8.Servicing and maintenance
·
Use only genuine Totai Spares. These are available from your local gas supplier or directly
from
Totai. The contact details for Totai are on the back page of this booklet.
·
Do not use any abrasive cleaning products on the hob as this will scratch the surface finish. It is normal
practice to remove the Pot grids for cleaning and to use a hot soapy water solution to remove any
spillage residues.
·
Remove all packing materials and protective film, where used
·
The power for the automatic spark ignition is provided by a Type D 1,5v dry cell battery(see Fig 2). The
battery box is on the underside on the hob situated on the front edge. It has a hinged lid for easy
access. It is recommended to replace the battery every 6 months

6. Using the gas hob
·
Make sure that the area behind the hob is kept clear and that there are no flammable materials above
the hob.
4. Preparing the appliance for use
·
Ensure that the burners and burner caps are correctly fitted into their specific locations
·
Check that the pot support grids are in place.
·
To adjust the flame to the required level, turn the burner control knob further in an anti clockwise
direction to reduce the flame. If turned fully in this direction, the flame will continue to burn at the
simmer position. Turning the control knob back to the mid position will give the maximum flame level.
·
To light the burners push in and turn the control knob of the burner you wish to light in an anti clockwise
direct to the mid position. ( see Fig.8) This will generate the automatic ignition spark causing the
burner to ignite.
·
Note that each burner is fitted with a flame failure sensor which will shut off the gas supply if the burner
flame goes out. After lighting the burner hold the control knob in the pressed in position for 5-10
seconds to allow the flame failure sensor to function correctly, If the flame goes out when the knob is
released, repeat the light procedure and hold the control knob in for a few more seconds
·
Turning the control knob in a clockwise direction from the mid position will again reduce the flame level
and it the knob is turned fully in a clockwise direction to the Off position it will shut down the burner.
·
When cooking always use the burner that suits the pot size. For the most effective use of the burners
use the recommended pot sizes indicated below:
Small burner: 100mm-140 mm dia
·
Repeat the above process to ignite the other burners as required.
·
This will ensure that you will achieve the best cooking efficiency. If the flame appears to extend up
the sides of the pot either place the pot on a larger burner or reduce the flame height by adjusting
the required burner control knob. The small burner is ideal for simmering.
5. Lighting the Burners
Medium burner; 200mm-240mm dia

The gas hob is an unflued appliance and as such it is important from a safety perspective to
supply fresh air into the room in which the appliance is used. It is recommended that this is
achieved by means of a permanent opening such as an air brick, or a opening window that is kept
in an open position whilst the appliance is being used.
·
Indirect ventilation is also allowed by taking air from rooms adjacent to the one to be ventilated.

10.1 Fitting instructions
·
Before installing the appliance, make sure
that the LP Gas supply is capable of
delivering the required quantity of LP Gas at
the operating pressure shown in the table on
page 2.
·
Note:
After installation and before handing
over the appliance to the user. Check the
min. flame setting on all the burners. This can
be individually adjusted by inserting a small
flat blade screwdriver into the hole in the
control valve spindle for each burner and
turning it in a clockwise or anti clockwise
direction to increase or decrease the flame as
required. Once set this does not require
further adjustment by the user.
·
It is essential that the cut out in the mounting
surface is shown in Fig 5 and that a
minimum clearance of 300mm on the left and
right hand sides on the hob be established.
The 300mm clearance requirement also
applies to the walls adjacent to the appliance
(see fig 9). See also the cardboard template
that is supplied with the appliance to aid in
placing the cut out in the correct position in
the mounting surface.
·
The LP Gas hobs covered by this instruction
manual are for domestic use only and may
not be installed or used for commercial
applications.
10.Installer information
·
The surface in which the gas hob is mounted
and installed shall be not less than 30mm
thick and shall be of a heat resistant non
combustible material.
·
This LP Gas hob may only be installed by a
registered gas installer.
·
It is important to note that the gas hob is an
unflued gas appliance and as such it may
only be installed in a well ventilated area. It
uses oxygen, and lack of ventilation may
cause oxygen depletion which could
endanger the life of the occupants of the area
in which the gas hob is installed.
·
If a shelf is fitted to the space below the hob it
is important that this be placed at least
150mm below the underside of the hob
