The symbol above indicates which gas burner the knob operates.
AUTOMATIC IGNITION WITH FLAME FAILURE SAFETY DEVICE
Your Esatto cooktop is fitted with a flame failure safety device on each burner, which is designed to stop the flow of gas
to the burner head in the event of the flame going out.
To ignite a burner:
→
Press in the control knob of the burner that you wish to light and turn it anti-clockwise to
the maximum position.
→
If you keep the knob depressed, the automatic ignition for the burner will operate.
→
You should hold down the control knob for 10 secs after the flame on the burner has lit.
→
After this 10-second interval, turn the control knob to your required setting between the
maximum and minimum setting symbols.
→
To switch the burner off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to the gas off position.
→
In case of power failure, the burners can be lit by carefully using a match.
SUITABLE PANS
Refer to the chart below and ensure that the pan diameter falls within the minimum and maximum diameters given for
the burner to you using. A pan base which is too small will be unstable on the pan support. If the pan diameter is too
large, flames can spread out to the sides and damage or burn the worktop, wall claddings or surrounding units and also
parts of the cooktop. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for this type of damage.
→
Wide, shallow pans are preferable to tall, narrow ones. They will heat up faster.
→
Select pans which are suitable for the burner they are to be used on. In general: use
larger diameter pans on the large burners, and smaller diameter pans on the small
burners.
→
Pans with thick bases are preferable as these distribute heat more evenly. With thin
bases, there is a danger of food overheating in places. Stir the food frequently.
→
Any heat-resistant pans can be used on a gas burner.
→
Always place the pan on the pan support supplied with the cooktop. Do not place a pan
directly on top of the burner.
→
Remember when purchasing new pans that manufacturers usually refer to the diameter
at the top of the pan in their documentation.
→
Use a lid whenever possible to minimise heat loss.
→
When using a wok make sure that the base does not touch the burner. A distance of 1 cm
should be maintained between the burner and the base of the wok pan above it.
WARNING!
Place pots and pans flat on the cooktop trivets to ensure they do not tip over. Slight tilting cannot always
be avoided.
