This document provides comprehensive information for the use, maintenance, and troubleshooting of a Siemens built-in gas hob, specifically models ER6A.PB70. and ER7A.RB70. It emphasizes safety, environmental protection, and efficient operation.
The gas hob is designed for domestic cooking, featuring multiple burners with varying power outputs to accommodate different cooking needs. The ER6A.PB70. model includes an economy burner, standard-output burners, and a high-output burner. The ER7A.RB70. model, in addition to standard burners, features a dual-wok multi-crown burner, which allows for independent regulation of the inner and outer flames, offering greater flexibility for high-heat cooking. Each burner is equipped with a pan support, a control knob, a burner cover, a burner cup, a burner cup base, a thermocouple for flame monitoring, and an ignition plug.
The primary function of the gas hob is to provide a controlled heat source for cooking using natural or liquefied gas. The appliance features automatic ignition for all burners, simplifying the start-up process. Users ignite a burner by pressing and turning the control knob anti-clockwise to the highest power level, keeping it pressed for a few seconds until the flame ignites. A safety system, incorporating a thermocouple, automatically interrupts the gas flow if a burner flame accidentally extinguishes, preventing gas leaks. In the event of a power cut, burners can be manually ignited using a lighter or match.
The control knobs allow for incremental adjustment of flame height across nine power levels, from the lowest (level 1) to the highest (level 9), enabling precise temperature control for various cooking tasks. The dual-wok multi-crown burner, available on specific models, offers enhanced control by allowing separate adjustment of its inner and outer flames, making it suitable for specialized cooking techniques that require intense, concentrated heat.
Efficient and safe use of the gas hob is a key focus of the manual. Users are advised to select cookware with a suitable diameter that matches the burner size to maximize energy efficiency and prevent flames from touching the sides of the cookware. Centering cookware on the hob and using lids during cooking are also recommended to save energy. The manual provides a table of recommended power settings and cooking times for various meals, from boiling water and deep-fat frying to stewing and defrosting, guiding users on optimal usage.
Accessories such as an additional wok grid and an espresso maker grid are available to enhance the hob's versatility. The wok grid is specifically designed for use with the multi-crown burner and cookware with a rounded base, while the espresso maker grid is for smaller cookware on the lowest power setting burner. A simmer plate is also available for low-heat cooking, suitable for economy or standard-output burners.
Safety is paramount, with warnings against leaving hot oil or fat unattended, using hob covers, or placing flammable objects near the appliance. Users are instructed to ensure adequate ventilation in the kitchen, especially during intensive or prolonged use of the gas appliance, to prevent the build-up of heat, moisture, and combustion products.
Regular cleaning and servicing are essential for maintaining the appliance's efficiency and extending its lifespan. The manual provides detailed instructions for cleaning the hob's surfaces, burners, and pan supports. It emphasizes allowing the appliance to cool down before cleaning and using non-abrasive cleaning products.
For the burners, it is crucial to clean their surfaces after each use to prevent food remains from burning on. The burner parts should be cleaned with a non-metallic brush and soapy water, then completely dried before re-inserting them. The ignition plugs also require regular cleaning with a small, non-metallic brush to ensure proper ignition. The manual explicitly states that burner parts should not be cleaned in a dishwasher to avoid damage.
Pan supports can be cleaned with a non-metallic brush and soapy water, or, alternatively, in a dishwasher using recommended cleaning agents. It is important to completely dry the pan supports before re-inserting them to prevent damage to the enamel. The manual also advises against removing the control knobs during cleaning to prevent humidity from damaging the appliance's interior.
Troubleshooting information is provided to help users identify and resolve minor faults, such as issues with automatic ignition, uneven burner flames, or gas supply problems. For more complex issues or repairs, users are strongly advised to contact trained specialist staff and use genuine spare parts to ensure safety and proper functioning of the appliance.
