2.3. ADAPTING THE HOB TO DIFFERENT
TYPES OF GAS
To adapt the Hob for use with different types of gas, carry out the
following instructions:
•remove the grids and burners
•insert on hexagonal spanner (7 mm) into the burner support (Figure
7)
•Unscrew the injector and replace it with one suitable for the gas to be
used (see gas type table)
2.4. REGULATING THE MINIMUM FLAME
After lighting the burners, turn the control knob to the minimum setting
and then remove the knob (this can easily be removed by applying
gentle pressure).
Using a small «Terminal» type screwdriver the regulating screw can
be adjusted as in Figure 9. Turning the screw clockwise reduces the
gas flow, whilst turning it anticlockwise increases the flow – Use this
adjustment to obtain a flame of approximately 3 to 4 mm in length and
then replace the control knob.
When the gas supply available is LPG - the screw to set the idle flame
must be turned (clockwise) to the end stop.
When you have carried out the new gas regulation, replace the old gas
rating plate on your appliance with one (supplied with hob) suitable for
the type of gas for which it has been regulated.
3. USE OF HOB - USER INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must only be used for the purpose for which it is
intended, domestic cooking, and any other use will be considered
improper and could therefore be dangerous. The Manufacturer will
not be responsible for any damage or loss resulting from improper
use.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
3.1. USING THE GAS BURNER
To ignite the burners, place a lighted taper close to the burner, press in
and turn the control knob anti-clockwise.
If the burners have not been used for a couple of days, wait for a few
seconds before lighting the burner, this will allow any air present in the
pipes to escape.
For appliances fitted with electronic ignition carry out the following:
• push in and turn the knob anticlockwise to the ignition symbol.
• ignite the burner by pressing the sparker button.
For hobs fitted with automatic ignition simply push in and turn the knob
to the ignition symbol.
The ignition system will continue to generate sparks as long as the
control knob is being pressed.
If the burner has not ignited within 5 seconds, turn the knob to the 0
position and repeat the operation.
For models fitted with a safety tap (which cuts-off the flow of gas if the
flame is accidentally extinguished) the burners are ignited and
described above, but care must be taken.
Prior to switching on the gas hob ensure that the burners and burner
caps are correctly placed within their position.
GENERAL ADVISE
For best results, use cooking vessels with a flat surface. The size of
the surface should match the gas burner side as follows. Table A.
For smaller containers the gas burner should be regulated so that the
flame does not overlap the base of the pan. Vessels with a concave or
convex base should not be used.
WARNING: If a flame is accidentally extinguished, turn the knob
to the off position and do not attempt to re-ignite if for at least 1
minute.
If over the years the gas taps become stiff to turn it is necessary to
lubricate them.
Such operation must be carried out only by qualified Service
Engineers.

Suitability of Cooking Pans (Figure 11)
Keep in mind that larger pans have larger heating surfaces.
This will help them to cook the food faster than pans with smaller
heating surfaces.
Always use pan sizes proportionate to the amount of the food to be
cooked. In order to prevent splashing, do not use very small pans,
especially for foods with excess liquid. If you use excessively large
pans for quick cooked foods, sausages and liquids will stick and
residues will remain attached to the pan after being emptied.
Closed pans and baking trays or moulds are suggested for cooking
sweets. Splashed sugar and juices from an open pan may stick to the
cooker surface and will be difficult to remove.
This is especially important for pans used for roasting or pressurized
cooking at high temperature.
Do not leave burners unattended without a pan or with an empty pan
on top.
Check the suitability of cooking pans with respect to the following
criteria;
They should be heavy.
They should completely cover the burner surface; they may be a little
bigger but no smaller.
Base surfaces should be completely flat and fit well on the cooking
surface.
•For the best use of the electric hotplates and to minimize energy
consumption, only pans with smooth flat bases should be used. The
size of the pan should be as close as possible to the diameter of the
hotplate, and never smaller. The base of the pan should be dry and
spillage should be avoided. Empty pans must not be left on the plates,
and the plates should not be left switched on without a pan.
Turn the knob to the position for the required temperature of the hot
plate. The indicator light of the hot plate will come on and the hot plate
will start to heat.
When cooking is completed, turn the knob to the “ O” position. (Figure
10). Do not leave the hot plate turned on without a pan on it. The
diameter and the base of the pan you use is critical. The maximum
diameter of the pan base is 14 cm and the base should be flat.
Leave the hot plate to heat up for 5 minutes before placing a pan on it
the first time you use it. This will allow the heat resistant coating of the
plate to harden due to burning.
Use a wet cloth and detergent for cleaning the hot plates. Do not
remove food residues from the hot plates with a knife or any other
hard, sharp object.
Turn on the hot plate for a few moments to dry it after cleaning.
However, it must never be left on for more than a few moments without
a pan on top.
