USING YOUR COOKTOP

Note : Gas controls turn anticlockwise from ‘Off’ and have limited movement.

LIGHTING BURNERS
Electronic ignition
These cooktops are fitted with mains powered ignition.
When the appliance has been connected and the power is on, depressing any knob will release sparks to all burners.
To light a burner, depress the corresponding knob and turn to the ‘High’ position (while depressing the knob).
The knob may be released once the flame is established.

Flame safeguard models
The knob must be turned to the ‘High ’ position, then pushed down as far as possible for approximately 5 seconds. If the flame goes out when the knob is released, simply depress the knob again, this time holding it down with slightly more force for the same length of time.
The height of the flame can be varied by turning the control knob toward the ‘Low’ position.

WARNING

• Keep hands clear of burners when lighting.
• If burner does not light within 5 seconds, turn knob to ‘Off’ position, allow gas to disperse, then try lighting again.
• Burners MUST be operated between ‘HIGH’ and ‘LOW’ settings only.
  In the absence of electrical power, carry out the ignition directly to the burner with a hand-held ignition source.

Choice of burners

For your convenience there is a choice of burners:

• A small burner for special low heat and slow cooking.
• A medium burner for normal cooking and simmering. (one on 4-burner models and two on 5-burner models).
• A large burner for fast heating and large pots and pans.
• A wok burner for very fast heating using a wok or large pot or pan.

To conserve gas, place the pan centrally over the burner and adjust the flame so that it does not extend past the edge of the pan (Figure 3). Do not boil food too rapidly.
A vigorous boil will not cook food any faster, and will waste energy.

Pots and pans
All common pots and pans: aluminium, stainless steel, cast iron, ceramic, etc., may be used on your new gas model cooktop. Ensure that the pots or pans are steady and have flat bases to avoid dangerous spill-over of hot liquids and wasted energy. A wok support has been supplied with this appliance for use when cooking with a round-bottom wok. The support is not necessary when cooing with a flat-bottom wok.

WARNING

Never use asbestos mats, wire mats or grids, aluminium foils it can lead to overheating, cracked enamel. The warranty will be void if these items are used and cause a failure. Woks should only be used on the wok burner and wok support trivet.

CLEANING & CARE

CAUTION
Ensure the appliance is off and cool before cleaning.
Enamel
Persistent stains may require rubbing with a nylon scourer orcreamed powder cleansers. Household enamel cleaners areavailable, follow the manufacturer’s instructions in their use.
CAUTION
Harsh abrasive cleaners, powder cleaners, steel wool or wax polishes should not be used.

Stainless steel
Note: Ensure any oil is cleaned off the hob before first use, otherwise it may cause the hob to turn a yellowish colour.
All grades of stainless steel may stain, discolour or attain an adhering layer of grime in normal operation. To achieve maximum surface appearance, stainless steel must be kept clean by regularly using the following cleaning procedures,
thus ensuring good performance and long service life.
Wash with warm soapy water and rinse with clean water.
Where the stainless steel has become extremely dirty with signs of surface discolouration, (due to periods of neglect or misuse) use a stainless steel cleaner.

GAS CONNECTION

This appliance is supplied for use with Natural Gas.
However, it can be converted for use with LPG.
Refer to LP conversion on pages 12 and 13.
Supply pipe sizing
The total hourly gas consumption for the appliance is shown on the data label. The required supply pressure (i.e. at inlet to appliance regulator) for each gas type is shown on the data label, and given in Table 2.
Use this information in conjunction with the length of run, number of elbows, tees and bends, the available service pressure and the supply requirements of other installed appliances to determine a suitable pipe size. For assistance in this matter refer to the appropriate section of AS/NZS 5601.1 or AS/NZS 5601.2.
An AGA certified class B or D flexible connection may be used to connect the cooktop in accordance with AS/NZS 5601.1, in particular section 5.9 and clause 6.10.1.8, or AS/NZS 5601.2, in particular section 2.11. Where a hose assembly is used and the cooktop is in the installed position, the hose assembly shall be suitable for connection to a fixed consumer piping outlet located at a point 800 – 850mm above the floor and in the region outside the width of the appliance to a distance of 250mm. The point of connection to consumer piping must be accessible with appliance installed.
Elbow positioning
It is possible to reposition the elbow if required by loosening the locking nut and elbow by using two spanners.
Re-tighten the entire assembly after the elbow has been repositioned. When fitting elbow to appliance, ensure that the sealing washer is fitted.

OPERATION ON N.G./S.N.G.

Regulator
An appliance regulator is provided. The regulator must be positioned so that the pressure test nipple is accessible when the appliance is installed. Connect the gas supply to the ½” B.S.P. internal thread inlet of the regulator. Refer to ‘bench cutout’ (Figure 4) for connection point position.
Assembly of Regulator
The assembly of the regulator to the cooktop manifold is achieved via the elbow union and sealing washer supplied, refer to figure 9 (page 11).
The ½” parallel thread connects to the manifold, and the sealing washer is placed between the manifold end and the flat face on the elbow.
The ½” tapered thread connects to the outlet of the regulator, and is sealed on the thread using approved thread sealing tape or approved thread sealing compound.
The inlet of the regulator is a ½” parallel thread and is connected to consumer piping or hose assembly. Regulators are supplied pre-adjusted and configured by the component maker for use with Natural Gas.
The appliance installer is not required to make an adjustment to obtain the correct outlet pressure setting.
An arrow on the base of the regulator indicates the direction of gas flow when the inlet and outlet of the regulator is orientated correctly. When the regulator has been fitted check for leaks from the connections with soapy water.

Checking the gas supply

1. Check the manometer zero point is correct.

2. Connect the manometer to the cooktop pressure point.
   This is located on the regulator.

3. Turn on the gas supply and electricity and try to ignite the gas.

Checking the gas supply

1. Check the manometer zero point is correct.

2. Connect the manometer to the cooktop pressure point.
   This is located on the regulator.

3. Turn on the gas supply and electricity and try to ignite the gas.

If the regulator appears to not be performing satisfactorily, then check the following points.

1. If the outlet pressure is consistently too low then the inlet pressure may be too low and adjustment of an upstream regulator may be needed, or an upstream regulator or valve with insufficient flow capacity may be present in the gas supply line. If this is suspected then it may be necessary to repeat the checks whilst measuring both the inlet and outlet pressure to determine if the inlet pressure is in the range 1.13 – 5kPa.
2. Check that the regulator has been fitted to the gas supply line in the correct orientation, the arrow on the base of the body indicates the direction of gas flow.
   Once these checks have been completed, if the regulator still fails to perform in a satisfactory manner it should be replaced.

CAUTION
This appliance is fitted with Natural Gas burner injectors.
Please follow the procedure below if a conversion to suit LP gas is required.
The conversion kit contains appropriate LPG injectors and 1 LPG sticker.
To convert to LPG

1. Remove the hotplate burners to access the hotplate injectors. Replace the factory fitted NG injectors with the appropriate injectors, as supplied (see Table 2).

2. Unscrew the hex nut from the regulator. The hex nut, brass washer and nylon insert will disengage as an assembly.

3. Unclip the nylon insert from the nut assembly by rotating the insert ¼ turn, and pulling it free.

4. Turn over the insert, and clip back into position.

5. Refit the hex nut assembly to the regulator ensuring that it is fully screwed down. The regulator is now set for connection to LP.

6. Turn on the gas supply and at each new connection check for leaks using soapy water: each hotplate valve should be turned on, one at a time, and the injector hole blanked off for several seconds.

7. The operation of the regulator can be confirmed by connecting a manometer to the pressure test point located on the side of the regulator body adjacent to the outlet. With the appliance operating check the outlet pressure
   • when all burners of the appliance are operating at maximum,
   • when the smallest burner of the appliance is operating at minimum.
   Under these conditions the outlet pressure should not vary from the nominal outlet pressure of 2.60kPa by more than +/– 0.52kPa.

8. If the regulator appears to not be performing satisfactorily then check the following points.
   • If the outlet pressure is consistently too low then the inlet pressure may be too low and adjustment of an upstream regulator may be needed, or an upstream regulator or valve with insufficient flow capacity may be present in the gas supply line. If this is suspected then it may be necessary to repeat the checks whilst measuring both the inlet and outlet pressure to determine if the inlet pressure is in the range 2.75–7.00kPa.
   • Check that the insert has been fitted correctly as per diagram figure 10. Check that the hex nut is fully screwed down.
   • Check that the regulator has been fitted to the gas supply line in the correct orientation, the arrow on the base of the body indicates the direction of gas flow.
   Once these checks have been completed, if the regulator still fails to perform in a satisfactory manner it should be replaced.

9. One by one, turn the knobs to minimum and screw in the bypass screw (accessible when the knob is removed – refer figure 12) until a small stable flame results. Turn the knob to maximum and then back to minimum to ensure that the correct minimum flame is maintained.

10. Attach the LPG sticker to the cooker, near the gas supply inlet. Cover the Natural Gas label that is factory fitted.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (220-240 volts)

The appliance is supplied with a standard 7.5Amp service cord terminated by a 3-pin plug for connection to a standard household socket. The electrical supply is required to power the electronic ignition system.
NOTE: It will be necessary for servicing purposes to disconnect the electrical power supply. The power point should therefore be accessible after the appliance is installed, as specified in the local wiring regulations.
Diagram 1 is a schematic of the wiring in the appliance.
The weight of the unit is printed on the appliance packaging label.

Use of Hose Assemblies
Ensure that the hose assembly is restrained from accidental contact with the flue outlet of an underbench oven or any other hot surface of an adjacent appliance.

TESTING APPLIANCE OPERATION

After installation, test the appliance and ensure that it operates correctly before handing it over to the customer.
The following procedure is recommended:

1. Turn on the gas and electricity supply and attempt ignition on all burners, both separately and in combination. (For correct procedure, refer to page 4).
   Note that additional time needs to be allowed for the initial lighting as air has to be purged from the pipes.

2. Observe the flame appearance on each burner.
   (Figure 11) If it is much larger or much smaller than expected, the injector size and supply pressure require checking. Where a flame is unsatisfactory, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide (Page 6) to correct the fault. If the Troubleshooting Guide does not solve the problem, call the Service Centre.

3. When all the foregoing is satisfactory, check the turndown (minimum or low) setting on each burner, as this may need adjustment. Valves have a by pass controlling screw, which may be accessed by removing the knob. This screw will be located on a particular area of the valve. (Refer figure 12).
   Normally, this will have been correctly set at the factory for use on NG (Natural Gas) and should not require adjustment.
   If the appliance has been converted to LPG, then the bypass screw will have to be screwed in until a small, stable flame results.
   Please ensure the supply pressure has been checked PRIOR to any adjustment.

4. If the appliance cannot be adjusted to perform safely, inform the customer of the problem and affix an appropriate warning notice to the appliance. If the fault appears to be dangerous the appliance should be disconnected. If a minor fault exists, the customer may wish to use the appliance while awaiting service.
   If a fault cannot be fixed, please call the Service Centre.

5. The customer should be advised that, in the event of a fault, the local Service Organisation or the retailer from whom the appliance was purchased should be contacted.

6. When satisfied that the unit is operating correctly, turn off and instruct the customer on correct operation as outlined in this booklet. Ask the customer to operate the controls to ensure that the correct procedure is understood.

WARNING
Servicing must only be carried out by an authorised service person.
Injector sizes required for various gas types are shown in Table 2 (page 11). The appliance inlet pressure for each gas type is also shown.
For model identification after installation, an additional data plate sticker has been provided. This sticker is to be stuck onto adjacent cabinetry.
