The Gas Top Burners
The hob has four gas burners:
front left - ultra rapid (wok) burner - rated at 12,000
Btu’s
rear left - semi-rapid burner - rated at 6,150 Btu’s
rear right - rapid burner - rated at 10,600 Btu’s
front right - semi-rapid burner - rated at 6,150 Btu’s
The semi-rapid burner is especially suited for use with
small pans and gentle simmering or poaching.
All burners have a set simmer position and are easily
adjustable.
TO USE THE HOB
To light a hob burner: push in and turn the control knob
anti-clockwise to the large flame symbol, and hold in
for 3 seconds until the burner lights, then turn the knob
to the required setting.
If the burner flame should accidentally go out, turn off the
burner control and do not attempt to re-light the burner for
at least one minute.
The control may be set towards a lower position, simply
by turning the control knob towards the small flame
symbol.
IMPORTANT: The cast iron pan grates on the appliance
are much heavier than those on most gas top ranges,
therefore care must be taken when removing or re-fitting
them to the gas top. It is important that they are lifted from
the appliance and not dragged across nearby enamelled
parts which would result in damaging the enamel.
SOME SAFETY POINTS
l Simmering aids such as mesh mats are not
recommended. They can impede burner performance,
damage the pan supports and waste fuel.
l Commercially available foil spillage aids are
unnecessary on this cooker and could effect the
combustion.
l Some ‘wok’ cooking pans are unstable. Check with
the ‘wok’ manufacturer before purchasing.
l Do not use unstable and mis-shapen pans (e.g. with
convex bases) that tilt easily.
l Pans and kettles with concave bases should not be
used.
l The minimum pan diameter recommended is 5”
(12cm), maximum recommended pan diameter is 11”
(28cm).
l Place all pans centrally over the burners. The flames
must be on the base of the pan. Do not allow the
flames to go up the sides of the pan. (See Fig. 1).
l Always position pan handles away from the front of
the range - out of reach of small children.
lNEVER leave a chip pan unattended.
NOTE
Aluminium pans may cause a metallic marking on the pan
supports. This will not affect the durability of the enamel.
The appliance warranty does not cover mis-use of the
pan supports.
