Do not put cookware with an uneven base on the pan
support.
Never heat empty cookware.
Always place the cookware on the pan support
provided. Cookware must not be placed directly on the
burner.
Do not use roasters, pans or stone grills that are so
large that they cover several burners. The resulting
heat accumulation can damage the cooktop.
Ensure that the burner parts and pan supports are
positioned correctly.
Do not switch the gas cooktop on until all burner parts
are correctly assembled.
Ensure that the burner flame does not protrude from
under the base of the cookware and rise up the outside
of the pot.
Do not keep any highly flammable objects near the
cooktop.
For maximum performance with minimum gas
consumption, we recommend that you:
use cookware with a base that covers the flame
entirely so that this does not burn beyond the base;
use suitable pans on each gas burner;
position the cookware centrally on the gas hob;
set the gas burner to the lowest power level (small
flame) once the pan contents are simmering;
adjust the power level of the cooktop extractor to the
power level of the gas cooktop.
Using the gas cooktop with a cooktop extractor
If the gas cooktop is used together with a cooktop
extractor, the airflow of the extractor can affect the gas
flame.
Avoid using a high power level on the cooktop
extractor when the gas cooktop is set to a low power
level.
If necessary, reduce the power level on the cooktop
extractor when you turn on the gas cooktop.
Do not use the gas cooktop without cookware. The
gas flame is protected from the airflow of the cooktop
extractor by the geometry of the pan supports and the
cookware.
If necessary, reduce the power level on the cooktop
extractor to improve heat input or distribution.
INFO Flames can set fire to or damage the grease filter
in the cooktop extractor and the air-channelling
components. Never flambé food when using a
cooktop extractor.
INFO The performance characteristics of the gas
cooktop (e.g. heating times, efficiency, etc.) are
affected by the cooktop extractor.
The cooktop extractor also affects the heat input
and distribution.
INFO If you smell gas or have problems with the gas
installation, switch off the gas supply. Open the
window and ensure good ventilation.
Operating instructions:
The use of a gas cooktop results in the formation of heat
and moisture in the area where it is installed. Intensive
use of the appliance for a long time may require the use
of additional ventilation, e.g. opening a window or more
effective ventilation, e.g. operation of the mechanical
ventilation device at a higher power level.
Ensure sufficient ventilation.
Keep natural ventilation openings open.
Use a mechanical ventilation device if possible.
INFO Only use cookware with a diameter that is within
the recommended dimensions (see ‘suitable
cookware’ in the Appliance description chapter).
If the diameter is too large, the hot gases and
flames flowing outwards from under the base may
damage the worktop or any non-heat-resistant
surfaces, e.g. walls with panelling, as well as parts
of the cooktop and the cooktop extractor. BORA
shall not be held liable for any such damage.
INFO Do not use the gas cooktop without cookware
for extended periods of time (>5 min) with the
cooktop extractor switched on. This results in
very high temperatures and may damage the gas
cooktop and air-channelling components of the
cooktop extractor.
INFO The tips of the flames should remain under
the base of the pot. Protruding flame tips emit
heat into the air unnecessarily and can damage
pan handles and air-channelling components
(cooktop extractor) and increase the risk of burns.
Furthermore, the outer part of the gas flame is
much hotter than the core.
INFO Protect your hands when the appliance is hot
by using oven gloves or pot holders. Only use
dry gloves or pot holders. Wet or damp fabrics
conduct heat more easily and can cause steam
burns. Ensure that these fabrics do not get too
close to the flames. Do not use oversized pot
holders, tea towels or similar.
INFO Grease splashes and other flammable (food)
residues on the cooktop can catch fire. Remove
them as soon as possible.
