Minimum capacity Economy or aperture flame For double-flame burners, the inner and outer flames can be controlled separately. The available power levels are as follows: Inner and outer flame on full power. Outer flame on minimum, inner flame on full power. Inner flame on full power. Inner flame on minimum power. Warnings It is normal to hear a slight whistling noise while the burner is operating. When it is first used, it is normal for the burner to give off odours; this does not pose any risk and does not indicate a malfunction; they will disappear in time. A few seconds after switching off the burner, it will make a sound (thud). This is not a fault -this means that the safety device is no longer operating. Keep the burner as clean as possible. If the ignition sparkers are dirty they will not light properly. Clean them periodically using a small non-wire brush. Bear in mind that the ignition sparkers must not suffer any serious impacts. An orange-coloured flame is normal. This is caused by the presence of dust in the atmosphere, spilt liquids, etc. The kitchen will become hot and humid when this gas appliance is used. You must therefore ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: either keep the natural ventilation apertures open, or install a ventilation system (extractor hood). If using the appliance intensively for prolonged periods, you may require additional ventilation (e.g. by opening a window) or more effective ventilation (e.g. by increasing the cooktop's ventilation, if possible). If the burner flames are accidentally blown out, switch off the burner operating control knob and do not try to relight it for at least one minute. Use “Large” setting to bring the pan to the boil, then adjust the flame between “Large flame” and “Economy flame” to maintain the required pan temperature. Important: The use of a cooktop leads to the production of heat and moisture in the kitchen. For this reason make sure that the room is properly ventilated. Keep natural ventilation openings, such as windows, open or provide a mechanical ventilation device (e.g. a range hood or overhead exhaust fan). An orangy flame is normal and simply indicates the presence of salt in the atmosphere (from cooking). If the flame has yellow patches, this is not a fault (of any kind). Suitable pans The chart below gives the correct pan usage for each burner Burner Minimum pan Maximum pan diameter diameter Semi-rapid burner 14 cm 20 cm Wok burner 22 cm Depending on the model, the hob may include the Accessories following accessories. These are also available from the Technical Assistance Service. Additional wok pan support Wok pan Additional wok pan support: to be used exclusively on double and triple-flame burners with concave-based pans. Using these pans may cause some temporary deformation of the grease splash tray. This is normal and does not affect the operation of the appliance. The manufacturer accepts no liability if these accessories are not used or are used incorrectly. Cooking recommendation Very high, high Medium Low Wok burner Boiling, grilling, browning and Asian food (wok). Reheating and keeping things hot: cooked and pre-cooked dishes. Semi-rapid burner Steaming potatoes, fresh vegetables, stews, pasta. Reheating, keeping things hot and making tasty casseroles. Do not place anything, eg. flame tamer, 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. The following advice is intended to help you save energy Precautions for use and prevent pan damage: Use pans which are the right size for each burner. Do not use small pans on large burners. The flame should not touch the sides of the pan. Do not use damaged pans, which do not sit evenly on the cooktop. Pans may tip over. Only use pans with a thick, flat base. Do not cook without using a lid and make sure the lid is properly fitted to avoid wasting energy. Always place the pan right over the burner, not to one side. Otherwise it could tip over. Do not place large pans on the burners near the control knobs. These may be damaged by the very high temperatures. Place the pans on the pan supports, never directly on the burner. Pans should be placed on the cooktop carefully. Do not strike the cooktop and do not place excessive weight on it. Make sure that the pan supports and burner covers are correctly positioned before using the appliance. Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning Unsuitable products Maintenance Once the appliance is cool, use a sponge to clean it with soap and water. After each use, clean the surface of the respective burner parts once they have cooled down. If any residue is left (baked-on food, drops of grease etc.), however little, it will become stuck to the surface and more difficult to remove la...
