Installation Instructions for Built- in

The following instructions are directed at the qu alified installer so that the installation and maintenance procedures may be followed in the most professional and expert manner possible .

Positioning for gas hob

Important : this unit may be installed and used only in permanently ventilated rooms

The following requirements must be observed :

A) the room must be fitted with a ventilation system which vents smoke and gases from combustion to the outside. we suggest to use Brandt family hoods.

B) The room must also allow for the influx of the air needed for proper combustion. The flow of air for combustion purpose must not be less than 2m’ / h per kw of installed capacity . The supply of said air can be effected by means of direct influx from the outside through a duct with a  inner cross section of at least 100cm’which must not be able to accidentally blocked . otherwise , the room can be vented indirectly through adjacent rooms fitted with ventilation ducts to the outside as described above, as long as the adjacent rooms are not shared areas.

C) Intensive and prolonged use of the appliance may necessitate supplemental ventilation , e. g. opening a window or increasing the power of the air intake system (if present) .
D) Liquid ified petroleum gases areheavier than air and, as a result, settle downwards. LPG tanks, whether empty or partially full, must not be installed or stored in rooms or spaces below ground level (cellars, etc. ) .
It is also a good idea to keep only the tank currently being used in the room , making sure that it is not near sources of heat (ovens, fireplace, stove, etc. ) that could raise the internal temperature of the tank above 50°C.

Installation of built-in cook tops

The appliance can be installed next to furniture units which are no taller than the top of the cooker hob. The wall in direct contact with the back panel of the cooker must be made of non- flammable material. During operation the back panel of the cooker could reach a temperature of 50 •c above room temperature. For proper installation of the cooker, the following precautions must be taken:
a) The hob may be located in a kitchen or living room, but not in a bathroom or shower room.
b) The furniture standing next to the unit, that is higher than the working boards, must be placed at least 600mm from the edge of the board .
C) The cabinets should be positioned next to the cooktop at a height of at least 540mm (Fig. C) .

d) Should the hob be installed directly under a cupboard the latter should be at least 700mm from the worktop, as shown in Fig. C.
E) The dimensions of the opening for the furniture must be those indicated in the figures shown in the installation diagrams below. Fixing hooks are provided which allow to place the plate on work tops that measure from 20mm to 40mm in thickness (see Fig. D) .
To obtain a good fixing of the hob plate it is advisable to use all the hooks supplied .

The hob can only be installed above abuilt- in oven provided with cooling ventilation
f) In the event the cooktop is not installed above built-in oven, a wood panel must be inserted as insulation.
g) This panel must be placed at least 20mm from the bottom of cooktop itself.

Important: When installing the hob above a built- in oven, the oven should be placed on two wooded strips; in the case of a joining cabinet surface, remember to leave a space of at least 45 x 560mm at the back.

To turn off a burner ,turn the knob clockwise until it stops (it should be on the “OFF”setting).
Caution: if the flame accidently goes out, turn off the gas with the control knob and wait at least lminute before you try to light it again .

For best performance, follow these general guidelines:

• Use the appropriate cookware for each burner (see table)in order to prevent the flame from reaching the sides of the pot or pan;
• Always use cookware with a flat bottom and keep the lid on; When the contents come to a boil, turn the knob to “Min”.

To identify the type of burner, refer to the designs in the section entitled” product Specifications”.

Precautions for use

The following advice is intended to help you save energy ana prevent cookware damage:

Use paos wh;rn seethe rights~ foe each burner.
Do not use small receptacles on large
CF6’l burners. The flame should not touch the sides of receptacles.

For model:
TG1482B, please use “milk support” for cookware of diameter 12cm.
When using cookware of diameter 12cm, the flame should not touch the sides of the 12cm cookware.

Do not use damaged cookware, which does not sit evenly on the hob. Pans may be over turned .
Only use a pan with thick, flat base.

Do not cook without lids only partially covering receptacles. You are wasting energy.

Always place the cookware right over the burner, not to one side.
Otherwise it could be overturned.
Do not place large pans on the burners near the controls.
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 hob carefully.

Make sure that the pan supports and burner cover a re correctly positioned before using the appliance.

• Do not use the same cookware that you use for gas burners because the concentrated heat they produce can deform the bottom of the pot. Therefore, you will not achieve best results when using these pots on the electric hot plates.
