Important to know
Service and repair may only be
performed by the distributor, or by a
service organization approved by the
distributor. Only repair parts delivered
by the distributor may be used.
Please read the warranty.
The hob is only intended for normal
household use. It is important that you
follow the advice given in these
instructions in order to avoid any risk
of damage to persons and objects.
Used for any other purpose invalidates
the guarantee as well as product
liability.
The unit becomes dangerously hot
during use, and remain so for a period
of time. They should therefore be
treated with due respect. Keep children
at a distance.
During deep-fat frying, sauteeing,
melting of butter, etc., one must always
remain near the unit, due to the danger
of fire. In the event of fire the unit
must be shut off immediately (and the
cooker hood as well, if in use).
Put out the fire with a lid. Do never use
water.
Make sure that the unit is shut off
when not in use - the knob should rest
at “0”.
For safety's sake, turn pots and pans so
that handles do not protrude, thus
inviting accidents.
Never place plastic or paper, etc., on
the unit. If the unit should be switched
on by accident, the paper could burn,
plastic melt, etc.
For hygienic and safety reasons the
unit must be kept clean. Grease, oil
and food spills create unpleasant
odours when burnt, and can in some
cases result in open flames.
Read - and adhere to - the users
instructions, as well as any instructions
and warnings printed on the labels of
the cleaning agents used.
Help to avoid accidents; if the unit
should ever be discarded, render it
useless by removing the cable, or by
cutting the cable as close to the unit as
possible.

Our liability is limited to that which is
stipulated by law, and covers only
damage to persons and property, which

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 -

The wok-unit has a special pan support
which enables use of a wok pot with
curved bottom.
When using cooking utensils with a
flat bottom the diameter of the utensils
must not be less than 26 cm.

Maintenance and cleaning
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.
The hob with the stainless steel top
plate is to be washed with ordinary
soap and water. Dry thoroughly to
avoid lime stains. Any such stains may
be removed with vinegar or whiting
dissolved in spirit.
Avoid saucepans boiling over. If you
have been so unfortunate as to get
water in the burner this water should
be removed before re-igniting the
burner, e.g. with a no-fluff cloth.
14
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.
