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.
XX
Avoid using a high power level on the cooktop extractor when
the gas cooktop is set to a low power level.
XX
If necessary, reduce the power level on the cooktop extractor
when you turn on the gas cooktop.
XX
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.
XX
If necessary, reduce the power level on the cooktop extractor
to improve heat input or distribution.
i
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.
i
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.
i
In recirculation mode the recirculated air affects the gas
cooktop. If the gas flame goes out, is excessively affected
by the extractor and/or the flame is not as it should be
(e.g. soot production, flame blowback, etc.), the return
flow aperture must be enlarged.
5.2 Touch control
i
The system recognises 3 different touch commands. It
differentiates between brief touches (tap), longer contact
(long press) and vertical swiping movements with your
finger (swipe).
Touch command applicable to Time (contact)
Tap (touch briefly) Buttons + slider 0.065 – 0.95 s
Long press (hold down) Buttons + slider 1 – 8 s
Swipe (vertical movement) Slider 0.15 – 8 s
Tab. 5.1 Touch control
If touch commands do not work or are not working
properly, the following should be taken into account:
XX
Tap the touch zones with only one finger.
XX
Ensure that no other parts of your hand are touching the
operating panel when using the controls.
XX
Keep the contact area as small as possible when using the
touch zones.
XX
Make sure that your fingers are clean and dry before using the
touch controls.
i
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.
i
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.
i
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.
i
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.
i
Grease splashes and other flammable (food) residues
on the cooktop can catch fire. Remove them as soon as
possible.
XX
Do not put cookware with an uneven base on the pan support.
XX
Never heat empty cookware.
XX
Always place the cookware on the pan support provided.
Cookware must not be placed directly on the burner.
XX
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.
XX
Ensure that the burner parts and pan supports are positioned
correctly.
XX
Do not switch the gas cooktop on until all burner parts are
correctly assembled.
XX
Ensure that the burner flame does not protrude from under
the base of the cookware and rise up the outside of the pot.
XX
Do not keep any highly flammable objects near the cooktop.
For maximum performance with minimum gas
consumption, we recommend that you:
XX
use cookware with a base that covers the flame entirely so
that this does not burn beyond the base;
XX
use suitable pans on each gas burner;
XX
position the cookware centrally on the gas hob;
XX
set the gas burner to the lowest power level (small flame)
once the pan contents are simmering;
XX
adjust the power level of the cooktop extractor to the power
level of the gas cooktop.
