Description of the Hob

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.

Operation

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.

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

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 maximum position

(), then push it down to ignite the burner. Upon ignition, adjust the flame

as required.

If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero, 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 event of a power failure the burners can still be lit using a match or

battery operated sparker. In this case, put a lit match or sparker to the

desired burner. Push the relevant control knob down and turn it anti-clockwise

until it reaches the “maximum” position. The burner should now light.

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 the

diagram.

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.

Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is recommended that a

cleaning product such as Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend is used.

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.

Maintenance and Cleaning

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

The gas ring burns unevenly

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.

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

in-guarantee 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.
