CLEANING

IMPORTANT: Always disconnect the appliance from the gas and electricity mains before carrying out any cleaning operation.

2) COOKTOP

Periodically wash the cooktop, the pan stand support, the enamelled burner caps “C” and the burner heads “M” (see fig. 3) with lukewarm soapy water. Following this, all parts should be thoroughly rinsed and dried. Never wash them while they are still warm and never use abrasive powders.

Do not allow vinegar, coffee, milk, salted water, lemon or tomato juice from remaining in contact with the surfaces for long periods of time.

WARNINGS: Comply with the following instructions, before remounting the parts:

• Check that burner head slots “M” (fig. 3) have not become clogged by foreign bodies.
• Check that the enamelled burner cap “C” (fig. 3) has been correctly positioned on the burner head. It must be steady.
• Do not force the taps if they are difficult to open or close. Contact an Authorised Service Centre for repairs.
• Don’t use steam jets for cleaning the cooktop.

If you wish to maintain the shine of the ceramic surface, treat the glass with a silicon-based film product before use to protect the surface against water and dirt. This protective film is not durable, so it is advisable to repeat the application of the product frequently.

It is very important to clean the hob every time you use it, while the glass is still warm.

Do not clean using abrasive metal scourers, powder abrasives or corrosive sprays.

Depending on the degree of dirt, we recommend:

- for light stains, a damp sponge is sufficient.

- Tough, encrusted dirt is easily eliminated using a scraper (fig. 3/A), not supplied with the hob, but easy to find in local stores. Use the scraper carefully to avoid damaging the hob.

- Traces of liquid spilled from pans can be eliminated with vinegar or lemon juice.

- Never allow sugar or sugary foods to fall on the hob while cooking. Should this occur, switch off the hob and clean it immediately with hot water, using a scraper on hot spills.

- As time goes by metallic reflections, colouring or scratches may appear due to poor cleaning and the incorrect movement of pans. Scratches are hard to eliminate but do not affect the correct operation of your hob.

- Do not use jets of steam to clean the appliance.

Note: continuous use could cause the burners to change colour due to the high temperature.

3) INSTALLING THE COOKTOP

Check that the appliance is in a good condition after having removed the outer packaging and internal wrappings from around the various loose parts. In case of doubt, do not use the appliance and contact qualified personnel.

Never leave the packaging materials (cardboard, bags, polystyrene foam, nails, etc.) within children’s reach since they could become potential sources of danger.

The measurements of the opening made in the top of the modular cabinet and into which the cooktop will be installed are indicated in either fig. 4. Always comply with the measurements given for the hole into which the appliance will be recessed (see fig. 4).

The appliance belongs to class 3 and is therefore subject to all the provisions established by the provisions governing such appliances.

Any adjoining wall surface situated within 200 mm from the edge of any hob burner must be a suitable non-combustible material for a height of 150 mm for the entire length of the hob. Any combustible construction above the top of the burner and no construction shall be within 450 mm above the top of the burner. A minimum depth of 70 mm from the top of the work surface must be provided for this appliance.

Caution: Do not allow the glass (A) lay directly on the work top. it is the bottomshelf (B) that has to be in touch with the work top (see fig. 4/A).

4) FIXING THE COOKTOP

The cooktop has a special seal which prevents liquid from getting into the cabinet. Strictly comply with the following instructions in order to correctly apply this seal:

- Take off all the movable parts of the hob.

- Cut the seal in 4 parts of the necessary lenght to positionning it on the 4 edges of the glass.

- Overturn the cooktop and correctly position seal “E” (fig. 5) under the edge of the cooktop itself, so that the outer side of the seal perfectly matches the outer edge of the cooktop. The ends of the strips must fit together without overlapping.

- Evenly and securely fix the seal to the cooktop, pressing into place with the fingers and remove the strip of protective paper from the seal and set the plate into the hole made in the cabinet.

- Position the hob in the hole in the unit and fasten it in place using the appropriate screws “F” and the fastening hooks “G” (fig. 6).

- When the appliance is installed so that the base can be touched, we recommend fitting a protecting shield. This shield must be at least 70 mm below the base of the bench top (fig. 4). Timber or other suitable material may be used provided it is capable of withstanding the appliance temperatures. Ensure that the supply connection point is accessible with the appliance installed. To facilitate shield may need to be removable.

NOTE: do not fix the cooktop into the bench with sealant (ie silicon) as this may void the warranty. Use only the seals provided.

IMPORTANT: a perfect installation, adjustment or transformation of the cook top to use other gases requires a QUALIFIED INSTALLER: a failure to follow this rule will void the warranty.

5) GAS CONNECTION

The gas connection is located in the rear and on the underside of the appliance 100 mm from the right hand side.

There are two ways to carry out the connection to the main gas line:

A. The cooktop can be connected with rigid pipe as specified in AS5601 table 3.1.

B. If installing with a hose assembly, install with a hose assembly that complies with AS/ANZ 1869 (AGA Approved), 10 mm ID, class B or D, no more than 1.2 m long and in accordance with AS5601.

Ensure that the hose does not contact the hot surfaces of the cooktop, oven, dishwasher or any other appliance that may be installed underneath or next to the cooktop. The hose should not be subjected to abrasion, kinking or permanent deformation and should be able to be inspected along its entire length with the cooktop in the installed position.

Unions compatible with the hose fittings must be used and all connections tested for gas leaks. The gas supply connection for the hose assembly must be accessible.

Warning: ensure that the hose assembly is restrained from accidental contact with the flue or flue outlet of an underbench oven.
