Causes of damage en
Causes of damage
Causesofdamage Caution!
–Risk of heat damage to adjacent appliances or
kitchen units: If the appliance is in operation for
an extended period, heat and moisture will be
generated. Additional ventilation is required.Open
the window or switch on an extractor hood that
discharges the extracted air and moisture outside
the building.
–Risk of damage to the appliance due to the build-
up of heat: Do not heat roasters, frying pans or
grill stones using more than one burner at a time.
–Malfunction: Always turn the control knob to the
"Off" position when the appliance is not being

Environmental protection
Environmentalprotecti on The sections below list a number of energy-saving tips
and provide information on disposing of your appliance.
Saving energy
▯Choose a burner of roughly the same size as your
pan. Place the cookware in the middle.
▯Use small saucepans for small quantities. Using a
large saucepan with little in it consumes a lot of
energy.
▯Always place suitable lids on saucepans. Cooking
without a lid consumes significantly more energy.
Use a glass lid so that you can see into the pan
without having to lift the lid.
▯Cook with only a little water. This will save energy
and preserve the vitamins and minerals in
vegetables.
▯Switch to a lower heat setting in good time. This will
save energy.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly
manner.
This appliance is labelled in accordance
with European Directive 2012/19/EU
concerning used electrical and electronic
appliances (waste electrical and electronic
equipment - WEEE). The guideline

Operating the appliance en
Operating the appliance
Operatingtheappliance Notes
– Only use the accessories specified. Do not line the
stainless steel recess (e.g. with aluminium foil).
– Do not cover the ventilation openings on the back
of the control panel.
– The burner and ignition plug must be clean and dry.
– Only light the burners if the pan supports and all
burner parts are correctly fitted.
– To ignite a burner, firmly press the control knob
down as far as possible and hold it there, then turn
it to the required position.
– Once ignited, press and hold the control knob for
approx. 2 to 4 seconds to enable the heat sensor
that opens the gas flow to heat up first.
– If the flame does not ignite within 2 to 4 seconds,
turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the lowest
setting and, once ignited, turn it back to the highest
setting. It can often be quicker to ignite the burner
in the lowest setting because different gases have
different ignition characteristics.
– When one burner is ignited, an ignition spark will
also be generated at all the other burners.
– Do not touch the ignition plug while the gas
appliance is being lit.
– It is important to keep the appliance clean. If the
ignition plugs are dirty, this may cause ignition
problems. Clean the ignition plugs regularly with a
small, non-metallic brush. Take care to prevent the
ignition plugs from suffering any heavy knocks.
Switching on
This appliance is equipped with a step valve. The
markings on the control knob show you the output from
power levels from 1 to 9.
Your gas hob comes with ignition plugs for electrical
ignition.
1Place a suitable item of cookware on the pan
support.
2Push in the control knob for your chosen burner
and turn it clockwise to the power level you require.
The burner ignites automatically.
Turn the control knob to set the power level.
Caution!
Damage to the appliance
Never try to turn the control knob directly from position
0 to position 1, or from position 1 directly to position 0.
Doing this will damage the step valve.
mWarning – Risk of deflagration!
If the burner does not ignite after 15 seconds, switch off
the control knob and open the door or window in the
room. Wait at least 1 minute before igniting the burner
again.
Switching on manually
During a power cut you can ignite the burners manually.
1Place a suitable pot or pan on the pot grid.
2Press the corresponding control knob and turn it
anticlockwise to the required setting. Keep the
control knob pressed.
3Use a gas lighter or a match to ignite the burner.
Keep the control knob pressed for a few seconds
after ignition.
Note: The indicator on the illuminated ring remains off.
Thermoelectric flame monitoring
For your safety, the hob is fitted with thermoelectric
flame monitoring. This prevents the flow of gas if the
burner accidentally goes out while it is in use (e.g. due
to draughts).
If the burner accidentally goes out while it is in use, turn
the control knob to the 0 position and wait at least one
minute before you ignite the burner again.
Switching off
Turn the control knob clockwise to position 0.
mWarning – Risk of burns!
When the appliance cover is closed, heat will
accumulate. Only close the appliance cover when the
appliance has cooled down. Never switch the appliance
on with the appliance cover closed. Do not rest food on
the appliance cover or use it to keep food warm.
Residual heat indicator
After switching off the appliance, the illuminated ring on
the control knob slowly flashes orange until the
appliance has cooled enough for it to be safe to touch.
Do not touch the appliance while the residual heat
indicator is flashing.

Tips for cooking and roasting
The values given in the settings table must be looked
upon as recommended values. The heat required
depends not only on the type and condition of the food,
but also the size and contents of the pot.
Due to the high performance of the cooktop, fat and oil
will heat up quickly. Never leave the cooktop
unattended, fat can ignite, food can burn.
Preferably use the rear cooking zones to prepare meals,
that need longer to cook.
Preferably use the high output burners for brief
cooking, deep fat frying and searing of large quantities.

colocados sobre fogones de gas
encendidos, se calentarán en exceso. No
calentar nunca recipientes para cocinar
vacíos.
¡Peligro de quemaduras!
▯Si la botella de gas líquido no está en
posición vertical, el propano/butano
líquido puede llegar al interior del aparato,
por lo que puede causar llamas vivas en los
quemadores. Con el tiempo, los
componentes pueden dañarse y perder
estanqueidad, de modo que puede
escaparse gas. Ambos casos pueden
producir quemaduras. Utilizar botellas de
gas líquido siempre en posición vertical.

Protección del medio ambiente
Proteccióndel medioambiente Aquí se ofrecen consejos sobre cómo ahorrar energía e
indicaciones para la eliminación del aparato.
Ahorro de energía
▯Escoger el quemador adecuado para el tamaño de
la olla. Colocar el recipiente para cocinar centrado.
▯Utilizar una olla pequeña para cantidades
reducidas. Una olla grande y poco llena requiere
mucha energía.
▯Utilizar siempre la tapa correspondiente a cada
olla. Cuando se cocina sin tapa, se necesita
bastante más energía. Utilizar una tapa de cristal
para poder tener visibilidad sin necesidad de
levantarla.
▯Al cocer, utilizar poca agua. De este modo se
ahorra energía. Se conservan todas las vitaminas y
minerales de las verduras.
▯Reducir cuando corresponda y usar un nivel menor
de potencia. Así se ahorra energía.
Eliminación de residuos respetuosa
con el medio ambiente
Eliminar el embalaje de forma ecológica.
