Practical tips for using the hob

For better burner efficiency, to minimise gas consumption and to prevent damage to the hob, use pans with lids and of suitable size for the burner, so that the flames do not reach up the sides of the pan. Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to ensure that the liquid does not boil over.

Instructions for using griddles

A few precautions are necessary if you wish to use a griddle:

• On 60 cm models, the dimensions of the griddles should be such that they do not extend beyond the edge of the hob and that they are not close to the knobs if they are placed on a single burner.
• On 70 cm models, the maximum size of the griddle should be approximately 35 x 26 cm and it should only be placed horizontally on the UR2 burner
• On 90 cm models, only place the griddle vertically on the UR2 burner.
• The griddles can pre-heated empty for a maximum of 5 minutes. Place the food on the griddle. Cook the food without using the griddle for more than 40 minutes.
• If you use a griddle made from refractory material (cast iron, steatite or terracotta) use it for a maximum of 20 minutes and reduce the burner power to a minimum if cooking for a long time.
• Make sure that the burner flame does not extend beyond the edge of the griddle.
• Keep a minimum distance of 150 mm and 50 mm from the edge of the griddle and the side and rear walls respectively (see “Section cut from the worktop”).
• Do not place the griddle over more than one burner at the same time.

Using the hob

• All the appliance’s control and monitoring devices are located together on the front panel. The burner controlled by each knob is shown next to the knob. The appliance is equipped with an electronic ignition device. Simply press the knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the maximum flame symbol, until the burner ignites. If the burner does not light in the first 15 seconds, turn the knob to and wait 60 seconds before trying again. After lighting, keep the knob pressed in for a few seconds to allow the thermocouple to heat up. The burner may go out when the knob is released: In this case, the thermocouple has not heated up sufficiently. Wait a few moments and repeat the operation. Keep the knob pressed in longer.

In case of an accidental switching off, a safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas cock is open. Return the knob to and wait at least 60 seconds before lighting it again.

Correct positioning of the flame-spreader crowns and burner caps

Before lighting the hob burners, make sure that the flame-spreader crowns are correctly positioned in their housings with their respective burner caps. Make sure that the holes in the burners are aligned with the igniters and thermocouples. Also ensure that the flamespreader crowns are correctly engaged in the burner holes.

Correct positioning of the pan supports

Under the pan supports there are silicone rests with a hole that must be centred onto the matching fixing pins on the surface.

Make sure that the pan supports are simply centred on their respective burners, without forcing them to be raised or tilted. If they are, repeat the positioning procedure. If you find that a pan is particularly unstable, make sure that the grids have not been positioned incorrectly.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the hob

Cooking hob pan support grids Remove the pan support grids and clean them in lukewarm water and non-abrasive detergent. Make sure to remove any encrustations. Dry them thoroughly and return them to the hob.

The continuous contact between the pan supports and the flame can cause modifications to the enamel over time in those parts exposed to heat. This is a completely natural phenomenon that has no effect on the operation of this component.

Flame-spreader crown and burner caps

For easier cleaning, the flame-spreader crowns and the burner caps can be removed. Wash them in hot water and non-abrasive detergent. Carefully remove any encrustation, then wait until they are perfectly dry. Replace the flame spreader crowns, making sure that they are correctly positioned in their housings with their respective burner caps.

Igniters and thermocouples

For correct operation the igniters and thermocouples must always be perfectly clean. Check them frequently and clean them with a damp cloth if necessary. Remove any dry residues with a wooden toothpick or a needle.

Cleaning the hob

Cleaning the surfaces To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first.

Ordinary daily cleaning

Always and only use specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. Pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.

Weekly cleaning

Clean and maintain the hob once a week using an ordinary glass cleaning product. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions. The silicon in these products creates a protective, water-repellent membrane which also resists dirt. All marks stay on the membrane and can therefore be removed easily. After cleaning, dry the surface with a clean cloth. Make sure that there is no detergent left on the cooking surface as it might undergo an aggressive reaction when heated up and could modify the structure of the cooking surface.

Food stains or residues

Light-coloured marks from pans with aluminium bases can be easily cleaned off with a cloth moistened in vinegar. Remove any burnt-on residues after cooking; then rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth. Changes in colour do not affect the operation and stability of the glass. These are not alterations to the material of the hob but just residues which have not been removed and have then carbonised. Shiny surfaces can form due to the use of inappropriate cleaning products. They are difficult to remove using conventional cleaning products. It may be necessary to repeat the cleaning process several times. Using harsh detergents can wear away the decoration on the hob over time and contribute to the formation of stains.

• We recommend the use of cleaning products distributed by the manufacturer.
• After cleaning, dry the appliance thoroughly to prevent any water or detergent from interfering with its operation or creating unsightly marks

What to do if…
The hob does not work:

• Make sure that the hob is connected and that the main switch is turned on.
• Make sure that there is no power failure.
• Make sure that the fuse has not blown. In this case replace the fuse.
• Make sure that the circuit breaker of the residential electrical system has not tripped. In this case, reset the circuit breaker.

The cooking results are unsatisfactory:

• Make sure that the hob is properly ventilated and that the air inlets are unobstructed.

The hob smokes:

• Let the hob cool down and clean it once cooking is complete.
• Make sure that the food has not spilled out of the pan and use a larger cooking vessel, if needed.
