USING YOUR APPLIANCE
Igniting the Burners
•To light the burner, turn the gas control knob to the High Flame setting of the burner to
be lit, while at the same time depressing the gas control knob to activate the spark
ignition.
•Once the burner is alight continue to depress the gas control knob for 5-10 seconds to
allow the flame safeguard to activate. If when you release the gas control knob the
burner flame goes out, the flame safeguard has not heated up enough. Repeat the
ignition procedure after waiting one minute for gas to disperse. If problems with burner
lighting persist, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section of these instructions.
•The hotplates are fitted with mains powered electronic spark ignitors, so must be
connected to mains power supply (i.e. nominal 220-240 V ac) to operate. If power is not
available, the hotplate will still work but the burners with have to be lit with a match or
similar.
•Depressing the gas control knob of any burner will activate the spark ignition for all
burners.
•If power is not available, light a match or similar, then turn the gas control knob for the
burner to be lit to the High Flame setting.
•When burner lights, adjust flame height. On finishing, turn control knob to off position
marked with a black DOT.

Burner and Utensil Choice
The maximum utensil (pan) diameters in millimetres (mm) for each burner are:
1. For Natural Gas hotplates:
Auxiliary (small) and Semi-Rapid (medium) = 195mm
Rapid (large) = 230mm
DCC (wok) = 300mm
2. For Universal LPG hotplates:
Auxiliary (small), Semi-Rapid (medium) and Rapid (large) = 195mm
DCC (wok) = 300mm
The minimum utensil (pan) diameters in millimetres (mm) for each burner are:
Auxiliary (small) = 80mm
Semi-Rapid (medium) = 140mm
Rapid (large) and DCC (wok) = 195mm
For best efficiency and to ensure utensil handle does not overheat, place the utensil centrally on
the burner and adjust the flame height so all the flame remains under the utensil.
Do not place anything eg. Flame tamer or asbestos mat between pan and pan
support as serious damage to the appliance may result.
Do not remove the pan support and enclose the burner with a wok stand as this
will concentrate and deflect heat onto the hotplate.
Do not use large pots or heavy weights which can bend the pan support or
deflect flame onto the hotplate.
Locate the pan centrally over the burner so that it is stable and does not
overhang the appliance.
Use only a wok support supplied or recommended by the manufacturer of the
appliance.
