Main switch/Hob lock (Main Switch)
The hob may have a main switch to cut off the mains
gas supply and switch off all the burners at the same
time. This switch is very practical if there are children in
the house or, if for any reason, all the burners must be
switched off quickly.
To lock the hob:
Press the main switch.
This switches off all the burners which are on. The hob
is locked.
To unlock the hob:
1.
Turn all the control knobs to the "off" position.
2.
Press the main switch and turn it fully clockwise.
The mains gas supply is turned on. You can now use
your hob normally.
Warnings
It is normal to hear a soft whistling noise while the
burner is operating.
When first used, it is normal for the burner to give off
odours. This does not pose any risk and does not
indicate a malfunction. They will disappear in time.
An orange-coloured flame is normal. This is caused by
the presence of dust in the atmosphere, spilt liquids,
etc.
If the burner flames are accidentally blown out, switch
off the burner operating control knob and do not try to
relight it for at least 1 minute.

Use pans which are the
right size for each burner.
Do not use small pans on
large burners. The flame
must not touch the sides of
the pan.
Do not use damaged pans,
which do not sit evenly on
the hob. Pans may tip over.
Only use pans with a thick,
flat base.
Do not cook without using a
lid and make sure the lid is
properly fitted. This wastes
energy.
Always centre the pan over
the burner, not to one side.
Otherwise it could tip over.
Do not place large pans on
the burners near the control
knobs. These may be
damaged by the very high
temperatures.
Place the pans on the pan
supports, never directly on
the burner.
Make sure that the pan
supports and burner caps
are correctly positioned
before using the appliance.
Pans should be placed on
the hob carefully.
Do not strike the hob and
do not place excessive
weight on it.
