Ignition burners

Check to make sure that the gas supply is accessible and set up with the necessary and appropriate fittings/connectors.
Turn all control knobs to off position.
This device is fitted with a safety tap to control the gas flow. When the dot on the knob lines up with the following symbols on the panel, these conditions prevail:
| EHG8321BC/EHG9231BC/EHG9331BC/EHG8241GE/EHG8250BC/EHG9350BC/EHG8260GE
---|---
| EHG8251BC/EHG9251BC/EHG9351BC/EHG8260BC/EHG9261BC/EHG9361BC

To turn off the gas, rotate the knob anticlockwise until you feel the distinct click on the knob and the indicator on the knob is pointing to “0”.

To ignite, hold the knob and depress for several seconds, rotate anti-clockwise to maximum gas flow position. For models with thermocouple, keep the knob depressed about 5~8 seconds, otherwise the flame will extinguish.
If the burner does not light the first time, repeat Step 4.
If the flame extinguishes suddenly, repeat Step 4.
When using the unit again immediately after having once turned it off, wait for about ten seconds before re-igniting.
Each burner has its own independent ignitor.
When the burner is lit, turn the knob to adjust the flame size according to your needs. This needs no depression of the knob.

For burner fitted with a flame supervision device, if after 15 seconds of ignition operation the burner has not lit, stop operating the device and wait at least 1 minute before attempting a further ignition of the burner.

Using the hob correctly

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, it is strongly recommended that you use only pots and pans with a bottom fitting the size of the burner used, so that the flame will not spread beyond the bottom of the vessel (Table 1).
It is also advisable, as soon as the liquid starts boiling, to turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid simmering

Burner	Minimum Diameter	Maximum Diameter
Wok burner	120mm	280mm
Semi-rapid	120mm	260mm

Choice of burner

A semi-rapid burner is for special low heat, simmering and slow cooking.
A wok burner is for very fast heating using a wok or large pan.

NOTE:
Remember that a wide-bottomed pan allows a faster cooking than a narrow one.

Always use pots which properly fit what you have to cook.
Particularly make sure that the pans are not too small for liquids, since these could easily overflow.

The pans should not be too large for a faster cooking.
You should use pans with the right diameter to fit the burner, in order to make the most out of it, thus reducing gas consumption as in Fig 12.·

It is also advisable to cover any boiling casserole and as soon as the liquid starts to boil, lower the flame enough to keep the boiling point

Glass top

Persistent stains may require vigorous rubbing with nylon scourer or creamed powder cleansers. Household enamel cleaners are available, follow the manufacturer instructions in their use. Harsh abrasive cleaners, powder cleaners, steel wool or wax polishes should not be used.
Do not use the glass top as a work table.
Burner caps & crowns
These can all be lifted off and removed for separate cleaning.
Ensure burner caps and crowns are thoroughly dried after cleaning or spillage.
When cleaning the burner, ensure that all the flame ports, injector hole and other holes are free of any blockage. (Fig 13,14)
After cleaning, ensure the burner caps are reassembled properly into position.
After cleaning service, when assembling the burner crown and caps, care must be taken to ensure the spark plug is not knocked. The spark plug will crack if knocked and may face risk with flame ignition problem.

NOTE:
When refitting the burner caps & crowns, ensure that
