CLEANING

CAST IRON OR ENAMELLED PARTS

In order to clean the hotplate, burner caps and pan supports on your hob, please use a soft cloth and hot, soapy water. Stubborn stains can be removed with a non-abrasive cleaning agent, so as not to damage the enamel surface.

NOTE: The enamelled pan supports can also be cleaned safely in the dishwasher.

STAINLESS STEEL

To clean the hotplate surface, clean with a cloth soaked in hot, soapy water and then dry with a soft cloth to avoid scratching.

PLASTIC

To clean the control knobs, wipe clean with a damp, soapy cloth.

GLASS

A non-abrasive cleaner should be used on glass surfaces. Any abrasive cleaner (including Coif) will scratch the surface and could erase the control panel markings. Glass can be effectively cleaned by simply using a dilute solution of water and mild detergent and drying to a shine with a clean cloth.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT INFORMATION !!
Prior to use or after any maintenance/cleaning it is important that the cast iron pan stands are positioned correctly and safely. In particular with gas on glass hobs the pan stands MUST BE LOCATED on the metal rail at the rear of the hob. Failure to do this may result in damage not covered by the manufacturers guarantee.

The safety and automatic adjustment devices of the appliance may only be modified by an authorised service agent.
The installation of this gas hob must comply with UK standards.
This appliance must be fitted in compliance with the installation rules given above. Also, particular attention must be given to the following requirements for ventilation.

WARNING!

• a) Prior to installation, ensure that the local distribution conditions (nature of the gas and gas pressure) and the adjustment of the appliance are compatible;
• b) The adjustment conditions for this appliance are tatted on the label(or data plate);
• c) This appliance is not connected to a combustion products evacuation device, It shall be installed and connected in accordance with current installation regulations. Particular attention shall be given to the relevant requirements regarding ventilation.

INSTALLATION LOCATION

The appliance may be located in a kitchen, kitchen/diner or utility room, however, it cannot be in a room containing a bath or shower. The hob must not be installed in a bed-sitting room of less than 20m3. LPG models must never be installed in a room or internal space below ground level, i.e. in a basement.

PROVISION FOR VENTILATION
The room containing the appliance should have an air supply in accordance with BS5440: Part 2. The room must have an opening window or equivalent, some rooms may also require a permanent vent. If the room has a volume between 5-10m3 , it will require an air vent of 50cm2 effective area, unless it has a door which opens directly to the outside. If the room has a volume of less than 5m3 , it will require an air vent of 100cm2 effective area (Fig. 1). If there are other fuel burning appliances in the same room, BS5440: Part 2 should be consulted to determine air vent requirements.

NOTE: The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Always ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated; keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (fig 2).
When using more than one hotplate at once, open a window if a mechanical extractor is not present or working (Fig. 3).
Air inlet minimum section: 100cm2

UNPACKING THE APPLIANCE

Remove all packaging and make sure the appliance is in perfect condition. If you have any doubts, do not use the appliance and call your supplier.  Some parts on the appliance are protected by a plastic film. This protective film must be removed before the appliance is used. The packaging materials should be carefully discarded and not left within easy reach of children as they are a potential hazard.

INSTALLING AND FIXING THE HOB (QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY)

The appliance can be fitted to any worktop with a thickness of 40mm or 50mm. No overhanging surface or cooker hood should be closer to the hob than 750mm. Fix the appliance in position (Fig. 4). The sides of the adjacent cabinets above may be lower than 750mm down to 334mm, provided they are heat and steam resistant. These hobs are supplied with a special seal which prevents liquids from seeping underneath the appliance. Follow these instructions in order to correctly fit this seal:

Detach the seals from their backing ensuring that the transparent protection still adheres to the seal. Turn the hob over and correctly position seal S (Fig. 5) under the edge of the hob so that the outer part of the seal perfectly matches the outer edge of the hob. The ends of the strips must fit together without overlapping. Fix the seal to the hob evenly and securely, pressing it firmly in place.

INSTALLATION OPTIONS

In the case of built-in hotplates, where the manufacturer specifies that a horizontal separation shall be included below the base of the hotplate, the critical dimensions of this separation. In addition, the minimum distance declared shall not exceed 150mm; Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening of a window or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where present.
CAUTION: Accessible parts may be not when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away. CAUTION: This appliance is for cooking purposes only. It must not be used for other purposes, for example room heating.
When fitting a gas hob above a drawer or a standard housing unit, suitable precautions must be taken to prevent contact with the hotplate surface as it can become very hot during operation.
The recommended method is to fix a wooden panel within the cabinet at a distance of 15mm below the underside of the hob (Fig. 6).
This panel must have adequate ventilation to the rear.

Note: The panel underneath the hob must be easily removable to allow for any servicing requirements.

INSERTING AND FIXING THE HOB

Before inserting the hob into the work surface, please follow the below instructions:

1. Remove the pan stands and burner caps before turning the hob upside down, taking care not to damage the ignition plugs and thermocouples.

2. Place the seal “S” around the bottom edge of the hob as shown in the illustration below.

3. Place the hob in the installation opening and push it down so that the hob is resting firmly on the worktop.

4. Secure the hob in position using the fixing brackets supplied. Screw one end of the bracket into the pre-drilled holes in the underside of the hob. The other end of the bracket should be located underneath the worktop to secure the hob in position.

GAS CONNECTION (QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY)

The appliance has an G 1/2″ threaded pipe connector to connect it to the gas system. Please ensure that the connection is made using a rigid pipe. When making the gas connection, it is important to place the gasket (A) in between the inlet pipe (C) and the elbow (B) to ensure a tight gas seal (Fig. 8).

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The appliance must be connected to the mains supply by a qualified gas engineer using fixed wiring via a double pole switched fused spur outlet protected by a 3A fuse and with a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles. We recommend that the appliance is connected by a qualified electrician who is a member of the N.I.C.E.I.C. and will comply with I.E.T. and local regulations. The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Green & Yellow = Earth, Blue = Neutral, Brown = Live.
