SOME SAFETY POINT
Do not use the appliance as a space heater.
If you smell gas
Open a window. Do not use any electrical switches.
Immediately extinguish naked flames. Isolate appliance from
gas mains supplies via the isolation stopcock. Contact local
gas authority or emergency services as appropriate. In the
event of food fire. Isolate appliance from electric / gas mains
supplies if safe to do so. Try to extinguish flames with the
appropriate equipment (fire blanket or extinguishing foam).
Do not use water on cooking fat / oil fires.
If in difficulty call emergency services.
• Do not store or use flammable products or aerosol containers
near the hotplate or burners.
• Never flambe‚ under an extractor - even if the ventilator is
switched off.
The high flames can cause fire.
For your safety and that of your children
• Do not store items that are attractive to children above or near
the appliance.
• Keep children well away from the appliance:
do not forget that some parts of the appliance or of the pans
become very hot and dangerous during use, and will take time
to cool down.
• When cooking, do not use clothes that could catch fire and
cause serious injury.
• Some “Wok” cooking pots are unstable. Check with the
manufacturer before purchasing.
• Avoid using unstable and misshapen pans which may tilt easily
and pans with a very small base diameter, e.g. milk pans, single
egg poachers. The minimum pan diameter recommended is
125mm (5"). Smaller pans will be unstable.
Very large pans may cause walls or knobs to overheat. Using
pans which are too big may deform the control knobs or discolour
the walls. This is not covered by the guarantee.
• Carefully place all pans centrally over the burners.
• Always position pan handles safely away from the front of the
hotplate and out of danger, particularly from small children.
• Never leave a chip pan unattended.
• Pans and kettles with down turned base rims should not be
used.
• Simmering aids such as asbestos or mesh mats are NOT
recommended. They will reduce burner performance and could
damage the pan supports.
• Commercially available foil spillage aids are unnecessary on
this hotplate.
PROBLEM SOLVER
Any of the following are considered to be abnormal operation
and may require servicing:
Yellow tipping of the hob burner flame.
Sooting up of cooking utensils.
Burners not igniting properly.
Burners failing to remain alight.
Burners extinguished by oven door.
Gas valves, which are difficult to turn.
Your Installer should be contacted if you have any problems with
the installation.
Before you call a service engineer please check if the problem
is something you could fix yourself. The cause of the problem is
often a simple one.
THINGS TO TRY BEFORE CALLING FOR AN ENGINEER
Burner does not burn well
Is the burner dirty or damp? Try cleaning and/or drying the burner.
Appliance not suitable for your gas type? Check the identification
plate on the hotplate base.
Burner does not ignite
Do the burners spark when you press the ignition button? If not
is the power on? See ‘Checking the power supply’ section further
on. If the power supply is OK then there is probably something
wrong with the ignition system.
Are the electrode or burner slots blocked by debris?
Is the burner dirty or damp? Try cleaning and/or drying the burner.
Is the burner trim correctly located?
Are the burner caps correctly located?
Check that there is not a problem with your gas supply. You can
do this by making sure that other gas appliances you may have
are working.
Pan supports
Aluminium pans may cause a metallic marking on the pan supports
which does not affect the durability of the enamel and may be
cleaned off with a metal cleaner such as ‘Brasso’.
Checking the power supply
First check the socket by trying out another piece of electrical
equipment in it.
If that works, renew the fuse in the hotplate plug. Use a 10 amp
fuse. If the fuse ‘blows’ again there is a fault on the hotplate. Do
not use a fuse with a higher rating. Do not carry out other electrical
work. Unplug the hotplate and tell your installer.
Power Failure
In the event of a failure in the electrical supply the hotplate burners
may be lit using a match.
Ventilation
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of
heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that
the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open
or install a mechanical ventilation device, (mechanical extractor
hood). Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for
additional ventilation, for example opening a window, or more
effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical
ventilation where present. For more detail see the Installation
Instructions.
