This document is a user manual for a gas hob, providing instructions for installation, safe operation, maintenance, and technical specifications.
The device is a gas hob designed for cooking food in ordinary homes. It features multiple burners of varying sizes, including small auxiliary, medium semi-rapid, large rapid, and triple flame burners, to accommodate different cooking needs. The hob is equipped with control knobs to regulate gas flow and an integrated lighting system for igniting the burners. A safety valve, activated by a thermocouple, is incorporated to cut off gas flow if the flame goes out, enhancing user safety.
The hob is designed for installation in fitted kitchen units up to 600mm deep. The installation opening dimensions are 550 x 470 mm or 750 x 470 mm, depending on the model.
Burner Output and Nozzle Sizes: The manual provides detailed specifications for different gas types (G20, G30 at 28-30mbar, G30 at 50mbar).
Gas Intake Connection: G1/2" Electricity Supply: 220-240V~50/60Hz. The appliance is designed for 230V single-phase operation.
The hob complies with several EEC Directives, including 73/23 and 90/683 (Low Voltage), 89/336 (Electromagnetic Compatibility), 90/396 (Gas Appliances), and 93/68 (General Standards).
The hob is operated via control knobs, each marked with symbols indicating "no gas flow," "maximum gas flow," and "minimum gas flow." All operating positions must be set between the maximum and minimum flow settings. For versions with integrated lighting, pushing the knob down and turning it anticlockwise to the "maximum flow" symbol ignites the burner. After ignition, the knob must be held for about 10 seconds to heat the thermocouple and activate the safety valve. The flame can then be adjusted. In case of a power cut, burners can be lit manually with a flame. To turn off a burner, the control knob is turned clockwise to the "closed" symbol.
For optimal efficiency and lower gas consumption, users are advised to use flat-bottomed pans with dimensions suitable for the burners:
It is recommended to turn down the flame once liquids boil. Caution is advised when cooking with fats or oils due to fire risks at high temperatures.
The manual also covers adapting the hob to different gas types by changing nozzles and adjusting the minimum flame level. This involves removing burner caps, unscrewing nozzles with a size 7 socket wrench, replacing them with appropriate ones, and then reassembling. The minimum flame level is set by turning a by-pass pin with a thin straight screwdriver, ensuring a small, homogeneous flame.
Regular cleaning and maintenance are crucial for the hob's longevity and safety. Before any cleaning, the appliance must be disconnected from the electrical mains and allowed to cool.
