(fig. 7) which has 3 positions marked on
the bezel, these are:
– Symbol ●: tap closed (burner off)
– Symbol : High (maximum)
– Symbol : Low (minimum)

How to use the Burners
CHOICE OF BURNER
The burner must be chosen according to
the diameter of the pots and energy
required.
The hotplate has been designed with
safety in mind, however normal care in
use should be observed. Do take care
avoid burns and scalds when reaching
across the hotplate. Pans with flat bases
are more stable than those which are
warped.
Saucepans with handles which are
excessively heavy, in relationship to the
weight of the pan, are safer as they are
less likely to tip. Pans which are
positioned centrally on burners are more
stable than those which are offset. It is
far safer to position the pan handles in
such a way that they cannot be
accidentally knocked.
When deep fat frying fill the pan only one
third full of oil. DO NOT cover the pan
with a lid and DO NOT leave the pan
unattended. In the infortunate event of a
fire, leave the pan where it is and turn
off all controls. Place a damp cloth or
correct fitting lid over the pan to smother
the flames. DO NOT use water on the
fire. Leave the pan to cool for at least 30
minutes.

After each cleaning, make sure that the
burner-caps, as well as the burners,
have been well wiped off and
CORRECTLY POSITIONED.
It is essential to check the correct
position of the burner-caps as the least
displacement from the housing may
cause serious problems.

The oven interior and the chromium
plated shelves and runners can be
cleaned by damp soapy cloth. Obstinate
stains can be removed with nylon
scouring pads and gentle, non-abrasive,
liquid cleaner. Provided the oven is
wiped over immediately after roasting,
only the minimum of cleaning should be
necessary.
Care and Maintenance
DOOR GLASS:
The glass of the oven door can be
cleaned with a soft, warm, soapy cloth,
then wiped clean with cold water and
polished with a soft clean cloth. Do not
use scouring pads or anything abrasive
