Burner cover/burner ring
Together with the burner ring the burner
cover forms a space where the final
mixture of gas and air takes place in
order to make the gas burn correctly.
Please note: It is consequently very
important that the burner cover/ring is
placed correctly on the burner. The
burner ring has been provided with
holes for the ignition electrode, and the
thermo sensor.
If the burner cover/ring are wrongly
placed the burner will operate
incorrectly, and the burners may be
damaged within at short space of time.
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 Sensor (B)
The hob unit features fully-secured gas
taps (thermo-fuse)
In case the flame goes out, the thermo
sensor automatically prevents gas
admission after a few seconds (max. 90
seconds).
Note: Gas admission is always allowed
while the operation button is pressed -

safety, the cooking burner
must be kept clean.
Grease stains and spilled
food generate smoke when
heated, and can even cause
fire.

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.

11
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.
Cleaning of gas burner
Clean the control panel and knobs plus
the pan grid, as well as burner caps and
rings, with ordinary cleansing agents.
Never use scouring powder, Brillo
pads, metal pads or other scouring
agents on enamelled or painted
surfaces!
Care must be taken to avoid
boil-over
If water accidentally gets into the edge
of the burner head (boil-over) the water
must be removed with a lint-free cloth
before the burner is turned on again.
Likewise, caps and grids must be
thoroughly wiped off before the gas
ring is used again so that the boil-over
does not permanently scar the enamel
or paint.
