

VALVELESS ELECTRIC SPARK-

LIGHTING GAS BURNERS

To light one of the gas burners, push in and turn the relative knob to the maximum aperture position (large flame symbol) and hold the knob in until the flame has been lit.

The sparks produced by the lighter situated inside the relative burner will light the flame.

In the event that the local gas supply conditions makes it difficult to light the burner in maximum aperture position, try again with the knob in minimum position.

LIGHTING GAS BURNERS

FITTED WITH SAFETY VALVE

DEVICE

In order to light the burner, you must:

1 – Turn the knob fig. 2.2 in anti-clockwise direction up to the maximum aperture, push in and hold the knob; this will light the gas. If there is no mains electrical supply, bring a lighted match close to the burner.

2 – Wait about ten seconds after the gaslights before releasing the knob

(starting time for the valve).

3 – Adjust the gas valve to the desired position.

If the burner flame should go out for some reason, the safety valve will automatically stop the gas flow.

To re-light the burner, first turn the oven control knob to position ● , wait for at least 1 minute and then repeat the lighting procedure.

CHOICE OF BURNER

(fig. 2.3)

The symbols printed on the panel beside the gas knobs indicate the correspondence between the knob and the burner.

The most suitable burner is to be chosen according to the diameter and volume capacity of the container to be warmed.

It is important that the diameter of the pots or pans suitably match the heating potential of the burners in order not to jeopardise the efficiency of the burners, bringing about a waste of gas fuel.

A small diameter pot or pan placed on a large burner does not necessarily mean that boiling conditions are reached quicker.

Caution!

the cooking hob becomes very hot during operation.

Keep children well out of reach.

PROPER USE OF THE ELEC-

TRIC HOTPLATE

(fig. 3.2)

When the pan comes to the boil, turn the heat down to the level desired.

Remember that the hotplate will continue to produce heat for about five minutes after it has been turned off.

While using the electric hotplate, you must:

✓ avoid keeping it on without something on it;

✓ avoid pouring liquids on it while it is hot;

✓ use flat-bottomed (electric hotplate type) pots and pans only

✓ use cooking receptacles which cover as much of the surface of the hotplate as possible.

✓ to save electricity, use lids whenever possible.

✓ never cook food directly on the hotplate: always use a pan or suitable container.

An indicator light located on the control panel signals that the hotplate is operating

RAPID HOTPLATE (red dot)

The rapid hotplate control knob is similar to that of the normal hotplate, with 6 selectable heating positions (fig. 3.1).

The characteristics of this hotplate, which is also equipped with a thermostatic cut-off device, make it possible to:

– achieve the cooking temperature rapidly

– make full use of its output power using flat-bottomed pans

– limit the output power with unsuitable saucepans.

VITROCERAMIC HOB

The main characteristic of this pyroceram cooker top is that it permits rapid vertical transmission of the heat from the heating elements below to the saucepans on top.

The heat does not spread horizontally, however, and therefore the glass stays cold only a few centimetres from the hob.

The hobs are controlled by the continuous energy regulation switch (0÷12) (fig.

4.1).

The heat intensity can be regulated continuously from 0 (off) to “12” (max).

Check that the hob is clean and then switch on by turning the control knob

When the top is working, the pilot light will be on.

When the hob temperature is above

60°C, the corresponding indicator light will come on to indicate that the hob is hot.

This light will stay on even after the hob has been switched off to indicate that the hob is still hot.

The residual heat persists for some time after the hob has been switched off.

During this time avoid touching the hob and take particular care if there are children nearby.

The light will go out automatically when the hob temperature drops below 60°C.

“Hi-light” radiant zones

(Fig. 4.2)

The heating element is formed of a coil of resistant material which reaches the working temperature quickly.

Operation of the cooking zone is controlled by a continuous energy regulator from 1 (minimum position) to 12 (maximum temperature).

HINTS FOR SAFE USE OF

THE HOBS

– Before switching on, check which knob controls the required hob. You are advised to place the saucepan on the hob before switching on and to take it off after switching off.

– Use saucepans with an even flat bottom (be careful of cast iron saucepans). Uneven bottoms can scratch the pyroceram surface. Check that the bottom is clean and dry.

– Check that the saucepan handle does not protrude from the top to avoid knocking it over. This precaution also makes it more difficult for children to reach the saucepan.

– Do not use the top if the surface is broken or damaged.

– Do not bend over the hobs when they are on.

– Do not leave aluminium foil, greaseproof paper etc. or plastic on the hob when it is hot.

– Remember that the hobs stay hot for quite a long time (approx. 30 min.) after they have been switched off.

– Scrupulously follow the cleaning instructions.

– Do not drop heavy or sharp objects on the glass ceramic cooktop.

– If you note a crack in the cooktop, switch the appliance off immediately and call the After-Sales

Service.

– Never cook the food directly on the glass ceramic cooktop, but in special pans or containers.

CHOOSING SUITABLE

SURROUNDINGS

(for gas models)

The room where the gas appliance is to be installed must have a natural flow of air so that the gas can burn (in compliance with the current laws in force).

The flow of air must come directly from one or more openings made in the outside walls with a free area of at least

100 cm 2 .

If the appliance does not have a noflame safety device this opening must have an area of at least 200 cm 2 .

The openings should be near the floor and preferably on the side opposite the exhaust for combustion products and must be so made that they cannot be blocked from either the outside or the outside.

When these openings cannot be made, the necessary air can come from an adjacent room which is ventilated as required, as long as it is not a bedroom or a danger area (in compliance with the current laws in force).

In this case, the kitchen door must allow the passage of the air.

DISCHARGING PRODUCTS

OF COMBUSTION

Extractor hoods connected directly to the outside must be provided, to allow the products of combustion in the gas appliance to be discharged (fig. 6.6).

If this is not possible, an electric fan may be used, attached to the external wall or the window; the fan should have a capacity to circulate air at an hourly rate of 3-5 times the total volume of the kitchen (fig. 6.7).

The fan can only be installed if the room has suitable vents to allow air to enter, as described under the heading

“Choosing suitable surroundings” (in compliance with the current laws in force).

ROTATION OF THE ELBOW

The appliance is supplied with a gas connection oriented towards the centre of the cooking hob.

The connection to the gas supply must be effected only from this side or in vertical position by turning the elbow downwards.

To turn the elbow, follow these operations:

✓ loosen the nut

✓ turn the elbow

✓ lock the nut

✓ make sure that there are no leakages by a soapy solution

IMPORTANT:

✓ Never attempt to turn the elbow

“A” without having first slackened off the relative lock nipple.

✓ The seals “D-E-F” (fig. 7.1) are the elements that guarantees the seal in the gas connection.

It is recommended that they be replaced whenever they shows even the slightest deformation or imperfection.

✓ After connecting to the mains, check that the couplings are correctly sealed, using soapy solution, but never a naked flame.

✓ The connection with rigid metal pipes should not cause stresses to the hob ramp.

✓ If the rubber tube is used for the gas connection:

- Make sure the tube is snugly fit at both ends and use a standard tube clamp (not supplied) to fasten it.

- The rubber tube must be as short as possible, without contractions or kinks.

- The rubber tube must never be at any point in its lenght in contact with the “hot” parts.

- From time to time check to make sure that the rubber is in perfect condition and substitute it at printed due date or if it shows signs of wearing or damage.

ADAPTING THE APPLIANCE

TO FUNCTION WITH DIF-

FERENT TYPES OF GAS

If a gas different from that indicated on the label is used, adapt the cooktop to this new function.

If the injectors are not supplied they can be obtained from the “Service

Centre”.

Select the injectors to be replaced according to the table at page 27).

The nozzle diameters, expressed in hundredths of a millimetre, are marked on the body of each injector.

OPERATIONS TO BE PER-

FORMED WHEN SUBSTITUT-

ING THE INJECTORS

✓ Remove the gratings, the burner covers and the knobs;

✓ Using a wrench substitute the nozzle injectors “J” (Fig. 7.3 - 7.4) with those most suitable for the kind of gas for which it is to be used.

The burner are conceived in such a way so as not to require the regulation of the primary air.

REGULATING THE BURNER

MINIMUM SETTING

When switching from one type of gas to another, the minimum flow rate must also be correct: the flame should not go out even when passing suddenly from maximum to minimum flame.

To regulate the flame follow the instructions below:

– Light the burner

– Set the cock valve to minimum

On gas valves provided with adjustment screw in the centre of the shaft

(fig. 7.5):

– Using a screwdriver with max. diameter 3 mm, turn the screw inside the tap until the correct setting is obtained.

On gas valves provided with adjust-

ment screw on the valve body (fig. 7.6):

– Turn the screw “A” to the correct setting with a screwdriver.

For G 30/G 31 gas, tighten the adjustment screw completely.

LUBRICATING THE GAS TAPS

If one of the gas taps becomes difficult to turn, dismantle it, thoroughly clean with petrol and apply special high-temperature grease.

These operations must be performed by a specialised engineer.

ELECTRICAL SECTION

IMPORTANT: Installation has to be carried out according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer.

Incorrect installation might cause harm and damage to people, animals or objects, for which the manufacturer accepts no responsibility.

DETAILS

✓ Connection to the electric power supply must be carried out by a qualified technician and following the appropriate safety regulations;

✓ Before carrying out the connection to the power supply, the voltage rating of the appliance (stamped on the appliance identification plate) must be checked for correspondence to the available mains supply voltage, and the mains electric wiring should be capable of handling the cooker’s power rating (also indicated on the identification plate);

✓ The appliance is supplied without a power supply plug and therefore if you are not connecting directly to the mains, a standardized plug suitable for the load must be fitted.

✓ The power point must be connected to a suitable earth wiring, in conformity to current safety regulations.

✓ The colours of the wires in the hob power cable may not correspond with the colours marked on the terminals of your electrical plug. The plug should in any case be wired as follows:

– connect the green/yellow wire to the terminal marked with the letter PE or the earth symbol or coloured green/yellow;

– connect the blue wire to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured black;

– connect the brown wire to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured red.

✓ It is possible to connect the appliance directly to the mains supply by means of a heavy duty switch with 3 mm minimum distance between the contacts.

✓ The power supply cord must not touch against any hot surfaces and must be placed so that its temperature does not exceed 75°C at any point along its length.

✓ After having installed the appliance, the power switch or power plug must always be in a accessible position.

✓ The appliance must have its own supply; any other appliances installed near it must be supplied separately.

– N.B. For connections to the mains power supply, never use adaptors, reductions or multiple power points as these may overheat and catch fire.

In the event that installation should require modifications to the mains supply wiring system, it is recommended that a qualified technician be called to carry out substitution.

The technician will also have to verify that the cross-section of the electric cables on the power point match the appliance’s power rating.

Connection to a good earth wiring system is absolutely essential.

The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any inconvenience caused by failure to comply with this rule.
