THE COUNTRY LEISURE COOKING APPLIANCES
Operating Instructions
Ensure the gas cylinder is turned on.
In the event of a gas smell turn off at the cylinder and contact supplier.
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which
it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated, keep natural ventilation holes open or install a
mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening a
window, or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where
present.

Hotplate Burners
▲
Glass lids may shatter when heated. Turn off all burners before shutting the lid.
▲
The glass lid has a tendency to snap shut towards the lowered position. Make sure all
fingers are removed from appliance when closing lid.
Each burner is controlled individually and is
monitored by a flame supervision device. In the
event of the burner flames being accidentally
extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not
attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one
minute. The respective knob positions are shown.
To light the burner, press in and turn the knob anti-
clockwise to the full rate position and apply a light
to the burner or, if fitted, press the ignition button
located on the oven control fascia. It is necessary to hold the knob depressed during ignition and for
approximately fifteen seconds after the burner has lit to allow the probe to reach temperature. Should
the flame go out when the knob is released, the procedure should be repeated holding the knob depressed
for slightly longer.
For simmering, turn the knob further anti-clockwise to the low rate position. To turn the burner off, rotate
knob fully clockwise until the line on the knob lines up with the dot on the control panel. The burners on
this appliance have fixed aeration and no adjustment is required. Depending on the gas being used,
the burners should flame as follows:
Propane
- The flames should burn quietly with a blue/green colour with no sign of yellow tips.
Butane
- Normally on initial lighting, a small amount of yellow tipping will occur and then slightly increases
as the burner heats up.
Care should be taken not to overload the appliance as reduced performance may result.
When using small pans, the flames should not spread beyond the base of the pan as this will reduce
the efficiency of the burner.
