3. CLEANING
Applicable for Gas
CAST IRON OR ENAMELLED PARTS
In order to clean the hotplate, burner caps and pan supports on your hob, please use a soft cloth and
hot, soapy water.
Stubborn stains can be removed with a non-abrasive cleaning agent, so as not to damage the enamel
surface.
NOTE: The enamelled pan supports can also be cleaned safely in the dishwasher.
STAINLESS STEEL
To clean the hotplate surface, clean with a cloth soaked in hot, soapy water and then dry with a soft
cloth to avoid scratching.
PLASTIC
To clean the control knobs, wipe clean with a damp, soapy cloth.
GLASS
A non-abrasive cleaner should be used on glass surfaces.
Any abrasive cleaner (including Cif) will scratch the surface and could erase the control panel markings.
Glass can be effectively cleaned by simply using a dilute solution of water and mild detergent and
drying to a shine with a clean cloth.
CONTROL KNOBS
The control knobs may be removed for thorough cleaning, if necessary, but ensure not to
damage the seal.

Remove all packaging and make sure the appliance is in perfect condition.
If you have any doubts, do not use the appliance and call your supplier.
Some parts on the appliance are protected by a plastic film. This protective film must be removed
before the appliance is used. The packaging materials should be carefully discarded and not left within
easy reach of children as they are a potential hazard.
INSTALLING AND FIXING THE HOB (RGI qualified personnel only)
The appliance can be fitted to any worktop with a thickness of 40mm or 50mm.
No overhanging surface or cooker hood should be closer to the hob than 650mm.
Fix the appliance in position (Fig. 4). The sides of the adjacent cabinets above may be lower than
650mm down to 400mm, provided they are heat and steam resistant.
These hobs are supplied with a special seal which prevents liquids from seeping underneath the
appliance. Follow these instructions in order to correctly fit this seal:
Air inlet minimum section: 100cm2
UNPACKING THE APPLIANCE
4. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
a) Prior to installation, ensure that the local distribution conditions (nature of the gas and gas pressure)
and the adjustment of the appliance are comptaible;
b) The adjustment conditions for this appliance are tated on the label(or data plate);
c) This appliance is not connected to a combustion products evacuation device, It shall be installed and
connectd in accordance with current installation regulations. Particular attention shall be given to the
relevant requirements regarding ventilation
INSTALLATION LOCATION
The appliance may be located in a kitchen, kitchen/diner or utility room, however, it cannot be in a room
containing a bath or shower. The hob must not be installed in a bed-sitting room of less than 20m3.
LPG models must never be installed in a room or internal space below ground level, i.e. in a basement.
PROVISION FOR VENTILATION
The room containing the appliance should have an air supply in accordance with BS5440: Part 2.
The room must have an opening window or equivalent, some rooms may also require a permanent
vent. If the room has a volume between 5-10m3, it will require an air vent of 50cm2effective area,
unless it has a door which opens directly to the outside. If the room has a volume of less than 5m3, it
will require an air vent of 100cm2effective area (Fig. 1). If there are other fuel burning appliances in the
same room, BS5440: Part 2 should be consulted to determine air vent requirements.
NOTE: The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in
which it is installed. Always ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated; keep natural ventilation holes
open or install a mechanical ventilation device (fig 2).
When using more than one hotplate at once, open a window if a mechanical extractor is not present or
working (Fig. 3).

The recommended method is to fix a wooden panel within the
cabinet at a distance of 15mm below
the underside of the hob (Fig. 6).
This panel must have adequate ventilation to the rear.
Unit: mm
NOTE: The panel underneath the hob must be easily removable to allow for any servicing requirements.
INSERTING AND FIXING THE HOB
INSTALLATION OPTIONS
Detach the seals from their backing ensuring that the transparent protection still adheres to the seal.
Turn the hob over and correctly position seal *S* (Fig. 5) under the edge of the hob so that the outer
part of the seal perfectly matches the outer edge of the hob. The ends of the strips must fit together
without overlapping. Fix the seal to the hob evenly and securely, pressing it firmly in place.
Ventilation slot ≥ 30mm.

In the case of built-in hotplates, where the manufacturer specifies that a horizontal separation shall be
included below the base of the hotplate, the critical dimensions of this separation. In addition, the
minimum distance declared shall not exceed 150mm;
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening of a
window or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of machanical ventilation where
present.
CAUTION: Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away.
CAUTION: This appliance is for cooking purposes only. It must not be used for other purposes, for
example room heating.
When fitting a gas hob above a drawer or a standard housing unit, suitable precautions must be
taken to prevent contact with the hotplate surface as it can become very hot during operation.
Before inserting the hob into the work surface, please follow the below instructions:
1) Remove the pan stands and burner caps before turning the hob upside down, taking care not to
damage the ignition plugs and thermocouples.
2) Place the seal “S” around the bottom edge of the hob as shown in the illustration below.
3) Place the hob in the installation opening and push it down so that the hob is resting firmly on the
worktop.
4) Secure the hob in position using the fixing brackets supplied. Screw one end of the bracket into the
pre-drilled holes in the underside of the hob. The other end of the bracket should be located
underneath the worktop to secure the hob in position.

GAS CONNECTION (RGI qualified personnel only)
The appliance has an G 1/2" threaded pipe connector to connect it to the gas
system. Please ensure that the connection is made using a rigid pipe.
When making the gas connection, it is important to place the gasket (A) in
between the inlet pipe (C) and the elbow (B) to ensure a tight gas seal (Fig. 8).
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The appliance must be connected to the mains supply by a qualified gas
engineer using fixed wiring via a double pole switched fused spur outlet protected by a 3A fuse and with
a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles. We recommend that the appliance is connected by a
qualified electrician who is a member of the N.I.C.E.I.C. and will comply with I.E.T. and local regulations.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Green & Yellow =
Earth, Blue = Neutral, Brown = Live.

NATURAL GAS TO LPG CONVERSION
This conversion must only be carried out by a competent person (i.e. a Gas Safe registered fitter).
Instructions to fit replacement injectors:
1. Disconnect the appliance from the gas and electrical supplies.
2. Remove burner components “B” and pan supports (Fig. 9).
3. Remove the injectors “A” (Fig. 9) with a socket spanner and replace with the corresponding injectors.
Setting up minimum flow rates:
1. Turn on the LPG supply, light the burners and turn the controls to the minimum position as indicated
by the small flame symbol.
2. Remove the control knobs “M” (Fig. 10).
3. Insert a small screwdriver “D” (Fig. 10) into the hole at the top of the tap “C” and turn the adjustment
screw left or right until the flame of the burner is conveniently regulated to the low position.
4. Make sure when turning quickly from maximun position to minimum position that the flame does not
extinguish.
5. Replace the knobs “M”.
