replace it with the stipulated injector for a new gas supply. 3. Carefully reassemble all of the components. 4. After the injectors are replaced, it is advisable to strongly tighten the injector in place.

ADJUSTING THE MINIMUM LEVEL OF THE FLAME

Control Dial Gas Tap Sealing Ring
ADJUSTMENT SCREWS

· Turn the taps down to minimum.
· Remove the knob from the tap and place a small flat head screwdriver in the centre of the tap shaft.
· The correct adjustment has been reached when the flame has a length of around 3 4 mm.
· For butane/ propane gas, the adjusting screw must be tightly screwed in.
· Refit the control knob.
· Make sure that the flame does not go out by quickly turning from maximum flow to minimum flow. If it goes out, then remove the control knob and make further adjustments to the gas flow, testing it again once the adjustments have been made.

HOB SAFETY AND ENERGY SAVING
IMPORTANT: It is not recommended for roasting pans, frying pans or grill stones to be
heated at the same time on the hob, the resulting heat build up may damage the appliance. Do not touch the top plate while the hob is in use, or soon after use. Injury may occur. If liquid begins to boil over a pan when cooking, turn down the flame power to allow the liquid to settle and simmer gently. Do not leave boiling liquids unattended.
12

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
· Cleaning must only be carried out when the appliance has had sufficient time to cool down.
· The appliance should be disconnected from the mains before cleaning.
· Clean the appliance regularly, for best results, clean after each use.
· Abrasive cleaners or sharp objects will damage the appliance surface. Only clean using warm water and small amount of washing up liquid.
PAN SUPPORT
· Take off the pan supports, clean these and the control handles with a damp cloth and washing up liquid.
· When more intensive cleaning is necessary, soak the pan supports beforehand.
· Dry immediately to avoid corrosion.
TOP PLATE
· Regularly wipe over the top plate using a wet, soft cloth which has been well rung out in warm water and washing up liquid.
· Remove salty foods or liquids from the hob as soon as possible to avoid a risk of corrosion.
· Dry the top plate thoroughly after cleaning.
NOTE: Stainless steel parts of the appliance may become discoloured over time. This is
normal due to the high temperatures. Each time the appliance is used these parts should be cleaned with a product that is suitable for stainless steel.
13

BURNERS
· Remove the burner lids and flame spreaders by pulling them upwards and away from the top plate.
· Soak them in hot water with a small amount of detergent or washing up liquid. · After cleaning, wipe all parts dry and make sure that the flame holes are clean and
completely dry. · Wipe the fixed parts of the burner cup with a damp cloth and dry immediately. · Gently wipe the ignition device and flame supervision device with a well rung out cloth,
drying immediately after.
· Make sure that the injector is not blocked and remove any debris around it before
placing the burners back on the top plate.
RE-ASSEMBLE THE AUXILLARY, SEMI-RAPID, RAPID AND TRIPLE CROWN BURNERS
· Place the flame spreader (2) on the burner cup (3) so that the ignition device and the flame supervision device extend through their respective holes in the flame spreader.
