ETNA KGV Series Gas Hub
OPERATION
Description
- Rapid or wok burner (KGV558W)
- Standard burner
- Drip tray
- Pan support enamelled or cast iron (KGV558W)
- Control knobs
- Simmer burner
Ignition and adjustment
- zone indication
- 0 position
- High setting
- Low setting
Each burner is fully adjustable between high and low settings.
- While keeping the knob of the burner depressed, turn the knob to the left and light the burner with a match. The gas flame can now be smoothly adjusted from high to low.
- Keep the control knob fully depressed for at least 5 seconds between high and low settings. The thermocouple safety pilot has been activated.
Electrical spark switch (if applicable)
- Press the control knob and turn it anti-clockwise. The burner ignites. The gas flame can now be smoothly adjusted from high to low.
- If the burner fails to light after repeated attempts, check to ensure that the burner cap is properly positioned.
Flame failure device
- The flame failure device ensures that the gas supply is closed if the flame goes out during the cooking process.
- Keep the control knob fully depressed for at least 5 seconds between high and low settings. The thermocouple safety pilot has been activated.
Read the separate safety instructions before using the device!
Pans
- Always ensure than the flames stay under the pan. A lot of energy is lost if flames burn around the pan. The handles may also become too hot.
- Do not use pans with a base diameter smaller than 12 cm. Smaller pans are not as stable.
The recommended saucepan diameters are:
- rapid burner minimum 24 cm
- semi-rapid burner minimum 20 cm
- simmer burner minimum 12 cm.
Tip
Cooking with a lid on the pan saves up to 50% on energy. Clean saucepans
absorb heat more efficiently
Pan support
Place the pan supports vertically, without sliding over the drip tray. Use the
leads to position the pan supports on the drip tray.
Wok ring
The wok ring for use with the wok burner supplied or obtainable as an
accessory provides extra stability for woks with a round base.
MAINTENANCE
Clean the appliance daily with water and a detergent or all purpose cleaner. Avoid using too much water to prevent it entering the burner or ventilation openings.
- Remove stubborn stains on enamel with a non-abrasive cream or a soft sponge. Never use scouring powders, aggressive cleaning agents, green scours.
- Scourers contain abrasives that cause scratches on stainless steel. The stainless steel has a surface structure. Scouring or polishing will cause (shiny) patches on the surface. This damage is excluded from the guarantee.
Please note:
Do not drop hot burner caps or pan supports in cold water. Because of the
strong cooling they might get damaged.
Consult the www.etnaservice.nl website for
additional maintenance and cleaning instructions!
General
The fitting of the appliance should only be carried out by a registered
Corgi gas fitter.
Please note:
This appliance is not connected to a flue duct. Take care to ensure that there
is sufficient ventilation. Electrical connection (solely for appliances with a
spark switch) 230 V – 50 Hz.
This appliance complies the regulations concerning electromagnetic
compatibility in directive 89/336/EEC.
- The electrical connection must comply with national and local regulations.
- Wall socket and plug must be accessible at all times.
Gasconnection RC 1/2” (ISO 228/RC 1/2”)
- The gas connection must comply with national and local regulations.
- Amongst other things these regulations instruct that:
- only approved materials are to be used;
Please note:
The type of gas and the country for which the appliance has been designed are
indicated on the data badge.
- We recommend that the hob be connected by means of a fixed pipe. Connection using a specially designed safety hose is also permitted. In all cases the connection tap for the appliance must be positioned such that it is easily accessible, in an adjacent kitchen cupboard, for example.
Attention:
If the hob is fitted next to a high cupboard or next to some other structure
that is made of flammable material, maintain a minimum distance of 100 mm
between the hob and these structures. Maintain a minimum distance of 650 mm
between the hob and any extractor hood that is fitted above it.
- Before using the appliance for the first time check the connections using water and washing-up liquid to ensure that there are no gas leaks.
- After installation check that the appliance and the burners are working properly; the gas flames should be regular and stable when full on and the burners should not go out when turned to the lowest setting.
Mounting carrier feet
Screw the carrier feet on the bottom cover of the appliance with low clamping
force (see figure).
