Ceramic glass is insensitive to tem-
perature shock and very robust:
however it is not unbreakable.
Especially sharp and hard objects
that fall on the cooking surface
can damage it.
Ceramic hob
Burners
The burners are made up of a burner
body, a burner ring and a burner cap.
Each burner has electrical ignition
which means you do not need
matches to light it. Each burner has a
safety device. If the flame goes out,
the safety device will automatically
shut off the gas supply.

To optimise joints between the installed hobs, the gap between the ceramic hob
may be grouted with silicone:
1. Remove the aluminium panels from the hobs.
2. Apply a stripe of silicone to the gap between the two ceramic hob. Use only
the silicone supplied, as it is designed to tolerate the appliance’s high temper-
ature. (Fig. 1)
3. Splash a little soapy water (washing-up liquid) on the silicone stripe
4. Press the rubber block hard against the ceramic hob and pull it slowly from
back to front (Fig. 2)
5. Leave the silicone to harden until the next day.
6. Remove surplus silicone coating from the ceramic hob with the razorblade

along the joint, never across it.
