INSTALLATION
This appliance should only be installed by a registered CORGI gas safe
engineer. Before installing the appliance ensure that the area that you have
selected is suitable and allows enough ventilation for the appliance. The
appliance can be tted into a kitchen unit or 600mm wide worktop, providing
that the stated minimum distances are allowed. Ensure that the selected
worktop or unit and all surrounding materials are made of non-ammable
materials. Install a mechanical ventilation device.
1. Remove the pan supports, the burner
lid and ame spreader and carefully turn
the appliance upside down and place it
on a cushioned mat. Take care that the
Ignition devices and ame supervision
devices are not damaged in this operation.
2. Apply the sponge provided around the
edge of the appliance.
3. Do not leave a gap in the sealing agent
or overlap the thickness.

This will make it dicult to remove the
appliance from the aperture in future,
particularly if it needs to be serviced.
Sponge (Sealing Strip)
The thickness of the sponge is 3mm. The width of the sponge is 10mm.
(A) SEALING STRIP
(C)S CREW (B)B RACKET
Do not use a silicon sealant to seal the
appliance against the aperture.
1. Place the bracket (B) over the holes that
match the size of the screws. There is one
set of screw holes in each corner of the
hob (H). Slightly tighten a screw (C) through
the bracket (B) so that the bracket is
attached to the hob, but so that you can still
adjust the position.
2. Carefully turn the hob back over and then
gently lower it into the aperture hole that
you have cut out.
3. On the underneath of the hob, adjust the
brackets into a position that is suitable for
your worktop. Then fully tighten the screws
(C) to secure the hob into position.

• Ret the control knobs to each Gas Tap.
• Test the ame by quickly turning the Control Knob from maximum
to minimum, if the ame goes out then you will need to make further
adjustments to the gas ow.
• Repeat the process again until the gas ow is correct.
WARNING: Do not dismantle the Gas Tap Shaft: In the event of a
malfunction, change the whole tap.

3 – 4mm and does not extinguish when the
Control Knob is turned down to MIN.
• Repeat this procedure for all burners.

11
• Before replacing the Flame Spreader and Burner Cap, ensure that the
Injector is not blocked.
• A full operational test and a test for possible leaks must be carried out after
a gas conversion.
• After completing conversion, the quailied gas engineer will need to mark
“V” on the right gas category to match with the setting on the rating plate.
Remove the previous setting mark.
Positioning
Clearances required when tting the hob with a cooker hood above:
This appliance is to be built into a kitchen unit or 600mm worktop,providing
the following minium distances are allowed
• The edges of the hob must be a minimum distance of 60mm from a side
or rear wall.
• 700mm between the highest point of the hob surface (including the
burners) and the underside of any horizontal surface directly above it.
• 400mm between the hob surfaces, providing that the underside of the
horizontal surface is in line with the outer edge of the hob. If the underside
of the horizontal surface is lower than 400 mm, then it must be at least
50mm away from the outer edges of the hob.

12
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The appliance is tted with a ame failure safety device on each burner,
which is designed to stop the ow of gas to the burner in the event of the
ame going out.
Black Circle: Gas o
Large Flame: Maximum setting
Small Flame: Minimum setting
• To light a burner, press in the relevant control knob and turn in an
anticlockwise direction to the maximum setting.
• Keep the Control Knob depressed, the automatic ignition for the burner
will, automatically ignite the ame.
• 50 mm clearance around the appliance and between the hob surface and
any combustible materials.
• You must have a gap of at least 25mm and at most 74mm between
the underneath of the appliance and any surface that is below it.
- An oven must have forced ventilation to install a hob above it.
- Check the dimensions of the oven in the installation manual.
- The cut out size must obey the indication.

13
• Keep the Control Knob depressed for a further 15 seconds after the
ame has ignited.
• If the ame does not ignite or stay on, then repeat the process.
• The required setting can now be selected by turning the control knob.
• To switch the burner o, turn the Control Knob fully clockwise to the
o position.
• In case of a power cut, the burners can be manually lit by using a match,
although extreme care should be taken.
Important: Once liquids start to boil, reduce the ame so a gentle boil is
reached. This will help prevent over spills.
Choosing the Correct Cookware
The diameter of the bottom of the pan should correspond to that of the
burner.
Important: Do not use cookware that overlaps the edge of the burner.

Safety and Energy Saving
NO YES
Do not use small diameter cookware
on large burners.
The ame should never come up the
sides of the cookware.
Always use cookware that is
suitable for each burner,
to avoid wasting gas and
discolouring the cookware.
Avoid cooking without a lid or with the
lid half o - as this wastes energy Place a lid on the cookware.
Do not use a pan with a convex or
concave bottom.
Only use pots, saucepans and
frying pans with a thick, at
bottom.
Do not place cookware on one side of
a burner,as it could tip over.
Always place the cookware
right over the burners, not to
one side.
Do not use cookware with a large
diameter on the burners near the
controls, which when placed on the
middle of the burner may touch the
controls or be so close to them that they
increase the temperature in this area and
may cause damage.
Never place cookware directly on top
of the burner.
Do not place anything, eg.ame
tamer, asbestos mat, between pan and
pan support as serious damage to the
appliance may result.
Do not use excessive weight and do
not hit the cooktop with heavy objects.
Place the cookware on top
of the trivet.
Handle cookware carefully
when they are on the burner.
• It is not recommended to use roasting pans, frying pans or grill stones
heated simultaneously on several burners because the resulting heat build
up may damage the appliance.
• Do not touch the top plate and trivet whilst in use for a certain period
after use.
• As soon as a liquid starts boiling,turn down the ame so that it will barely
keep the liquid simmering.
