Introduction

advice contained in this manual. In this way you will be able to make best use of the appliance and also ensure
its lasting efficiency. Keep this booklet for further reference.
Use
Lighting the burners
The control knobs on these models incorporate the ignition and safety device. To light the burners, proceed
as follows:
1. Turn the required knob.
2. Keep the knob pressed down for 3-4 seconds to allow the sparks to ignite the gas coming out of the flame-
spreader and to allow the thermocouple to heat up.
3. After 3-4 seconds release the knob, turning it anticlockwise to adjust the flame as required. If the flame
goes out, repeat the operation from step 1.
Symbols
Circle : cock closed;
large flame : maximum gas delivery;
small flame : minimum gas delivery.
Burner use
For better efficiency and lower gas consumption, use pots of suitable width for the burners, making sure the
flame does not extend beyond the edges (follow the table).
Automatic safety valve
This safety device automatically closes the gas cock in the event one of the burners goes out accidentally as a
result of draughts, a pot spilling over, or a temporary interruption of the gas supply. This device intervenes
approximately 30 seconds after the flame has gone out.
Hob cleaning and maintenance
Before carrying out any hob cleaning or maintenance, always unplug the appliance or disconnect the power
by means of the main switch.
• Stainless steel and enamelled parts will remain pristine if regularly cleaned with water or specific
productsare used, thoroughly drying them afterwards.
• To restore the original lustre, periodically use “Inox Creme Franke” (stainless-steel cleaner) and
“Microfibre Cloth Franke”, available from your dealer or the Franke After-sales Service Centre.
• Never use scouring pads, steel wool, muriatic acid or other products which could scratch or mark the surface.
Do not use steam cleaners.
• Do not leave acid or alkaline substances or rusty iron items on the hob.
• Remove any food residuals deposited during cooking as soon as possible.
• The burners and flame-spreaders can be removed from the hob and cleaned with hot soapy water (never
place in dishwasher); dry thoroughly after cleaning. Make sure the gas outlet zones are perfectly clean.
