If your cooktop is not fitted with this automatic lighting

feature, use a lighter or a match to light the burner.

Your cooktop may be equipped with safety thermocouples

to prevent gas flow if the burners are accidentally extinguished. Figure 2.

To turn on and activate this innovative system, proceed in the same way, but keeping the control knob pressed down until ignition takes place, the flame appears and does not extinguish.

If ignition does not take place, repeat the procedure, keeping the control knob pressed down 1-5 seconds.

To turn it off, turn the control knob to the right to the correct position . When carrying out this procedure, the ignition system may activate again. This is completely normal.

Your modern, functional cooktop has progressive gas valves that make it possible to adjust to the necessary setting between the maximum and minimum flames.

The large double flame burner is very practical and convenient for cooking with "paella" pans, Chinese woks (all sorts of Asian dishes), etc.

If your cooktop is equipped with a large double flame burner, it will have a valve facilitating independent control of the interior and exterior flame. This revolutionary system makes it possible to select from a wide array of power settings. Working description Fig. 3.

The use of the appliance produces heat and humidity in the site where it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen has good ventilation. Keep ventilation channels open or install a mechanical ventilation system (extraction hood).

Prolonged use of the appliance with several or all cooking units may require additional ventilation, such as opening a window (without causing air currents) or increasing the power of mechanical ventilation if it exists.

Semi-rapid Steamed potatoes, fresh vegetables and pasta.

Auxiliary Cooking: casseroles, rice pudding and caramel.

Reheating and keeping food warm: pre-cooked meals, preparing delicate casseroles.

Do not use small pots on large burners. The flame should not touch the sides of the pot.

Do not cook without a lid, or if the lid moves, as this causes a partial energy loss.

Do not use pots with irregular bottoms as they lengthen cooking time and increase energy consumption.

Do not place the pot off-center over the burner, as tipping could result.

Do not use large-diameter pots on the burners near

the control knobs, which, once centered over the burner, could touch the knobs or be close enough to them that the temperature of that area in- creases, possibly causing damage.

Never place pots

directly on top of the burners.

Do not use excessive weights or strike the cooktop with heavy objects.

Never use two burners or heat sources to heat a single pot.

Avoid using roasting grilles, earthen pots, etc. for extended periods at maximum power.

Always use appropriate pots for each burner.

This will prevent excessive consumption of gas and staining of the pots.

Always use the lid.

Use only pots, pans and casseroles with flat, thick bottoms.

Center the pot over the burner.

Place the pot over the grate.

Make sure that the grates and burner covers

are in the correct positions before using the appliance.

Handle pots carefully when they are on the cooktop.

DO NOT

Do not use washing powder, oven-cleaning sprays or scourers that might scratch the glass.

Never use sharp objects such as metal scourers or knives to remove the hardened remains of food from the surface.

Never use a knife, scraper or similar device to clean the area where the glass meets the trim of the burners or the decorative metal frame.

Do not slide pans over the glass because they could scratch it. In addition, try not to drop heavy or sharp objects on the glass. Never strike any part of the cooking hob.

Grains of sand that may come from cleaning fruits and vegetables will scratch the glass surface.

DO

After each use, clean the surface of the respective burner parts once they are cold. If any bits

are left (overcooked food,

drops of grease etc.), however few they will become

stuck to the surface and more difficult to remove later.

To keep the burners and pan supports clean, you must clean them periodically by placing them in soapy weather and brushing and with a non- metallic brush to ensure that the holes and grooves are perfectly clean, and can provide a perfect flame. Always dry the burner covers and the pan supports if they have become wet.

Use a glass scraper, and always lay it flat to the glass, taking special care not to get it too near to the trim on the gas burners.

After finishing cleaning, dry all the burner parts together w ith their casing. T he ring and the burner cap must be inserted

w hen placing them on the burner casing.

M oisture and the incorrect positioning of the respective burner parts w ill affect the uniformity of the flame

generated.

1 - Ne permettez pas que des flammes d??passent le bord de l'ustensile de cuisine.

Cette instruction est fond??e sur des consid??rations de s??curit??.

2 - N'oubliez pas que l'appareil chauffe lorsqu'il est en fonctionnement. Le sens commun est important. L'extinction des flammes ne signifie par que les pi??ces ne sont plus chaudes.

3 - Pour des raisons de s??curit??, cet appareil ne doit pas ??tre destin?? ?? chauffer une pi??ce.

4 - Assurez-vous de d??connecter l'alimentation ??lectrique avant de d??monter l'appareil.

5 - Maintenez la zone de l'appareil propre et libre de mati??res combustibles, par exemple essence, autres vapeurs et liquides inflammables.

6 - N'obstruez pas le flux d'air de combustion et de ventilation.

???Si un br??leur s'??teint et que du gaz s'??chappe, ouvrir les portes et les fen??tres. Attendre que le gaz dissipe avant d'utiliser la cuisini??re.

???S'il y a une odeur de gaz, l'installateur n'a pas bien v??rifi?? les fuites a gaz. Si les joints ne sont pas parfaitement ??tanches, il peut y avo- ir une petite fuite de gaz, et de l??, une l??g??re odeur. Trouver une fuite de gaz n'est pas une proc??dure ?? faire soi-m??me. Certaines fuites ne peuvent ??tre trouv??es qu en pla??ant le con- tr??le du br??leur en position ON et ceci doit ??tre accompli par un technicien en entretien et r??paration qualifi??. Voir Avertissement, page 24.

7 - Il faut conserver une distance minimum de 762 mm (30???) entre la table de cuisson ?? gaz et les armoires plac??es sur la partie sup??rieure.

8 - Le r??gulateur de pression de gaz fourni avec l'appareil doit ??tre install?? sur la ligne des tuyaux de gaz.

9 - L'appareil et sa soupape d'arr??t individuelle doivent ??tre d??connect??s du circuit d'alimentation en gaz pendant la r??alisation

d'un test de mise en pression du syst??me ?? des pressions d'essai exc??dant

3,5 kPa (1/2 psig).

L'appareil doit ??tre isol?? du circuit d'alimentation en gaz par fermeture de son robinet d'arr??t manuel individuel pendant la r??alisation d'un test de pression du circuit

d'alimentation de gaz ?? des pressions d'essai ??quivalentes ou inf??rieures ?? 3,5 kPa(1/2 psig)

10 - Important : quand un r??cipient tr??s grand est utilis??, laissez un espace minimum de 50 mm (2???) pour ??viter d'endommager la surface du plan de travail de la table de cuisson en bois, plastique ou dans d'autres mat??riaux ne r??sistant pas ?? la chaleur. Surveillez en permanence l'huile ou la graisse chaude.

11 - Veiller ?? ne pas laisser de l'huile ou de la graisse sans surveillance.

??? Toujours allumer la hotte lorsque vous cuisi- nez ?? temp??rature ??lev??e ou que vous faites flamber de la nourriture (p.ex. des cr??pes Suzette, des cerises jubil??es, du boeuf au poivre flamb??).

??? Utiliser une temp??rature ??lev??e sur la plaque de cuisson seulement lorsque n??cessaire. Afin d'??viter les d??bordements et les ??claboussures, chauffer l'huile lentement ?? feu pas plus ??lev?? que moyen. L' huile chaude peut causer des br??lures et des blessures graves.

??? Ne jamais d??placer une casserole d'huile chaude, surtout une friteuse. Attendre qu'elle soit refroidie.

12 - Ne pas nettoyer la cuisini??re alors qu'elle est encore chaude. Certains produits

nettoyants produisent des vapeurs nocives lorsqu'ils sont appliqu??s sur une surface chaude. Les linges ou ??ponges mouill??s peuvent causer des br??lures par la vapeur.

Apr??s un renversement ou un d??bordement, ??teindre le br??leur et laisser refroidir la plaque de cuisson. Nettoyer autour du br??- leur et des orifices de combustion. Apr??s le nettoyage, v??rifier le bon fonctionnement.

Utiliser une dimension appropri??e de casserole. L'utilisation d 'un ustensile de cuisson trop petit expose une partie de

l '??l??ment chauffant ou du br??leur au contact direct et l'ignition des v??tements peut en r??sulter. Choisir un ustensile de cuisson au fond plat et assez grand pour couvir la surface de l'el??ment chauffant. Cette cuisi- ni??re est munie d '??l??ments chauffants de diff??rentes dimensions. Adapter la dimen- sion de l'ustensile de cuisson ?? la dimension de l'??l??ment chauffant ou du br??leur aug- mentera auss l'efficacit??.
