When using the gas hob, please protect it from
external air, which may cause uneven heating or even
extinguish the flame.
When cooking food with vegetable oil and animal fats,
you should be careful to avoid fires caused by
overheating oil in the pan.
If fire is caused by overheated oil, immediately use an
iron pot lid or other large metal object to cover the fire,
in order to cut off the air needed for burning, and then
turn off the indoor gas valve. In order to avoid
accidents, never use water to put out oil or grease fire.
Whenever the burner is extinguished for any reason,
you should turn it off and wait for at least 1 minute
before re-igniting the burner.
Normal operation of gas hob should not cause any
unusual noise. If you have any doubts, please contact
our local service center.
After use:
Remember to close the gas shut-off valve on the
indoor pipeline, when you have finished using the gas
hob.
Using a pan with a thick base can improve heat
distribution, especially for small flames when the gas
is on a low setting. The higher efficiency of gas hob is
achieved when the bigger size of pan is used. This
can also save energy.
Each time you move the pan away for a short time,
turn the burner to the small-flame position or off. Even
when you do other operations near the hob this is a
good rule of thumb. Turning the flame down will also
reduce the risk of burning, save gas, and reduce
pollution.
When you use a big stove, ensure there is a distance
of at least 25 mm between the stove and the
surrounding combustible materials. In addition the
distance between the knob and the stove should be
at least 50 mm.

Key Information
Before first use:
Please clean the hob and its accessories thoroughly.
This will remove the ‘new’ smell of the hob.
Before using, ensure the gas pipeline, knobs, burner
heads and caps, and supports have been mounted
correctly. Then, open the indoor gas valve.
The first ignition (or the ignition after it has been left
unused for a long time) may be difficult, as there is
residual air in the gas pipeline, it may be difficult to
light the burner. This is a normal phenomenon. Please
repeat the igniting operations, until the hob has ignited
properly.
When in use:
When cooking with the gas hob, do not leave it
unattended. Be sure to turn it off completely before
leaving the room.
Gas Poisoning Warning!
When using the hob, make sure to open the windows
or turn on the exhaust fan of the range hood so as to
keep good ventilation around the gas hob. The gas
hob may cause carbon monoxide poisoning if you are
using the gas hob in a closed kitchen with no
ventilation for an extended time.
Explosion Warning!
If you detect a gas leakage while operating the gas
hob, you should turn off the indoor main gas valve
immediately, and then open windows and doors for
ventilation. Do not use matches or lighters at this time.
Creating a flame at this time may ignite the residual
gas in the room and cause an explosion. In the case
of a leak, please contact your local service center
immediately.
Fire Warning!
Do not ignite the gas hob for heating when no pan is
placed on it or there is no food in the pan. This may
cause the extraction hood over the gas hob to be
damaged by overheating, or cause a fire if the residual
grease in the extraction hood is ignited.
Burn risk!
Do not let unattended children use or stand next to the
gas hob while it is in use. Once the gas hob has been
turned off, it remains very hot and dangerous for
several minutes. At this time to avoid burn injury, avoid
touching the hot burners, supports and the faceplate
around the burners with your hands or other part of
your body.
