COOKTOP COMPONENTS
Your Esatto cooktop is supplied with:
► LPG conversion jets (optional use)
► Regulator
► Sealing strip

CONTROLS
The following symbols will appear on the control panel, next to each control knob:
Large flame: maximum setting
Small flame: minimum setting
Gas off
► The minimum setting is at the end of the anti-clockwise rotation of the control knob.
► All operation positions must be selected between the maximum and minimum position.
► Never select a knob position between the maximum and off position.
Burner indicator
► The symbol above indicates which gas burner the knob operates.
AUTOMATIC IGNITION
WITH FLAME FAILURE SAFETY DEVICE
Your Esatto cooktop is fitted with a flame failure safety device on each burner, which is designed to stop the flow of gas to the burner head in the event of the flame going out.
To ignite a burner:
► Press in the control knob of the burner that you wish to light and turn it anti-clockwise to the maximum position.
► If you keep the control knob depressed, the automatic ignition for the burner will operate.
► You should hold down the control knob for 10 seconds after the flame on the burner has lit.
► After this 10-second interval, turn the control knob to your required setting between the maximum and minimum setting symbols.
► To switch the burner off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to the gas off position.
► In case of power failure, the burners can be lit by carefully using a match.

SUITABLE PANS
► Refer to the chart below and ensure that the pan diameter falls within the minimum and maximum diameters given for the burner to you using. A pan base which is too small will be unstable on the pan support.
If the pan diameter is too large, flames can spread out to the sides and damage or burn the worktop, wall claddings or surrounding units and also parts of the cooktop. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for this type of damage.

Burner Min. pan base diameter in cm
Small burner 10
Medium burner 12
Large  burner 14
Wok  burner 14
Max. diameter at top of pan in cm
Small burner 22
Medium burner 22
Large  burner 24
Wok  burner 24

▷ Wide, shallow pans are preferable to tall, narrow ones. They will heat up faster.
▷ Select pans which are suitable for the burner they are to be used on. In general: use larger diameter pans on the large burners, and smaller diameter pans on the small burners.
▷ Pans with thick bases are preferable as these distribute heat more evenly. With thin bases, there is a danger of food overheating in places. Stir the food frequently.
▷ Any heat-resistant pans can be used on a gas burner.
▷ Always place the pan on the pan support supplied with the cooktop. Do not place a pan directly on top of the burner.
▷ Remember when purchasing new pans that manufacturers usually refer to the diameter at the top of the pan in their documentation.
▷ Use a lid whenever possible to minimise heat loss.
▷ When using a wok make sure that the base does not touch the burner. A distance of 1 cm should be maintained between the burner and the base of the wok pan above it.

Warning!
Place pots and pans flat on the cooktop trivets to ensure they do not tip over. Slight tilting cannot always be avoided.

Installation Instructions

► If, after installation and checking the appliance operation, the hotplate is not working correctly, contact the Residentia Support team on 1300 11 4357 forassistance.
► Fit the duplicate data plate (supplied in separate bag) on a surface adjacent to the hotplate, for example, theinside of the cupboard door so it is clearly visible for any service technician.

CHECKING THE GAS SUPPLY

  1. Check the manometer zero point is correct.

  2. Connect the manometer to the cooktop pressure point (located on the regulator).

  3. Turn on the gas supply and electricity and try to ignite the gas burner.
    Note: It will take additional time to light the gas for the first time as air needs to be purged from the pipes.

  4. 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 1.00kPa by more than .20kPa.

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. Please contact the Residentia Support Team on 1300 11 4357.

GAS ADJUSTMENT (CONVERSION TO LPG)
IMPORTANT!
Th e conversion work must be carried out by a registered gas fi tter and in accordance with the current standards.
