Description of the Hob
INSTALLATION
Any gas installation must be carried out by
qualified personnel, and in accordance with
existing rules and regulations.
The relevant instructions are to be found in the
second section of this manual.
Please, ensure that, once the appliance is
installed, it is easily accessible for the
engineer in the event of a breakdown.
WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED
Once the hob has been installed, it is
important to remove any protective
materials, which were put on in the factory.

6
Operation
To light a burner, turn the relevant control knob
anticlockwise to maximum position and push it down
to ignite. Keep the control knob pressed down for
about 5 seconds, to allow the safety device to be
switched off. Then adjust the flame as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to
zero, and try again.
When switching on the mains, after
installation or a power cut, it is quite normal
for the spark generator to be activated
automatically.
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should
only use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the
size of the burner used (see table).
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than
the recommended size, the flame will spread
beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the
handle to overheat.
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down
the flame so that it will barely keep the
liquid simmering.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat,
as the overheated splashes could easily
ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn,
please contact your local Service Centre.

This hob is provided with a safety device,
which will stop the gas flow if the flame
accidentally goes off during cooking.

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be
carried out, you must DISCONNECT the
hob from the electricity supply.
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as
spillage can be removed more easily than if it is left
to cool.
The HobTop
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth
well wrung out in warm water to which a little
washing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of
the following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is
recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob
Brite or Bar Keepers Friend is used.
Pan Supports
To keep the pan supports in the correct position, they
are hooked into hinges at the back of the hob.
The pan supports can be lifted for easier cleaning, as
shown in fig. 1.
To remove the pan supports completely, proceed as
shown in fig. 2.
The pan supports and are dishwasher proof. If
washing them by hand, take care when drying them
as the enamelling process occasionally leaves rough
edges. If necessay, remove stubborn stains using a
paste cleaner.
The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed for
cleaning.
Wash the burners taps and crowns using hot soapy
water, and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A
well moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can
be used with caution, if the marks are particularly
difficult to remove.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.

Cut Out Size
The dimensions of the cut-out are given in the
diagram.
A) End of shaft with nut
B) Washer
C) Adjustable joint
IMPORTANT
This appliance must be installed by qualified
personnel.
The manufacturer will not accept liability,
should the above instructions or any of the
other safety instructions incorporated in
this book be ignored.
Gas Connection
On the end of the shaft (A) , which includes the GJ 1/
2" threaded elbow, an adjustable joint is fixed so that
the washer (B) is fitted between the components as
shown in the diagram.
A drop of paint at both edges of the "L" joint (C) will
evidence that the good seal of the connection has
been tested in the factory.
Before connecting the gas supply pipe to the joint
(C), the installer will ensure that the paint drop is
unbroken and the "L" connector has not been moved
by the vibrations during handling and transportation.
When the final connection has been made, it is
essential that a thorough leak test is carried out on the
hob and installation.
Ensure that the main connection pipe does not exert
any strain on the hob.

Building In
Building over a cupboard or drawer
If the hob is to be installed above a cupboard or
drawer it will be necessary to fit a heat resistant board
below the base of the hob on the underside of the
work surface.
Building over a kitchen unit with door
Proper arrangements must be taken in designing the
furniture unit, in order to avoid any contact with the
bottom of the hob which can be heated when it is
operated. The recommended solution is shown in
diagram 1.
The panel fitted under the hob ("a") should be easily
removable to allow easy access if technical assistance
is needed. The space behind the kitchen unit ("b") can
be used for connections.
a) Removable panel
b) Room for connections

FO 0198
Building over a kitchen unit with oven
If the hob is built into a kitchen unit with an oven
underneath, the recess must have the dimensions
shown in diagrams 2 and 3, and should also incorpo-
rate suitable oven crosspiece supports to ansure an
efficient cooling air circulation.
Diagrams 4 and 5 give two building-in examples.
The electric connection of the hob and the
oven should be carried out separately, for
electrical safety reasons to permit easy
extraction of the oven from the front part of
the kitchen unit.
