OPERATING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Lighting gas hotplate, grill and oven
Electronic ignition (For models WFE614, WFE612,
WFE616 and WFE512)
These hobs are fitted with mains powered electronic ignition.
When the appliance has been connected and the power is on,
depressing any knob will release sparks to all burners. To light
a burner, depress the corresponding knob and while continuing
to depress knob turn anticlockwise to ‘HI’ position. The knob
may be released once the flame is established, and turned
further anticlockwise to reduce the flame height as desired.
Push button Ignition (For models WFG612)
Turn appropriate burner control knob to maximum and at the
same time press the ignition switch.
Flame safeguard models (For models WFE614, WFE612,
WFG612, WFE512)
Models with flame safeguard have the same ignition procedure
as above but require the knob to continue to be depressed
after flame is established for approximately 5 seconds. If the
flame goes out when the knob is released, simply depress the
knob again, this time holding it down with slightly more force
for the same length of time.
WARNING
WARNING
• Keep hands clear of burners when lighting.
• If burner does not light within 5 seconds, turn knob to
‘Off’ position, allow gas to disperse, then try lighting
again.
• Burners MUST be operated between ‘HIGH’ and ‘LOW’
settings only.
ENVIRONMENTAL TIPS
ENVIRONMENT
To conserve gas, place the pan centrally over the burner and
adjust the flame so that it does not go past the edge of the
cookware.
NOTE: In the absence of electrical power, carry out the ignition
directly to the burner with a hand held ignition source.
Grill ignition (For models WFG612)
Turn Grill Control Knob onto maximum and at the same time
press Electronic Ignition Switch. This burner also has flame
failure, so it is required to depress the knob approximately
5 seconds after the flame is established. If the flame goes out
when the knob is released, simply depress the knob again,
this time holding it down with slightly more force for the same
length of time.
Grill – in oven
Grill is electric and is operated by control knob only.
Oven ignition – electronic (For model WFG612)
Push and hold Oven Control Knob onto desired temperature
and at the same time press the Electronic Ignition Switch.
Hold control knob in for 5 seconds after ignition.
