All the appliance's control and monitoring devices are located together on the front panel. The burner controlled by each knob is shown next to the knob. The appliance is equipped with an electronic ignition device. Simply press the knob and turn it anticlockwise to the maximum flame symbol, until the burner ignites. If the burner does not light in the first 15 seconds, turn the knob to and wait 60 seconds before trying again. After lighting, keep the knob pressed in for a few seconds to allow the thermocouple to heat up. The burner may go out when the knob is released: In this case, the thermocouple has not heated up sufficiently. Wait a few moments and repeat the operation. Keep the knob pressed in longer.
In case of an accidental switching off, a safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas cock is open. Return the knob to and wait at least 60 seconds before lighting it again.
Correct positioning of the flame-spreader crowns and burner caps
Before lighting the hob burners, make sure that the flame-spreader crowns are correctly positioned in their housings with their respective burner caps. Make sure that the holes in the burners are aligned with the igniters and thermocouples.
Also ensure that the flame-spreader crowns are correctly engaged in the burner holes.
Correct positioning of the grids
The grids over the burners must be positioned in parallel to the control panel, not perpendicular.
Each type of burner must be associated with its own grid.
Use the igniter and thermocouple indentations as a reference in order to correctly position the grid on the burner.
For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption, use pans with lids and of suitable size for the burner, so that the flames do not reach up the sides of the pan. Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to ensure that the liquid does not boil over.
Cookware diameters:
To prevent burns or damage to the hob or the counter top during cooking, all pans or griddles must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob.
A few precautions are necessary if you wish to use a griddle:
Improper use Risk of damage to surfaces
|
To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use.
Let them cool first.
Ordinary daily cleaning
Always use only specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
Pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.
Food stains or residues
Do not use steel sponges and sharp scrapers as they will damage the surface.
Use normal, non-abrasive products and a wooden or plastic tool, if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.
Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set inside the oven. If left to set for too long, they might damage the enamel lining of the oven.
Cooking hob grids
Remove the grids and clean them in lukewarm water and non-abrasive detergent. Make sure to remove any encrustations. Dry them thoroughly and return them to the hob.
The continuous contact between the grids and the flame can cause modifications to the enamel over time in those parts exposed to heat. This is a completely natural phenomenon which has no effect on the operation of this component.
Igniters and thermocouples
For correct operation the igniters and thermocouples must always be perfectly clean. Check them frequently and clean them with a damp cloth if necessary. Remove any dry residues with a wooden toothpick or a needle.
Flame-spreader crowns and burner caps
For easier cleaning, the flame-spreader crowns and the burner caps can be removed. Wash them in hot water and nonabrasive detergent. Carefully remove any encrustation, then wait until they are perfectly dry.
In case of a malfunction, make sure that the holes of the outer crown are perfectly clean.
Refit the flame-spreader crowns making sure that they are correctly positioned in their housings with their respective burner caps.
Heat production during appliance operation Risk of fire
|
Veneers, adhesives or plastic coatings on adjacent furniture should be temperatureresistant (>90°C), otherwise they might warp over time.
The minimum clearance between a ventilation hood and the cooking surface must be at least the distance indicated in the ventilation hood installation instructions.
The minimum clearances must also be respected for the edges of the hob on the back as indicated in the mounting illustrations.
The following operation requires building and/or carpentry work and must therefore be carried out by a competent tradesman.
Installation can be carried out on various materials such as masonry, metal, solid wood or plastic laminated wood as long as they are heat resistant (>90°C).
Create an opening with the dimensions shown in the figure in the countertop of the piece of furniture.
L (mm) | X (mm) | Y (mm) |
600 | 560 - 564 | 482 - 486 |
750 | 700 ÷ 704 | 482 - 486 |
1000 | 880 - 884 | 482 - 486 |
A (mm) | B (mm) | C (mm) | D (mm) | E (mm) |
min 200 | min 460 | min 750 | 40 - 60 | min 50 |
Over built-in oven unit
The clearance between the hob and the kitchen furniture or other installed appliances must be enough to ensure sufficient ventilation and air discharge.
If installed above an oven, a space must be left between the bottom of the hob and the top of the appliance installed below.
If installed on top of an oven, the latter must be equipped with a cooling fan.
Over empty kitchen unit or drawers
If there are other pieces of furniture (lateral walls, drawers, etc.), dishwashers or fridges under the hob, a double-layer wooden base must be installed at least 20 mm from the bottom of the hob to avoid any accidental contact. It must only be possible to remove the double-layer base using suitable equipment.
Failure to install the double-layer wooden base exposes the user to possible accidental contact with sharp or hot parts.
Fixing brackets
Screw the fixing brackets (A) into the holes on the sides of the bottom casing to properly fasten the hob to the structure.
Do not use silicone to secure the hob. This would make it impossible to remove the hob, if necessary, without damaging it.
Hob Seal
With glass hob
To prevent leakage of liquid between the frame of the hob and the countertop, place the adhesive seal provided along the entire outer edge of the hob before assembly.
With steel hob
To prevent leakage of liquid between the frame of the hob and the work surface, put the insulating seal provided in position before assembly.
