USING YOUR COOKTOP
Congratulations
Congratulations and thank you for choosing our Product. We are sure you will find your new
cooktop a pleasure to use and a great asset to your cooking. Before you use the cooktop, we
recommend that you read through the whole user manual which provides the description of the
cooktop and its functions. To avoid the risks that are always present when you use a gas
appliance, it is important that the cooktop is installed correctly and that you read the safety
instructions carefully to avoid misuse and hazards. For future reference, please store this booklet
in a safe place.
Using Your Cooktop
Aerosol sprays
Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of this appliance while it is in operation as aerosols
can contain flammable propellants.
Warning – Ventilation
Where this appliance is installed in any confined area, the area must be properly
ventilated. It MUST NOT be used as a space heater.
Controls
• Each burner is controlled by a control knob. The markings on the
control panel indicate which burner the knob controls, and the
settings for that burner. (See Figure 2)
NOTE:
Gas controls turn anticlockwise from ʻOFFʼ and have
limited movement.
Lighting burners
Electronic Ignition:
These cooktops are fitted with mains powered or battery ignition. When the
appliance has been connected and the power is on, depressing any knob will release sparks to all
burners. (Except push button ignition. See push button ignition models.)
To light a burner, depress the corresponding knob and turn to the ʻHIGHʼ position (while
depressing the knob). The knob may be released once the flame is established.
For
Push Button Ignition Models,
turn the knob to the ʻHIGHʼ position and press the ignition button
down until the flame is established. The height of the flame can be varied by turning the knob
toward the ʻLOWʼ position.
• Keep hands clear of burners when lighting.
• If burner does not light within 5 seconds, turn knob to ʻOFFʼ position, allow gas
to disperse, then try lighting again.
• Burners MUST be operated between ʻHIGHʼ and ʻLOWʼ
settings only.
In the absence of electrical power, carry out the ignition directly to the burner with a hand held
ignition source.
