outer burner ring forms a space where the
final mixture of gas and air takes place in
order for the gas burn correctly.
Please note: It is very important that the
inner burner ring/outer burner ring is
placed correctly, together with the cover.

fitted the burner will not operate
correctly, and the burner may be damaged
within a short space of time. It is also
important, that the inner air ring is placed
correctly.
Ignition electrode (A)
The burner has been provided with an
ignition electrode. As long as the
operating knob is depressed, the
automatic ignition will ensure that a spark
is emitted between the ignition electrode
and the burner cover.
Thermo couple (B)
The gas unit features fully-secured gas
taps (thermo-couple)
In case the flame goes out, the thermo
couple automatically prevents gas
admission after a few seconds (Max. 90
seconds).

Cleaning and maintenance
For reasons of hygiene and
safety, the cooking burner
must be kept clean.
Grease stains and spilled
food generate smoke when
heated, and can even cause
fire.
Splashguard
The splashguard can be removed to
make it easier to clean the surface.
What to do:
1. Hold the splashguard as shown
in the diagram.
2. Lift the splashguard straight up
3. Clean the top surface as
described in “cleaning the steel
surface”.
Be aware of the two retaining
pegs, which are sharp.
4. Replace the splashguard in
position ENSURE that it is
fitted the correct way round.
Never use hard or sharp
implements to lift off the
splashguard.

Do not wash the splashguard
in a dishwasher.
The hob must not be used
with the splashguard off.

12
Stainless steel surfaces
Perform daily cleaning with a slightly
damp cloth. For more severe soiling,
use a liquid cream. Always clean the
steel in the direction of the steel finish.
To ensure that the steel retains its
shine, it is recommended that you use
a polishing agent for stainless steel on
a regular basis. Always polish in the
direction of the steel finish (cross-
wise).
Never use steel wool, metal sponges or
other abrasive cleaning agents.
The wok
The operating panel with knob, pan
support, top plate and burner
covers/rings are to be cleaned with
ordinary cleaning agents.
However, do not use any kind of
scouring powder.
Avoid saucepans boiling over. If you
have been so unfortunate as to get
water in the burner this water should
be removed before reigniting the
burner, e.g. with a no-fluff cloth.

less than 20 m³. If it is installed in a
room of volume less than 5 m³an
air vent of effective area of 110 cm²
is required. If it is installed in a
room of volume between 5 m³and
10 m³an air vent of effective area of
50 cm²is required, while if the
volume exceeds 11 m³no air vent is
required.
However, if the room has a door
which opens directly to the outside
no air vent is required even if the
volume is between 5 m³and 11 m³.
If there are other fuel burning
appliances in the same room, B.S.

type of kitchen with a table surface
whose thickness is between 28 mm and
40 mm.
Headroom
The distance to any shelves or tops of a
cabinet under the hob is to be at least 47
mm.
Fixing
Screw the fixing brackets out to such an
extent that they can be turned in under
the table top. Tighten the brackets on to
the table top with an ordinary
screwdriver.
Cut-out measurements
One rectangular hole is sawn out for the
hob combination chosen.
The depth of the cut-out for any unit is:
490 mm
Length of hole = sum of all units`
externally measured length, less 20 mm.
Mounting of Reinforcement
Beams

flanges at each end, is included with
each two-burner unit. For unit
combinations, a reinforcement beam
must be used between each unit.

Installation of a single unit
When mounting a single unit, be it a
half-or full size unit, in a
worktopsurface which is thicker than
30 mm, it is necessary to make a
special notch in both sides of the cut-
out hole, as shown in the adjacent
drawing.
The purpose of these notches is to
create space for the electrical cables.

18
Installation of wok burner
It is extremely important that
both the inner and outer
burner rings are fitted
correctly into their “guide
notch”, otherwise the burner
will burn with an incorrect
flame pattern and could be
ruined within a very short
period. You must be able to
hear a click telling you that
the rings have been correctly
fitted.
How to proceed:
1. Fit the air valve in the burner
body. See fig. 1
2. Then fit the inner burner ring,
taking care that the guide pin
engages in the notch. See fig. 2.
