Operation
1.
Lighting the Main Burners
The hot plates are fitted with individual standing pilots for each open burner which allows the main
burners to be turned ON- OFF without the need to manually re-light the burner each time that it is
turned ON, as the burner will be automatically lit itself by the pilot burner.
Flame Failure Protection is incorporated for each burner by way of a thermo-electric system which will
shut off the gas supply to that burner in the event that the burner goes out, so that un-burnt gas is not
expelled.
1. Select the burner required, depress and turn the corresponding gas control knob anti-clockwise to
the ‘PILOT’ position.
2. With the gas control knob depressed, manually light the pilot burner or use the piezo igniter
provided (optional).
3. Release the gas control knob after approximately 10-20 seconds after lighting the pilot burner.
4. The pilot burner should stay alight - if not, repeat Steps (b. to c. above.)
5. ‘Full Flame’ can now be achieved by depressing and rotating the gas control knob anti-clockwise
to the first stop 'HIGH' flame position.
6. Low flame can be achieved by depressing the gas control knob and rotating fully anti-clockwise
to the ‘LOW' flame position.
7. To achieve simmer control, depress the gas control knob and rotate between the ‘HIGH’ and
‘LOW’ positions to achieve the temperature required.
2.
Turning 'OFF' the Open Burners / Pilots
1. To turn 'LOW' the main burner, but keep the pilot burner alight, rotate the gas control knob to the
'PILOT' position. The main burner will extinguish and the pilot will remain alight.
2. To turn 'LOW' the 'PILOT', depress and turn the gas control knob clockwise back to the ‘

’
position. The 'PILOT' burner will extinguish.
