General information about cooking 

 

DANGER 
Risk of fire by overheated oil! 

When heating oil, do not leave it 
unattended. 

Never try to extinguish a fire with 
water!

 When oil has caught fire, 

immediately cover the pot or pan with a 
lid. Switch off the hob if safe to do so 
and phone the fire service. 

• 

off the cooking zones after cooking is complete. 

• 

As the surface of the appliance can be hot, do not 
place plastic and aluminum vessels on it. 

• 

Plastic and aluminum vessels should not be used 
to keep foods in. 

• 

Use flat bottomed saucepans or cooking vessels 
only. 

• 

Place only the appropriate amount of food in 
saucepans and pans. Doing so will assist with 
regards to not having to do any unnecessary 
cleaning as this will help prevent the dishes from 
overflowing. 

• 

Do not put covers of saucepans or pans on the 
cooking zones. 

• 

Place saucepans so that they are centered on the 
cooking zone. When moving the saucepan onto 
another cooking zone, lift and place it onto the  
other cooking zone instead of sliding it. 

Gas cooking  

• 

The size of the cooking vessel and the flame must 
be  suited  to  each  other.  Adjust  the  gas  flames  so 
that  they  do  not  extend  past  the  bottom  of  the 
cooking vessel and ensure that the cooking vessel 
is centered on the saucepan carrier.

 

Normal burner 18–20 cm 

Auxiliary burner 12–16 cm 

 
The  above  list  denotes  the  recommended  diameters 
of pots to be used on related burners. The large flame 
symbol indicates the highest cooking power and small 
flame  symbol  indicates  the  lowest  cooking  power.  In 
the turned off position (top), gas is not supplied to the 
burners. 
 

Igniting the gas burners 

Burner is not equipped with automatic ignition. Use a 
lighter or match. 
1.Keep the burner knob pressed in. 
2.Turn it counter clockwise to the large flame symbol. 
3.Ignite the hob with lighter. 
4.Adjust it to the desired cooking power.

• 

Carefully align the hole in the burner body with the 
flame failure sensor. 

• 

Gently lower the burner body into position. 

• 

Centralise  and  level  the  burner  cap  onto  the 
burner  body.  (The  burner  cap  must  be  positioned 
so  that  it  rests  centrally  on  the  burner  body). 
Ensure  that  it  is  correctly  seated.  Refit  the  pot 
stands.

• 

Before frying foods, always dry them well and 
gently place into the hot oil. Ensure complete 
thawing of frozen foods before frying. 

• 

Do not cover the pot or pan being used when 
heating oil. 

• 

Place the pans and saucepans in a manner so that 
their handles are not over the hob to prevent 
heating of the handles. Do not place unbalanced 
and easily tilting cooking vessels on the hob. 

• 

Do not place empty pots and saucepans on 
cooking zones that are switched on. They might get 
damaged. 

• 

Operating a cooking zone without a pot, pan or 
saucepan on it may cause damage to the 
appliance. Turn off the cooking zones after cooking 
is complete.
