plier. Escaping gas may cause an explosion. Small amounts of gas can collect over a longer period of time and ignite. Close the safety valve for the gas supply
when the appliance is out of use for prolonged periods.

Safetyen
Escaping gas may cause an explosion. If the liquefied gas bottle is not upright, liquefied propane/butane can enter the appliance. Intense darting flames may therefore escape from the burners. Components may become damaged and start to leak over time so that gas escapes uncontrollably. Always use liquefied gas bottles in an up-
right position. Escaping gas may cause an explosion. If the gas pressure in your distributing pipes is more than 20% higher than the values specified on the appliance’s rating plate, a gas leak can occur. For your own safety, it is imperative that
you operate the appliance with a suitable gas governor. If you do not know what the gas pressure in your gas distributing pipes is, please ask your local gas company. Connection, maintenance and setting of the gas governor must be carried out by an authorised installation specialist.
WARNING Risk of poisoning! Using the gas cooking appliance leads to a build-up of heat, moisture and combustion products in the room where the appliance is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is sufficiently ventil-
ated, in particular when operating the gas cooking appliance. If the appliance is used intensively and for prolonged periods, ensure that there is additional ventilation so that the combustion products are safely fed to the outside, e.g. if using existing ventilation equipment, set a higher performance level and, at the same time, ensure that the air is replaced with fresh air in the room where the appliance is installed. Consult specialist personnel when installing additional ventilation equipment.

Preventing material damage

2 Preventing material damage Preventingmaterialdamage
2.1Oven area
Follow the corresponding instructions when using the oven. ATTENTION! Objects on the cooking compartment floor at over 50 °C will cause heat to build up. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged. Do not place any accessories, greaseproof paper or
foil of any kind on the cooking compartment floor. Only place cookware on the cooking compartment
floor if a temperature above 50 °C has been set. If aluminium foil comes into contact with the door pane, it could cause permanent discolouration. Do not allow aluminium foil in the cooking compart-
ment to come into contact with the door pane. When the cooking compartment is hot, any water inside it will create steam. The change in temperature may cause damage. Never pour water into the cooking compartment
when it is still hot. Never place cookware containing water on the
cooking compartment floor. The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking compartment leads to corrosion. Allow the cooking compartment to dry after use. Do not keep moist food in the cooking compartment
for a long time with the door closed. Do not store food in the cooking compartment. Leaving the appliance to cool down with the door open will damage the front of neighbouring kitchen units over time. Always allow the cooking compartment to cool
down with the door closed after cooking at high temperatures. Take care not to trap anything in the appliance door. Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the door open if a lot of moisture was produced during operation. Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. When baking very juicy fruit flans, do not pack too much on the baking tray. If possible, use the deeper universal pan. Using oven cleaner in a hot cooking compartment damages the enamel. Never use oven cleaner in the cooking compartment when it is still warm. Remove all food remnants from the cooking compartment and the appliance door before you next heat up the appliance. If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer close properly during operation. This may damage the front of adjacent kitchen units. Keep the seal clean at all times. Never operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or missing.

Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may damage it. Do not place or hang objects on the appliance door. Do not place cookware or accessories on the appli-
ance door. If you carry or move the appliance by the handle on the cover or move, the handle may break off and cause damage to the hinges. The handle of the cover is not designed for the weight of the appliance. Do not carry or move the appliance by the handle
on the cover. When grilling, due to high temperatures, the baking tray or universal pan may become deformed and damage the enamel coating when they are removed. When grilling, do not insert the baking tray or univer-
sal pan higher than level 3. Above shelf position 3, only grill directly on the wire
insert.
2.2Hob with gas

enEnvironmental protection and saving energy

The glass lid may crack. Ensure that the upper cover is not closed, e.g. by
playing children, while you are using the hotplate. The handles or grips on pots or pans may be damaged. Place the pot or pan precisely in the centre of the
steel grid of the burner. This will optimise transfer of the heat from the
burner flame to the pot or ban base. The handle or grip does is not damaged, and
greater energy savings are guaranteed. The base of the pot or pan may be damaged. Cookware that is used on the hotplate must be se-
curely in place. Only use pots and pans with an even base. Do not heat up empty pots or pans. Damage may occur if hard or pointed objects fall on the hob. Do not let hard or pointed objects fall onto the hob. Do not hold and move the appliance at the gas pipe (collector). Damage to the gas pipe may lead to gas leak. The gas pipe is not designed for the weight of the appliance. Do not hold and move the appliance at the gas
pipe.

If you are cleaning food remnants or residue liquids that are penetrating below the hotplates into the the burner seat using lyes or similar chemicals, this may lead to damage to the gas components. If you remove the food remnants or residue liquids

Environmental protection and saving energy

3.1Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled. Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less energy. Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the recommended settings tell you to do so. ¡ Not preheating the appliance can reduce the en-
ergy used by up to 20%. Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking tins. ¡ These types of baking tin absorb the heat particu-
larly well. Open the appliance door as little as possible during operation. ¡ This maintains the temperature in the cooking com-
partment and eliminates the need for the appliance to reheat. When baking multiple dishes, do so in succession or in parallel. ¡ The cooking compartment is heated after baking the first dish. This reduces the baking time for the subsequent cakes. For longer cooking times, you can switch the appliance off 10 minutes before the cooking time ends. ¡ There is sufficient residual heat to finish cooking the dish.

Remove any accessories that are not being used from the cooking compartment. ¡ Accessories that are not being used do not need to
be heated. Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking. ¡ This saves the energy that would otherwise be re-
quired to defrost it. Note: In standby mode, the appliance requires: ¡ Max. 1 W for appliance versions with a clock on the
display ¡ Max. 0.5 W for appliance versions without a clock
on the display
Saving energy If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less energy. Choose a burner roughly the same size as your pan. Centre the cookware on the hob. Tip: Cookware manufacturers often give the upper diameter of the saucepan. It is often larger than the base diameter. ¡ Unsuitable cookware or incompletely covered cook-
ing zones consume a lot of energy. Cover saucepans with suitable lids. ¡ Cooking without a lid consumes considerably more
energy. Lift lids as infrequently as possible. ¡ When you lift the lid, a lot of energy escapes.
Use a glass lid. ¡ You can see into the pan through a glass lid
without having to lift it.

8

Installation and connectionen

Use pots and pans with flat bases. ¡ Uneven bases increase energy consumption. Use cookware that is suitable for the quantity of food. ¡ Large items of cookware containing little food need
more energy to heat up.

Cook with only a little water. ¡ The more water that is contained in the cookware,
the more energy is required to heat it up. Turn down to a lower power level early on. ¡ If you use an ongoing power level that is too high,
you will waste energy.

Baking on three levels Baking trays Universal pan Baking trays

Shelf position 5 3 1

Notes ¡ When baking on several layers, use hot air. Different
food that is placed in the oven at the same time will not necessarily be ready at the same time. In such cases, you can remove the cooked food and continue to cook the other baking tray. If necessary, you can change the position and direction of the baking trays. ¡ Position baking tins/dishes either next to one another or offset on different shelves so that they are not directly one above the other in the cooking compartment. You can cut energy use by cooking different items at the same time. ¡ For best results, we recommend using dark- coloured metal baking tins.

21.3Notes on roasting and grilling
The setting values are based on the assumption that unstuffed, chilled, ready- to-roast poultry, meat or fish is placed into a cold cooking compartment. ATTENTION! Acidic food may damage the grid Do not place acidic food, such as fruit or food with
an acidic marinade directly on the pan support. ¡ The larger the poultry, meat or fish, the lower the
temperature and the longer the cooking time. ¡ Turn the poultry, meat or fish after approx. 1/2 to
2/3 of the time listed. ¡ Add a little liquid to the poultry in the cookware.
Cover the base of the cookware with approx. 1­ 2 cm of liquid. ¡ When you turn poultry, ensure that the breast side or skin side is underneath to begin with. ¡ Use tongs to turn the pieces of food you are grilling. If you pierce the meat with a fork, the juices will run out and it will become dry. ¡ Only add salt to steaks once they have been grilled. Salt draws water from the meat.
Information for those allergic to nickel In rare cases, small amounts of nickel may pass into the food.

7. Note: Remove the screws that are mentioned below so that the switch and the electronic parts are not damaged. Remove the four screws (M4) that are uncovered when you remove the control knobs (T15) from the control panel.

Installation instructionsen 3. Check that the seals on the bypass nozzles are
seated correctly and work properly. Only use bypass nozzles with absolutely faultless seals.

8. Note: In order to access the bypass nozzles on the right-hand side, turn the control panel clockwise slightly. In order to access the bypass nozzles on the left side, turn the control panel anti-clockwise slightly. Ensure that the cables are not damaged and the connections do not come loose. Grip the panel with both hands and slowly pull it upwards. Remove the panel from the fastening lugs. Then carefully pull the panel forwards to remove it. Ensure that the cables are not damaged and that the connections do not come loose.
Replacing bypass nozzles 1. Use a flat-head screwdriver (no. 2) to unscrew the
bypass nozzles. Remove the bypass nozzles.
2. Select the appropriate replacement bypass nozzles from the table. You can find additional information about this in the section entitled “Technical data ­ Gas” Page 38.

4. Insert the new bypass nozzles and tighten them securely. Ensure that all bypass nozzles have been fastened to the correct taps.
5. At this stage, it is important to test for leaks. You can find additional information about this in the section entitled “Leak and function test” Page 37.
Fitting the control panel To reassemble, proceed in the reverse order of disassembly. 1. Take hold of the front panel with both hands and
carefully fit it into place. Ensure that the cables are not damaged and the connections do not come loose. Lower it slightly and insert it into the front panel. 2. Insert the screws (T15) (M4) that were removed from the control panel. 3. Insert and tighten the screws (T20) that were removed from the front profiles on the right and left. Attach the plastic covers. 4. Carefully install the hob. Ensure that the plastic parts which must remain underneath the screws do not fall out. Unscrew the two screws (T20) on the front left and right on the hob. If there are any burner connection screws, screw them all into the cooktop. 5. Install the burner bases in their respective positions according to their size. Make sure that the ignition plugs are placed in the appropriate openings next to the burner bases. Place the enamelled burner lids onto the centre of the appropriate lower parts of the burner and, in doing so, note the sizes. Fit the pan support grids and the pan support
racks. Ensure that the 80 mm pan support is fitted on the auxiliary burner. 6. If the appliance has a covering plate, hold it vertically by both sides and slowly reinsert it into the holder. 7. Carefully insert the knobs. At this stage, it is important to check that the gas burners are burning correctly. You can find additional information about this in the section entitled “Checking the correct burner behaviour” Page 38. 8. Check whether the appliance is working correctly.
22.6Leak test and function test
The leak test must be carried out by two people.

enInstallation instructions

WARNING Risk of explosion! Sparks, flames or open flames may cause explosions during the leak and function test. Ensure that no sparks are produced. Do not use any fire or naked flames. Only check the leak tightness using a suitable foam. Gas leak ¡ Close the gas connection locking device. ¡ Ventilate the relevant location sufficiently. ¡ Check the gas and nozzle connections once more. ¡ Repeat the leak test Page 37.
Checking the gas connection 1. Open the gas connection shut-off. 2. Apply suitable foam around the gas connection. a If dispersions and bubbles occur on the foamy sur-
face and these indicate that gas is escaping, follow the instructions in the section entitled “What to do if there is a gas leak” Page 37. 3. Follow the same instructions for the part that is sealed with the blind plug.
Checking the cooker burner nozzles Check the leak tightness of each nozzle. 1. Open the gas connection shut-off. 2. To check, carefully cover the hole in the burner
nozzle with your finger or a special device. 3. Apply suitable foam around the nozzle. 4. Press on the burner knob and turn the knob anti-
clockwise. Gas therefore comes to the nozzle. a If dispersions and bubbles occur on the foamy sur-
face and these indicate that gas is escaping, follow the instructions in the section entitled “What to do if there is a gas leak” Page 37.
Checking the bypass nozzles Check the leak tightness of each bypass nozzle. 1. Open the gas connection shut-off. 2. To check, carefully cover the hole in the burner
nozzle with your finger or a special device. 3. Apply suitable foam around the bypass nozzle on
the burner that is to be checked. 4. Press on the tap spindle and turn it anti-clockwise.
Gas therefore comes to the nozzle. a If dispersions and bubbles occur on the foamy sur-
face and these indicate that gas is escaping, follow the instructions in the section entitled “What to do if there is a gas leak” Page 37.

22.7Checking the correct burner behaviour
Check the burning and soot formation of each burner after the product has been converted to a different gas type. If there is a problem, compare the nozzle values with the values in the table.
Checking the correct burner behaviour of the cover burner 1. Ignite the gas cooker burners in accordance with
the instructions in the operating manual. “Operating the hotplate”, Page 17 2. Set the gas cooker knob to the small flame setting. Check whether the flame safety system is working by keeping the flame at the “small flame” setting for one minute. 3. Check that the burners are burning correctly with both large and small flames. a The flame must burn evenly and steadily. 4. Turn the burner knob back and forth quickly between the large flame setting and the small flame setting. Repeat this process several times. a The gas flame must not flicker or go out.
