INSTALLATIONS INSTRUCTIONS
BENCH TOP FIXINGS
The Hotplate unit is fixed to the work top by metal clamps with a
self-adhesive rubber seal between the unit and the work top.
Ensure that the self-adhesive seal is adhered to the underside of
the unit surface and near as possible to the outer edge of the unit
as illustrated in Figs. 3. Secure the Hotplate to the work top by
means of the fixing clamps and ensure that the joint between the
unit and the work top is airtight by tightening the fixing clamps.
The clamps supplied are suitable for work tops with thickness from
25 to 40 mm. (1 in. to 1 9/16 in).
When the appliance is installed so that the base can be touched,
we recommend fitting a protecting shield.This shield must project
at least 20mm from the lower part of the appliance and be capable
of withstanding the appliance temperatures.
Manual ignition
To light the burner, place a lighted match near the burner and turn
the appropriate knob anticlockwise to the low position (marked
with a small flame symbol ) If burner does not ignite repeat
the procedure. To adjust the burner to the full-on position, turn
the control knob clockwise to the appropriate setting (marked with
a large flame symbol ).
Automatic electric ignition (on some models)
To light the burner of the hob selected for cooking, push in the
corresponding knob and turn in the direction to the fully on position
; when pressed fully in, the spark will be generated automatically,
igniting the burner.
To adjust the burner to the full-on position, turn the control knob
clockwise to the appropriate setting (marked with a large flame
symbol ).
Where this appliance is installed in marine craft or in caravans,
it shall NOT be used as a space heater".
To turn the burner OFF, turn the control knob clockwise to the
OFF setting (marked with a dot ).
APPLIANCES WITH SAFETY VALVE
Follow the same procedure described above to ignite the burners.
In this case, however, once you have turned the knob to the open
setting, hold it pressed in for 10 seconds. If for any reason the
burner flame goes out, the safety valve automatically shuts off
the gas supply to the burner in question.
It is recommended that pans suitable to the size of the burner
should de used as follows:
Large burner..................................................................13-24 cm
Small burner..................................................................13-20 cm
Auxiliary burner .............................................................12-18 cm
WARNING
It is not recommended to press push button for ignition if all the
burners are not located in the proper positions. The burner heads,
burner skirts and pan supports are removable for better cleaning:
Always ensure that the burner skirts and heads are replaced
correctly so that the burners function safely and correctly.
During the use of the appliance pay attention that water or any
liquid does not enter into the appliance through the holes of the
burners or around the rods of the valves or the push button
electronic lighter.

gas hotplate screening plate
Always use pans with all flat base diameter, which are well
balanced and stable in use, a pan which overhangs the hotplate
should not be used. Avoid using old, misshapen pans, or pans
which are unstable when placed on a flat surface. Do not use
“split pans” as they are inherently unstable.
To save gas, always position pans centrally over the burners and
adjust the flames so that they do not lick up the sides of the
panand only the base is heated. Always put lids on a saucepans
and boil only the amount of liquid you use. When the liquid has
boiled adjust the setting to maintain a simmer.
Do not light the burner until the pan is in position and turn off the
burner before removing the pan. In hard water areas, descale
kettles regularly. For safety, keep saucepan handles turned to a
safe position so they are out of reach of small children and cannot
be accidentally knocked.
