UNDERCOUNTER OVEN INSTALLATION:
•
If an oven (which must be of our manufacture) is to be installed under the
hob, ensure it is equipped with a cooling system and observe the distances
given in the figure to the side.
•
There must be nothing between the cooktop and the oven (cross rails,
panels, brackets, etc.).
ADJUSTMENT TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS
If a different type of gas to that specified on the dataplate and on the orange sticker on the back of the hob is used, the
injectors must be replaced.
Remove the orange sticker and keep it with the instructions booklet.
Use pressure regulators suitable for the gas pressure indicated in the Product Description Sheet.
•
The injectors must be changed by the After-Sales Service or a qualified technician.
•
Nozzles not supplied with the appliance must be ordered from After Sales Service.
•
Adjust the minimum setting of the taps.
Note: when liquid petroleum gas is used (G30/G31), the minimum gas setting screw must be tightened as far as
it will go.
Should you experience difficulty in turning the burners knobs, please contact the After Sales Service for the
replacement of the burner tap if found to be faulty.
REPLACING THE INJECTORS
(see the injector table in the Product
Description Sheet)
•
Remove grids
(A)
.
•
Extract burners
(B)
.
•
Using a socket spanner of the appropriate size unscrew the injector
(C)
.
•
Replace it with one suitable for the new type of gas.
Before installing the hob, remember to affix the gas calibration plate
supplied with the injectors in such a way that it covers the existing
information relating to gas calibration.
ADJUSTING MINIMUM GAS SETTING OF TAPS
To ensure that the minimum setting is correctly adjusted, remove the knob
and proceed as follows:
•
tighten the screw to reduce the height of the flame (-)
•
undo the screw to increase the height of the flame (+)
The minimum flame adjustment must be performed with the tap in the
minimum position (small flame).
•
The primary air of the burners does not need to be adjusted.
•
At this stage, light up the burners and turn the knobs from max position
to minimum position to check flame stability.
After adjusting, restore the seals with sealing wax or equivalent material.
WARNING
This operation must be performed by a qualified technician.

Care and maintenance
Clean the hob after each use in order to avoid damaging the surface and to prevent the formation of baked-on deposits
which are difficult to remove. Before cleaning, make sure the cooking zones are switched off and that the residual heat
indicator (“H”) is not displayed.
NOTE: Periodically check for dust under the appliance, near the cooling air inlet or the outlet openings. This
could hinder the ventilation and cooling of the electronic module and decrease the effectiveness of the hob.
To clean the hob, proceed as follows:
1.
use a soft clean cloth, absorbent kitchen wipes or a proprietary cleaner for glass ceramic hobs. Do not use abrasive
sponges and/or metal scouring pads.
2.
Food spills should be cleaned off before they bake onto the glass ceramic surface. Sugar and foods with a high sugar
content damage the glass ceramic surface and must be immediately removed using a scraper for glass. Glass
scrapers must be handled with care.
3.
Remove any stubborn food residues with a scraper or proprietary detergents.
4.
Salt, sugar and sand can scratch the glass ceramic hob: clean up any such spills on the hob immediately.
CLEANING THE HOB PARTS
•
Grids, burner caps and burners can be removed to be cleaned.
•
Clean them by hand with warm water and non-abrasive detergent, removing any food residues and checking that
none of the burner openings is clogged.
•
Rinse and dry
•
Refit burners and burner caps correctly in the respective housings.
•
When replacing the grids, make sure that the panstand area is aligned with the burner and that the burner feet are
fitted in the respective housings on the hob surface.
•
Models equipped with electrical ignition plugs and safety device require thorough cleaning of the plug end in order
to ensure correct operation. Check these items frequently, and if necessary, clean them with a damp cloth.
Any baked-on food should be removed with a toothpick or needle.
Note: to avoid damaging the electric ignition device, do not use it when the burners are not in their housing.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE (GAS BURNERS)
