Gas Hob Operating Instructions
Page 11 of 16
THE FIRST TIME THE HOB IS CONNECTED TO
THE ELECTRICITY MAINS, THE KEYPAD WILL
BE LOCKED, AS IS THE CASE EVERY TIME
ELECTRICITY IS RESTORED AFTER A
BLACKOUT OR DISCONNECTION; THE T2
BUTTON SHOULD THEREFORE BE PRESSED
IN ORDER TO UNLOCK THE KEYPAD.
AT THIS POINT THE APPLIANCE IS READY
FOR OPERATION.
•
In some cases the non-ignition of a
burner may be due to air which has
become trapped in the gas piping. To
make it easier for this air to escape, we
recommend that one of the other burners
is activated.
SWITCHING ON THE HOB
Press button T1 (general on/off device):
•
NOTE: the “on” status of the hob is
indicated by the fact that all the burner
displays show “0” (or a flashing “H” if the
corresponding burner is hot due to
previous use).
•
Press one of the buttons (+ or -) which
corresponds to the burner you wish to
ignite.
•
If the + button is pressed, the burner is
ignited in its safety mode and after
approximately 3 seconds automatically
begins operating at its minimum power
level; at this point, if you continue
pressing the + button, it is possible to
increase the power level until it reaches
level 9 (max).
•
If the – button is pressed, the burner is
ignited in its safety mode and after
approximately 3 seconds begins
operating at its maximum power level
(power level 9) and remains there; at this
point, if you continue pressing the –
button, it is possible to decrease the
power level until it reaches level 1 or the
burner is switched off (level 0).
SWITCHING OFF A BURNER
•
Press the + and – buttons corresponding
to the burner you wish to switch off
simultaneously.
•
Alternatively: Press the – button until
level 0 is reached.
•
Alternatively: Press button T1 (all burners
switch off, even if the lock function has
been activated; window D1 is activated).
SETTING A COOKING TIME
•
An operating duration may be set for one
burner (the procedure can be performed
on all burners but only one at a time; it is
not possible to have several burners
operating with a set duration).
•
The burner may be operating already or
still switched off (it can only be switched
on after the cooking duration has been
set).
BURNER SELECTION AND OPERATION
The burners differ in size and power. Select the
most suitable burner in accordance with the
diameter of the cookware you wish to use.
•
The oo symbols in the control area (M)
indicate the position of the relevant
burner on the hob.
•
The burners have thermocouple safety
devices which offer protection against
gas leaks. If the burner flame is
extinguished during operation, the
ignition device is activated in an attempt
to re-ignite the flame. If this fails, after
less than 6 seconds, the flow of gas to
the burner is blocked and the
corresponding display shows the text
“F2”.
•
Do not attempt ignition again for at
least 1 minute, so that the escaped
gas in the vicinity of the burner is able
to disperse properly.
