SAFE USE
Always obey the standards and provisions of this Manual. Never let anyone who
is not acquainted with the content of the Manual use the ceramic cooktop. This
way, you are ensuring your safety and preventing the cooktop from being
damaged.
Never leave an operating cooktop unattended. Never let children play with the
ceramic cooktop. Direct contact with an active ceramic cooktop produces the
risk of
getting burned! The ceramic cooktop is not intended for use by individuals
(including children) with impaired physical, sensory, or mental
capacity or individuals not acquainted with or instructed in scope of the
appliance unless they are supervised by an individual responsible for their
safety and in accordance with the Operation Manual of the ceramic cooktop.
This appliance can be used by children aged 8 and up, individuals with
impaired physical, sensory, or mental capacity, and individuals not acquainted
with or not instructed in scope of the appliance as long as they are
appropriately supervised or instructed in scope of using the appliance in a
safe manner and understand the potential hazards. The appliance is not a toy
for children. Children should not clean or perform maintenance of the
appliance without supervision. Never turn on a heating zone of the ceramic
cooktop when there is no cookware with food standing on top of it. Never
cover/obstruct the hot exhaust vent with pots, foil, rags, or other objects.
The cooking process will produce hot steam, which will be released from the
exhaust vent. Do not touch it (at the risk of being burned). If any children
and/or household pets (e.g. cats) are present inside the room where the
ceramic cooktop is installed, it is recommended to activate the Control Panel
Lock (child safety) in order to avoid having appliance being turned on by
accident by a child and/or pet. Fire hazard! Never put flammable objects on
the cooktop. Fire hazard! Never keep flammable objects or sprays inside the
drawers underneath the cooktop. Do not keep any objects on the cooktop. Never
use the cooktop as a chopping block or working table unless it is protected
with a cover designed and authorised by its manufacturer. Never hang any
objects not resistant to high temperatures above the ceramic cooktop; this
includes rags, mitts, foil, synthetic objects, sponges, etc. Never use the
cooktop to cook food on aluminium foil, in aluminium cookware, or in synthetic
cookware. Never place hot pots or pans on surfaces not resistant to high
temperatures. Such conduct produces a risk of a fire or damage to said
objects. If the cooktop needs to be equipped with a cover to hide or protect
its surface, please use only those covers designed and authorised by its
manufacturer. Use of inappropriate covers is prohibited and may lead to
accidents. INSTALLATION The cooktop can be used only after it is installed in
accordance with the Installation Manual . If the cooktop is installed in
violation of the Installation Manual, it is at risk of malfunctioning, which
includes inadequate gas combustion leading to release of combustion products
presenting a danger to human life and health (including carbon monoxide), low
cooking efficiency, and damage. After installation of the ceramic cooktop, its
power cable plug or power switch should be easy to access. The furniture
encasing the cooktop must be resistant to temperatures of minimum 100oC. This
applies to veneer, edges, synthetic surfaces, adhesives, and varnish.
Installing the cooktop in proximity of refrigeration appliances is not
recommended. Please make sure that the power cables of the cooktop or other
devices never come into contact with the hot parts of the ceramic cooktop.
Please make sure to keep small kitchen appliances and their power cables away
from the cooktop so they never touch a hot zone directly as they are not
resistant to high temperatures. Cooktops installed on boats should be equipped
with pot holders to prevent pots from sliding on the surface of the cooktop
while cooking when the boat is in motion. Cooktops installed on boats are
factory-fitted with pot holders. Pot holders are available from the cooktop
manufacturer as a separate accessory. VENTILATION A working cooktop consumes
oxygen and emits combustion products such as heat, humidity, carbon dioxide,
and carbon monoxide inside the room where it is installed. Please make sure
that the room where the cooktop is used is well ventilated and that the
ventilation pathways are open during cooking. Please keep the natural
ventilation ports open as appropriate and install forms of mechanical
ventilation, e.g. a hood with mechanical exhaust. Do not close the room’s
ventilation pathways when using the cooktop.
8
A visible asphyxiation risk warning sign with minimum 4 mm letter height
should be installed in a visible location in proximity/next to the cooktop.
DANGER: AVOID ASPHYXIATION. COOKTOP PRODUCES CARBON MONOXIDE. MAINTAIN OPEN
VENTILATION WHEN COOKTOP IS IN USE. DO NOT USE FOR SPACE HEATING.
When the cooktop is turned on for the first time, an unpleasant “new
appliance” smell may arise. The smell will go away after a several hours of
use. It is recommended to air out the kitchen space extensively during the
initial hours of use.
Unpleasant smell being emitted from the cooktop when in use may be the odour
added to gas. Prolonged and intensive use of the appliance may require you to
e.g. open the window or ensure more efficient
ventilation, e.g. increase mechanical ventilation efficiency. If are unable to
turn on the burner/heating zone for over 60 seconds, please disconnect the gas
supply and air out the
room. GAS SYSTEM IF YOU SHOULD SUSPECT A GAS LEAK, DO NOT: light matches,
lighters, or cigarettes, turn electrical appliances (e.g. a
bell or light) on or off, or use other electrical and mechanical appliances
producing an electrical or electrostatic discharge spark. In such instances,
you must immediately close the valve of the system supplying gas to the
appliance, air out the room, and call for assistance of an individual
authorised to remove the defect. Never connect any antenna cables, e.g.
radios, to the gas supply system. In the event of ignition of the gas leaking
from the system supplying gas to the appliance, you must immediately close the
valve in your gas supply system. In the event of ignition of gas leaking from
a gas tank valve, cover the tank with a wet blanket in order to cool it off
and then close the valve of the tank. When cooled down, take the tank outside.
Never use a damaged tank. In the event of prolonged downtime in use of a
ceramic cooktop connected to a gas tank, please close the valve of the tank.
Do not use solutions containing ammonia to check for gas leaks. COOKTOP HOT
SURFACE INDICATOR, HOT HEATING ZONES Danger of being burned! Never touch the
heating zones or metal elements of the cooktop. Keep small children away from
the cooktop surface. The cooktop is equipped with status indicators. The
indicators can be found on the control panel. For more information about
indicator messages, please read the chapter entitled Using the Cooktop. The
heating zone (residual heat) indicator embedded in the control system of the
ceramic cooktop indicates when the heating zones are turned on or still hot.
The heating zone (residual heat) indicator will remain on while the heating
zones are hot. In the event of a power outage during use of the cooktop, all
heating zone settings and heating zone indicators are reset. When the power
supply returns, it is recommended to take particular care as the used heating
zones are hot and touching them puts you at risk of being burned!
The ceramic surface of the cooktop may be hot even when no information is
displayed on the control panel!
Never leave the ceramic cooktop unattended during frying. Overheating or
boiling oil and fats may be spontaneously ignited.
The heating zone and the cookware bottom must both be dry. If the space
between the heating zone and the pot bottom is wet, steam pressure may be
produced. This pressure may make the pot “jump” unexpectedly and expose the
user to the danger of e.g. being burned.
Do not place synthetic or aluminium cookware or utensils, e.g. spoons, forks,
aluminium foil, etc. on a hot cooktop. Do not use the surface of the ceramic
cooktop for storage purposes. Do not place empty cookware on active heating
zones as this may lead to damage. The heating zone power is regulated by being
cyclically turned on and off. Turning on the burner (igniting the gas) is
initiated by the ignition spark (electric spark generator) and is accompanied
by the characteristic sound of a jumping electric spark. CLEANING, STAINS
Always obey the guidelines for cleaning and maintenance of the ceramic cooktop
in accordance with the chapter entitled Cleaning and Maintenance. The
manufacturer is not held liable in any way for damage to the cooktop resulting
from improper use, maintenance, or cleaning.
9
Do not clean the ceramic cooktop with abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents,
which can cause permanent scratches and damage to the appliance and damage the
decorative imprint on the ceramic surface.
Never place cookware with wet bottoms on hot heating zones as this may produce
irreversible damage to the cooktop (permanent stains).
Never let the cooktop be contaminated or covered with spillage. This applies
to sugar In particular, which enters a reaction with the ceramic cooktop and
may produce irreversible damage. All residue must be promptly removed.
Never let sugar, citric acid, salt, etc. in solid or liquid state or synthetic
materials come into contact with hot heating zones.
If any sugar or synthetic material should accidentally come into contact with
a hot cooktop, do not turn off the cooktop. Scrape the sugar or synthetic
material off with a sharp scrubber dedicated to ceramic surfaces. Protect your
hands from heat and cuts please read the chapter entitled Cleaning the
Ceramic Cooktop Surface.
CERAMIC GLASS DAMAGE, COOKWARE The heating surface of the ceramic cooktop is
resistant to thermal shock and is not sensitive to hot or cold. Do not strike
the surface of the ceramic cooktop or drop anything on it. When something,
e.g. a spice bottle, hits the
surface, it may cause the ceramic cooktop to crack or chip. Never use cookware
with sharp edges, which could potentially damage the ceramic cooktop. Never
place anything with total weight exceeding 25 kg on the ceramic cooktop. Use
only cookware with flat and dry bottoms and no sharp or jagged edges or risk
permanent scratches in the cooktop. If the cooktop surface should crack, you
must immediately disconnect it from the source of electrical power supply and
close the gas valve in the system supplying gas to the appliance. It is
forbidden to use a cooktop with a cracked working surface. TECHNICAL DEFECTS
Never use a cooktop, which is not in technical operating order. All damages to
the cooktop can be removed by a service point authorised by the manufacturer
only. Repairs of the cooktop performed by unauthorised individuals present a
serious hazard to the user of the appliance! In all situations resulting from
technical malfunctions, you must immediately turn off the electrical power
supply and the valve of your gas supply system and report the malfunction to
the appropriate service point. Unauthorised modifications to the ceramic
cooktop are strictly prohibited. Unauthorised conversion of the ceramic
cooktop to a different type of gas or modification of the internal gas system
of the cooktop is strictly prohibited. Such conversions or modifications can
be performed only by service points authorised by the manufacturer. If your
cooktop is malfunctioning, please read the chapter entitled Troubleshooting.

ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION
SAVING ENERGY
If you consume energy responsibly, you not only help out your household
budget, but you are also consciously benefiting the natural environment. Let’s
all do our part and conserve energy! We can do so by: Using appropriate
cookware. Cookware with flat and heavy bottoms will save up to 1/3 of energy.
Remember to close the
lid. If you don’t use one, your energy consumption will multiply! Make sure
that the heating zones and cookware bottoms are clean. Residue disrupts heat
transfer burnt on contamination
can be removed only with cleaning agents, which have a major impact on the
natural environment. Try to refrain from “peeking in pans” when there is no
need to do so. Do not install the cooktop in direct proximity of
refrigerators/freezers. If you do so, the energy consumption of your
refrigerating appliances will needlessly grow. Use small cookware for small
amounts of food. A big pot with little content consumes plenty of energy.
Vegetables are cooked best briefly and in little water. This way, you save
both energy and water and your vegetables retain
their vitamins and minerals. Lower the heat setting of the appliance at the
right times. Take maximum advantage of the residual heat produced by the
cooktop. In the event of lengthy cooking, you can turn off
the heating zone 5-10 minutes before the end of the cooking process.
UNPACKING
The appliance is secured from damage for the time of transport. After
unpacking the appliance, please remove the packaging elements in a way, which
will not produce a hazard to the environmental. All materials used for
packaging purposes are friendly to the environment and 100% recyclable.
Keep children away from the packaging materials (polyethylene bags, Styrofoam
fragments, etc.) during the unpacking process.
REMOVING USED APPLIANCES
This device is marked with the crossed-out waste bin symbol in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU and the law on waste electric and electronic
equipment.
This symbol means that the appliance cannot be discarded together with other
household waste after the end of its lifespan. The user must deliver it to an
electric and electronic equipment waste collector, including to local
collection points, stores, and regional units, which compose an appropriate
system collecting such equipment. Through proper handling of used electric and
electronic equipment, you are helping eliminate the consequences of the
presence of dangerous substances harmful to human life and health as well as
improper storage and processing of such equipment.
DynaCook OPERATION MANUAL
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR DynaCook
Purpose
The DynaCook ceramic gas cooktop is the newest generation of gas-based heating
appliances. It offers the “gas under glass” technology and is adapted for
installation in a kitchen counter. The cooktop is designed for use in
households, on boats, in campers, and in camping trailers only for purposes of

and applied in the DynaCook ensure convenient use and low exploitations costs
with fulfilment of top safety standards.
Design
The DynaCook ceramic gas cooktop is equipped with innovative and patented gas
burners equipped individually with a flame ignition and gas combustion control
system. In order to ensure full cooking convenience and safety, the gas
burners are controlled from the electronic touch control system integrated in
the cooktop. The burners are located underneath a ceramic surface with graphic
designations of the heating zones directly above the burners. The cooktop is
operated from touch control panel in a safe area designated on the ceramic
surface. Changes to the burner power settings are shown on the displays. The
electrical power system of the DynaCook ceramic cooktop is safe (12 V DC).
Inadequate voltage is strictly prohibited as it may cause damage to the
cooktop or make it malfunction.

Using the Cooktop
Before first use
First of all, please carefully clean the ceramic cooktop. Treat the ceramic
surface as you would treat a glass surface. Perform all maintenance tasks with
preservation of safety precautions and the standards specified in this manual.
When you activate the cooktop for the first time after a change of gas tanks,
a gas outage in the supply system, or
following prolonged downtime, it may take longer to turn on due to the
presence of air in the gas system. In such instances, the activated heating
zone may produce a momentary louder sound (“snort”), which is normal and
completely safe.
Never turn on a heating zone when there is no cookware with food standing on
top of it.
Turning on and setting heating zones
Guidelines:
After being turned on with ON/OFF switch, the heating zone control sensors of
the cooktop are active (in standby mode); if no control sensor is touched
within 10 seconds, the cooktop will turn itself off automatically,
The pulsating operation of heating zones means in practice that when the
heating zone is not combusting gas (several seconds in a single cycle), it
releases heat to the used cookware this way, it saves gas consumption.
13
If a burner (heating zone) fails to ignite, the setting display of the appropriate heating zone (burner) will display the message “G” (see: Gas leak protection). In such instances, please wait at least 60 seconds before attempting to turn on the heating zone (burner) again.

Child protection/Control panel lock
In order to prevent accidental activation of the ceramic cooktop (e.g. by a
child or household pet, e.g. cat), please use the control panel lock function.
Turning on the lock: touch the lock sensor for at least 5 s. The control panel
lock will be activated when you see the lock symbol “L” appear and hear the
sound signal.
Turning off the lock: touch the lock sensor for at least 5 s. The control
panel lock will be deactivated when you see the lock symbol disappear and hear
the sound signal.
When the control panel is locked, the heating zones cannot be turned on. When
the lock is activated, you will see the lock symbol “L” appear and hear a
sound signal.
Gas leak protection
The DynaCook ceramic cooktop is equipped with numerous safeguards to guarantee
its safe use. One of them is the gas leak safeguard. This solution has been
subject to numerous safety tests based on continuous control of the gas
combustion process. In the event of any problems with gas combustion, e.g. no
ignition, the gas leak safeguard automatically cuts off gas supply to the
burner. The letter “G” appears on the display of the heating zone in question
and a short intermittent sound signal is heard. This causes the cooktop to
lock automatically. The lock can be deactivated as discussed in the chapter
entitled Troubleshooting. What to do when…
Guideline: The “G” code may appear when no gas is being supplied from e.g. the
gas tank or gas network.
Residual heat indicator
The ceramic cooktop is equipped with a two-level residual heat indicator for
every heating zone.
If you see “H” on the display, it means that “the heating zone is hot”. You
can use this zone e.g. to keep your food warm.
If you see “h” on the display, it means that “the heating zone is warm”. The
“h” disappears when the heating zone cools down appropriately.
In the areas of the heating zones, hot steam discharge zones, and hot steam
vents, the cooktop surface is very hot both during the cooking process and for
a certain time afterwards even when the heating zones are off. Due to the
above, when you see “H” or “h” on the heating zone display, please take
special caution, do not touch the heating zones, hot steam discharge zones,
and hot steam vents at the risk of being burned, and do not place any objects
not resistant to high temperatures, including synthetic objects, on top of
them.
When the power supply is cut off, the residual heat indicator is turned off.
In the event of a power outage, please take special caution to avoid being
burned.
When the heating zones are on, the hot steam discharge zones, and the hot
steam vents are very hot. Do not touch them at the risk of being burned! Never
place any objects, which are not resistant to high temperatures, on top of
them, including synthetic objects. When cooking, make sure that nothing boils
over and limit grease “spraying” onto the hot steam discharge zones, and the
hot steam vents, as residue food and grease may be burnt on. Burnt on remains
are best removed with a scraper dedicated to ceramic surfaces -> please see
the chapter entitled Cleaning and Maintenance.
18
Automatic operating time restriction
In order to ensure its safety, the cooktop is equipped with a shut-down timer
for every heating zone. The maximum operating time is determined by the
setting of the given heating zone.
If the power setting remains unchanged for some time (see table), the heating
zone in question will turn off automatically. After the heating zone turns off
automatically, you can reassume cooking at any time and use the individual
heating zones in accordance with the instruction manual.

Cookware
No special cookware is required (as opposed to induction cooktops). Use only dedicated cookware and bakeware on the ceramic cooktop. Always obey the instructions of their manufacturers. Do not use cookware extending beyond the edges of the cooktop.
Never use cookware with “raw” aluminium or copper bottoms. Cookware with
aluminium or copper bottoms may produce permanent metallic discolorations on
the ceramic surface, which are very hard to remove. Please take particular
care when using enamel cookware. Spillage from such cookware may cause
irreversible damage to the ceramic cooktop.
In order to reduce the cooking time to maximum, please ensure the following: –
the cookware bottom must be flat and stable to ensure that the entire bottom
surface adheres to the heating zone of the
ceramic cooktop (bottoms with sharp or jagged edges and charred food remains
may scratch the ceramic cooktop and produce an abrasive effect),
– the cookware should have a tightly fitting lid, – the diameter of the
cookware’s bottom should correspond to that presented in the table in the
chapter entitled FHZ System. Dirty heating zone and cookware surfaces will
prevent you from taking full and economic advantage of the heat.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Regular cleaning is easy and requires little time. The best way to avoid
stains on the ceramic cooktop is to regularly clean it after every cooking.
This way, the cooking residue will not stick as hard.
Do not clean the cooktop until it is cold.
If the cooktop surface is cracked, you must immediately close the gas supply
and turn off the electrical power supply to avoid being shocked. In order to
do so, please switch off the fuse or pull the plug out of the power socket.
Next, you should report the malfunction to the service point.
Never use aggressive or corrosive agents (acids, sodium hydroxide or
hypochlorite, etc.) to clean the appliance.
The manufacturer is in no way liable in scope of the warranty if cleaning and
maintenance of the ceramic cooktop is mishandled.
Never clean the ceramic cooktop surface with abrasive instruments like
sandpaper or the rough side of a dishwashing sponge.
The cleaning agents and scrubbers dedicated to ceramic surfaces are available
from stores carrying household chemicals, drugstores, and stores carrying
household appliances and accessories. Never apply a cleaning agent onto a hot
ceramic surface. Wipe the cleaning agent off with a wet cloth before reheating
the ceramic surface or risk having the surface being damaged by the agent.
Optimal and recommended cooktop cleaning instruments
The scraper is used to remove burnt on layers and strong residue on the glass
(ceramic surface).
The ceramic surface of the cooktop can be cleaned only with an extended
scraper blade in accordance with its instruction manual. Otherwise, the
Customer is at risk of suffering physical injury and the cooktop is exposed to
having its surface scratched.
The scraper blade is very sharp. Please be careful, because you may cut yourself. When you are not using the scraper, make sure to secure the blade in accordance with the instructions of its manufacturer. A damaged blade must be promptly replaced.

subject to the same guidelines as cleaning of a glass surface. Never use the
following: – abrasive, aggressive, or corrosive cleaning agents, – scrubbing
powder, sandpaper, – corrosion removal agents, – high pressure or steam
washers, – dishwasher cleaning agents, – oven cleaning agents.
1. In order to clean the ceramic surface well, please first remove major
residue and food stains with a scraper or sponge dedicated to ceramic
surfaces.
2. Next, apply the right amount of the cleaning agent onto the ceramic
surface and distribute it with an appropriate sponge/cloth/paper towel. Leave
for 5 10 minutes.
3. Next, wipe off the surface with a wet cloth/sponge and wipe it dry. All
clean! Do not clean the cooktop until it is cold.

b) when the dirt is removed, you can turn off the ceramic cooktop and clean
the ceramic surface when it cools down according to the appropriate instance
discussed above
22
Examples of damaged ceramic surfaces not covered by the warranty:
Surface decoration damaged due to application of an inappropriate cleaning agent.
Permanent damage to the surface with sugar and products containing sugar.
Grains of sand, which may fall on the cooktop when you are peeling potatoes, rinsing lettuce, etc. may scratch the surface when you move the cookware. Please pay particular attention to keep grains of sand off the cooktop.
Never clean the ceramic cooktop surface with abrasive instruments like
sandpaper or the rough side of a dishwashing sponge.
Discolorations and scratches on the ceramic surface have no effect on the
operating order and stability of the cooktop. In most instances, they are the
consequence of burnt food residue or cookware (specifically cookware with
aluminium or copper bottoms) being moved on the surface. Such discolorations
are rather difficult to remove. All of the aforementioned discolorations and
scratches are purely aesthetical, result from the way the cooktop is used, and
are not covered by the warranty.
Maintenance of the ceramic cooktop surface
Do not perform maintenance on the cooktop until it is cold.
The cooktop must be subject to maintenance and protection agents dedicated to
ceramic glass, e.g. ceramic surface cleaning agents. Please follow the
guidelines of the manufacturer presented on the packaging of said agents.

gas supported by the cooktop as configured by the manufacturer can be found on
the rating plate of the ceramic gas cooktop. The manufacturer is not liable in
any way for damage to the ceramic cooktop or other damage resulting from
inappropriate gas supply installation, connection of the cooktop to an
inappropriate type of gas, connection of the cooktop to poor quality gas, or
installation of the cooktop by an individual without valid gas installation
authorisations. Using propane-butane LPG (G30 3B/P) in temperatures
surrounding the tank and the gas system below +15 °C may cause the cooktop to
malfunction. Only propane (G31 3P) is permitted when the ambient temperature
of the gas tank is below +15°C.
PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION to make sure that all connections are tight.
Following installation of the ceramic cooktop, please check the tightness of
all gas connections. Do not use open flame or ammonia solutions to check for
gas leaks. It is recommended to perform the gas tightness inspection with a
legally certified electronic gas detector. In the event of establishing any
leaks, you should immediately close the gas supply valve and effectively
remove the leak.
Guidelines for the gas installation technician
The DynaCook ceramic gas cooktop is equipped with a connection line with a ø 8
mm connector to make it possible to connect the cooktop to a gas system in
standard RVS 8 (e.g. manufactured by GOK).
The certified installation technician with valid gas installation
authorisations fills out and signs the Connection Certificate for the ceramic
gas cooktop, which is attached to this Manual (Attachment no. 1) . A filled
out and signed cooktop Connection Certificate serves as grounds to preserve
the warranty covering the purchased cooktop.
35
In order to ensure your safety, to avoid contamination of the internal gas
system of the cooktop, and to avoid damage and/or leakiness of the cooktop,
the manufacturer has secured the gas connector of the DynaCook ceramic gas
cooktop with a cap/seal.
The only individual authorised to remove the cap/seal is the gas installation
technician who is connecting the cooktop to the gas system. The cap/seal is to
be removed just before the cooktop is connected to the gas supply system and
should be confirmed by the installation technician in the cooktop Connection
Certificate. If the gas installation technician should determine that the
cap/seal of the connector is missing, this fact must be recorded in this
Connection Certificate. The manufacturer is not liable in any way for damage
to the ceramic cooktop or other damage resulting from removal of the cap/seal
of the gas connector by an unauthorised individual.
The gas installation technician should:
· Hold valid gas installation authorisations. · Read the information on the
rating plate of the ceramic gas cooktop, specifically in order to learn the
type of gas configured
in the cooktop by the manufacturer. This information must be compared with the
gas supply conditions in the location of installation.
· Check the following:
– the cap/seal on the ø 8 mm connector,
– ventilation efficiency, i.e. air exchanges inside the room, – tightness of
the gas fittings. · Perform the initial activation
Following installation of the ceramic cooktop, the gas installation technician
must perform the initial activation. When the cooktop is activated for the
first time, it may produce momentary “snorting” from the hot air exhaust. This
is normal, as it is caused by the air built up in the gas lines and burners.
This no longer occurs after the initial activation. · Fill out the Connection
Certificate for the ceramic gas cooktop (Attachment no. 1), which can be found
in the Warranty Card, and release it to the user.
Liquid gas (e.g. propane-butane)
Do not connect the ceramic cooktop to an LPG system in rooms equipped with
network gas.
The gas supply line should not come into contact with any metal elements of
the casing. The maximum length of the LPG (e.g. propane/butane) flexible hose
should not exceed 3 m. In the event of a longer system, you must ensure
appropriately-sized gas supply hoses.
The ø 8 mm connector of the cooktop is to be connected with an RVS 8 joint
(e.g. manufactured by GOK). A liquid gas regulator with the capacity and
output pressure according to the cooktop nameplate is attached to the cylinder
valve. All components of the gas installation must have safety certificates.
Electrical power supply
Using a voltage other than 12 V DC to power the cooktop from the vehicle or
boat installation may be dangerous to the user, cause damage to the plate and
result in the loss of warranty.
The cooktop is supplied with 12 V DC safety voltage directly from the vehicle
or boat installation. In order to ensure correct and safe operation of the
DynaCook gas ceramic hob, connect the hob wires to a 12 V DC electrical system
protected by a 4 A fuse (not included with the cooktop). The diagram of
connecting the cooktop directly to the 12 V DC installation of the vehicle or
boat is presented in the figures below:

Controlling and monitoring the gas, electrical power, and ventilation systems
In order to ensure proper and safe operating order of the DynaCook ceramic
cooktop, you must periodically check the operating order of the gas,
electrical power, and ventilation systems, including the following: –
inspecting the technical condition of the aforementioned systems, – reporting
concerns to the vehicle/boat owner or administrator the event of establishing
any inconsistencies in the technical
condition of the aforementioned systems.
Converting the cooktop to a different type of gas
The information on the type of gas supported by the cooktop according to the
configuration of the manufacturer can be found on the rating plate of the
ceramic cooktop. Due to the design, every cooktop is configured by the
manufacturer to a specific type of gas. The Customer should provide
information on the type of gas intended to be used when placing the order for
the cooktop. If the need to convert the cooktop to a different type of gas
should arise, please contact the Service Centre: tel. +48 606 649 549 e-mail:
[email protected] www.dynacook.pl in order to arrange the terms for converting
the cooktop to a type of gas other than that specified in its rating plate.
Converting the gas configuration by a service provider not authorised by the manufacturer is dangerous to the user, prohibited, and voids the warranty of the cooktop.
