To light the burners
To light the burner, press the control knob down completely and
hold down before rotating anti-clockwise to the ‘High’ Flame
position. The ignition device is integrated into the control knob and
is automatically activated by pushing down on the control knob.
After lighting the flame, keep the knob pressed for about 5
seconds: this time is necessary to heat up the thermocouple (D on
page 7) and activate the safety valve, which would otherwise cut
off the gas flow.
In the instance of a power failure, place a lit match near the burner
and proceed as described above. If the flame does not light after
the first attempt, wait 5 minutes for the gas to dissipate before
attempting to re-light the burner.
Once lit, check that the flame is even and turn the control knob to
adjust the flame as required. If the flame is uneven, check that the
'burner head/skirt' and 'burner cap' are correctly positioned. To
turn off the flame, turn the control knob clockwise to the ‘Off’
position ( ). Before removing pots or pans from the
burners, always turn off the flame.

Use and Care

When turning the flame down from the 'High' position (2) to
the 'Low' position (3) only the outer flame turns down.
After this point, the outer flame turns off and the inner flame
begins to turn down until it reaches the 'Low' flame position (4).
When turning the flame up again, the outer flame automatically
relights starting in the 'Low' position (3).
Using the Dual Valve Wok burner (not all models)
The Dual Valve Wok burner has the advantage of providing both
very high or very low heat when needed.
The powerful Dual Flame provides high heat when frying, boiling
or searing is required. It can also be turned to the lowest point
where only the small inner flame remains alight to provide a low
heat for simmering or keeping the dish warm.
Follow the instructions below to light the burner.

For correct use of the hob
For lower gas consumption and better efficiency, use only flat-
bottomed pans of dimensions suitable for the burners, as shown in
the table below. Also, as soon as a liquid comes to the boil take
care to turn the flame down to a level that will just keep it boiling.
Burner Minimum diameter Maximum diameter
Large (rapid) 180mm 220mm
Medium (semi-rapid) 120mm 200mm
Small (auxiliary) 80mm 160mm
Wok 220mm 260mm
The pan supports get hot during normal usage, take care when
operating the control knobs close to the pan supports.
DO NOT use foil on any part of the burners, pan supports or hob.
This is extremely dangerous and can cause explosions.
DO NOT leave cooking unattended. Fats or oils may catch fire if
overheated. Boil overs may cause damage to the cooktop if not
contained immediately.
Using pans which are too large for a particular burner may cause
higher temperatures on other surfaces such as control knobs.

Connection to the gas supply
There are two ways to make the connection to the main gas line:
A. The hotplate can be connected with rigid pipe as specified in
AS/NZS 5601 table 3.1.
B. The hotplate can be connected with a Flexible Hose, which
complies with AS/NZS 1869 (Australian Approved), 10mm ID,
class B or D, no more than 1.2m long and in accordance with
AS/NZS 5601.
WARNING: Ensure that the hose assembly is restrained from
accidental contact with the flue or flue outlet of an underbench
oven and it does not contact the hot surfaces of the hotplate,
oven, dishwasher or other separate appliance that may be
installed underneath or next to the hotplate. The hose should not
be subjected to abrasion, kinking or permanent deformation and
should be able to be inspected along its entire length. Unions
compatible with the hose fittings must be used and connections
tested for gas leaks.
The supply connection point must be accessible with the
appliance installed. Fit the supplied elbow and gasket as shown in
the illustration to the right. The gas inlet
connection has a 1/2" BSP male thread. When
making the connection, take care not to apply
excessive stress by counterbalancing tightening
force. Ensure that the available gas supply is
the same as the gas type label affixed to the
base of the hob. If not, contact Glen Dimplex for
a Gas Conversion Kit. The gas supply pressure
must be adjusted in accordance with the data
label for the gas type. Set the minimum level for
each burner as described on pages 23 & 24.
Natural Gas
The natural gas regulator supplied must be fitted for natural gas.
Ensure the arrow on the regulator points towards the direction of
the gas flow. The test point pressure must be adjusted to 1.00 kPa
with the largest burner operating on maximum flame.
ULPG
Fit the ULPG test point assembly (supplied in the gas conversion
kit). An Australian Approved gas regulator suitable for a supply
pressure of 2.75kPa should be part of the gas tank supply.
