BEFORE FIRST USE
CONTROLS
Each burner is controlled by a control knob. The markings
on the control panel indicate which burner the knob
controls, and the setting for that burner (see Figure 3).
LIGHTING BURNERS
Electronic ignition: These cooktops are fitted with
mains powered ignition. When the appliance has been
connected and the power is on, depressing any knob will
release sparks to all burners.

Figure 3
Standard burner
Dual wok burner
Both rings of wok
burner operate in
this range of knob
rotation
Note that the dotted line section of
the graphics is the transition between
operating zones. It is recommended
not to leave the knob in this position
Only the inner
ring of the wok
burner operates
in this range of
knob rotation
NOTE! Gas controls turn anticlockwise from ‘OFF’ and
have limited movement.
CAUTION
• Keep hands clear of burners when lighting.
• If burner does not light within 5 seconds, turn knob
to ‘OFF’ position, allow gas to disperse, then try
lighting again.
• Burners MUST be operated between ‘HIGH’ and
‘LOW’ settings only. It is recommended not to operate
the dual wok burner in the area with dotted graphics.
To light a burner, the knob must be turned to the
or ‘HIGH’ position, then pushed down as far as
possible for approximately 5 seconds. If the flame goes out
when the knob is released simply depress the knob again,
this time holding it down with slightly more force for the
same length of time.
The height of the flame can be varied by turning the control
knob toward the ‘LOW’ position.
Note! When the wok burner is turned to low only the small
inner ring stays lit. This is a normal function of
the dual wok burner to provide a very low power
flame option.
In the absence of electrical power, carry out the ignition
directly to the burner with a hand held ignition source.
Choice of burner
For your convenience there is a choice of burners:
• A small burner for special low heat and
slow cooking.
• A medium burner for normal cooking and simmering
(one on the four burner models and two on the five
burner models).
• A large burner for fast heating and large pots
and pans.
• A wok burner for very fast heating using a wok or
large pot or pan. This wok burner is also a “dual”
burner and therefore results in a small low powered
flame when the burner is turned down. This is
achieved by only supplying gas to the inner ring of the
wok burner.
To conserve gas place the pan centrally over the burner
and adjust the flame so that it does not extend past the
edge of the pan (Figure 4). Do not boil food too rapidly.
A vigorous boil will not cook food any faster, and will
waste energy.
Pots and pans
All common pots and pans; aluminium, stainless steel,
cast iron, ceramic, etc., may be used on your new gas
cooktop. Ensure that the pots or pans are steady and have
flat bases to avoid dangerous spill-over of hot liquids and
wasted energy.
CAUTION
Never use asbestos mats, wire mats or grids,
or aluminium foil as it can lead to overheating,
cracked enamel or broken glass. The warranty will
be void if these items are used and cause a failure.
Woks should only be used on the wok burner and
wok support trivet (refer to Figure 3 on page 7).

CAUTION
Ensure the appliance is off and cool before cleaning.
Enamel (on burner skirts and trivets)
Persistent stains may require rubbing with a nylon scourer or creamed powder cleansers. Household enamel cleaners are
available, follow the manufacturer’s instructions in their use. Harsh abrasive cleaners, powder cleaners, steel wool
or wax polishes should not be used.
CAUTION
If the ceramic glass surface is cracked, switch off the appliance immediately to avoid the possibility of electric shock.
Trivets and burners
These can all be lifted off and removed for separate cleaning.
NOTE! When refitting the burners, ensure that they are correctly seated.
Ensure burners are thoroughly dried after cleaning or spillage. When cleaning the burners, ensure that all the flame ports
are free of any blockage (refer to Figure 1b on page 4). If necessary, use a toothpick or brush to clear ports. The outer
surface of the burner caps have a polished finish and extra care needs to be taken to avoid scratching this surface during
cleaning. In instances of heavy soiling, it may be necessary to apply a non-abrasive cleaning compound and rub with a
cloth until the soiling is removed and then finish with a soft, dry cloth.
NOTE! DO NOT place trivets or burners in the dishwasher.
Ignition spark plug and flame safeguard sensor
GENTLY clean the ignition spark plug and flame safeguard sensor with a damp cloth to avoid lighting difficulties.
Ensure that they are dry before use.
Injector
Ensure the injector remains free of any foreign material. When cleaning the burner spill bowl, first put tape over the injector
hole before wipe out the spill bowl to avoid to block the injector hole, then remove the tape after cleaning.
If necessary, use a thin piece of wire to clear the orifice.
CLEANING AND CARE
Do’s Don’ts
Use pots with a flat base.
Do not slide pots across the glass as this can results in
scratches to the surface
Clean when cold unless sugar spills which should be removed
with a ceramic scraper.
Do not clean when hot as it is dangerous and cleaning
products can burn and stain.
Clean after every use with a sponge and soapy water then dry.
Do not leave food residues or water on the ceramic as the
contamination can damage the ceramic and screening printed
graphics
Use a non-scratch scourer (usually blue in colour) if required.
Do not use steel wool or scourer pads that are not specified as
non-scratch (usually green in colour). Heavy duty scourers are
too abrasive
Difficult stains should be removed with a ceramic scraper and
cleaning cream specific for ceramic glass cooktops. Cerapol
Do not use general abrasive cleaners as these can cause
micro-scratches, dulling the glass surface and increasing the
likelihood of contamination embedding into the glass
At least once per week use ceramic sealer cream. Ceraseal
Do not use the ceramic top as a cutting board or work bench
as this will cause scratches.

OPERATION ON N.G./S.N.G
This appliance is supplied for use with Natural Gas.
However, it can be converted for use with LPG.
Refer to LP conversion on page 19.
Supply pipe sizing
The total hourly gas consumption for the appliance is
shown on the data label. The required supply pressure (i.e.
at inlet to appliance regulator) for each gas type is shown
on the data label, and given in Table 3 (page 18). Use this
information in conjunction with the length of run, number
of elbows, tees and bends, the available service pressure
and the supply requirements of other installed appliances
to determine a suitable pipe size. For assistance in this
matter refer to the appropriate section of AS/NZS 5601.1
or AS/NZS 5601.2.
An AGA certified class B or D flexible connection may
be used to connect the cooktop in accordance with
AS/NZS 5601.1, in particular section 5.9 and clause
6.10.1.8, or AS/NZS 5601.2, in particular section 2.11.
Where a hose assembly is used and the cooktop is in the
installed position, the hose assembly shall be suitable for
connection to a fixed consumer piping outlet located at
a point 800 – 850mm above the floor and in the region
outside the width of the appliance to a distance of 250mm.
The point of connection to consumer piping must be
accessible with appliance installed.
ELBOW POSITIONING
It is possible to reposition the elbow if required by
loosening the locking nut and elbow by using two
spanners. Re-tighten the entire assembly after the elbow
has been repositioned. When fitting elbow to appliance,
ensure that the sealing washer is fitted.
Note to Installer: Assembly of elbow to manifold at rear
of unit requires two spanners to secure locking nut and
ensure leak free connection. For this reason the elbow is
best secured onto cooktop manifold before installing unit
into benchtop.
Regulator
An appliance regulator is provided. The regulator must be
positioned so that the pressure test nipple is accessible
when the appliance is installed.
Connect the gas supply to the ½” B.S.P. internal thread
inlet of the regulator. Refer to ‘bench cutout’ (Figure 8) for
connection point position.
Regulators are supplied pre-adjusted and configured by the
component maker for use with Natural Gas.
The appliance installer is not required to make an
adjustment to obtain the correct outlet pressure setting.
An arrow on the base of the regulator indicates the
direction of gas flow when the inlet and outlet of the
regulator is orientated correctly. When the regulator has
been fitted check for leaks from the connections with
soapy water.
GAS CONNECTION
18
CHECKING THE GAS SUPPLY
1. Check the manometer zero point is correct.
2. Connect the manometer to the cooktop pressure point.
This is located on the regulator.
3. Turn on the gas supply and electricity and try to
ignite the gas.
NOTE! It will take additional time to light the gas for the first
time as air needs to be purged from the pipes.
4. With the appliance operating check the outlet pressure
• when all burners of the appliance are operating
at maximum,
• when the smallest burner of the appliance is
operating at minimum.
Under these conditions the outlet pressure should not
vary from the nominal outlet pressure of 1.00kPa by
more than ±0.20kPa.
If the regulator appears to not be performing satisfactorily,
then check the following points:
1. If the outlet pressure is consistently too low then the inlet
pressure may be too low and adjustment of an upstream
regulator may be needed, or an upstream regulator or
valve with insufficient flow capacity may be present in
the gas supply line. If this is suspected then it may be
necessary to repeat the checks whilst measuring both
the inlet and outlet pressure to determine if the inlet
pressure is in the range
1.13 – 5kPa.
2. Check that the regulator has been fitted to the gas
supply line in the correct orientation, the arrow on the
base of the body indicates the direction of gas flow.
Once these checks have been completed, if the
regulator still fails to perform in a satisfactory manner it should
be replaced.

Assembly of the regulator
The assembly of the regulator to the cooktop manifold is
achieved via the elbow union and sealing washer supplied,
refer to figure 8.
The ½” parallel thread connects to the manifold, and the
sealing washer is placed between the manifold end and
the flat face on the elbow.
The ½” tapered thread connects to the outlet of
the regulator, and is sealed on the thread using approved
thread sealing tape or approved thread sealing compound.
The inlet of the regulator is a ½” parallel thread and
is connected to consumer piping or hose assembly.
Regulators are supplied pre-adjusted and configured
by the component maker for use with Natural Gas.
The appliance installer is not required to make an
adjustment to obtain the correct outlet pressure setting.
An arrow on the base of the regulator indicates the
direction of gas flow when the inlet and outlet of the
regulator is orientated correctly. When the regulator has
been fitted check for leaks from the connections with
soapy water.

LPG CONVERSION
This appliance is supplied set up for Natural Gas usage.
A conversion kit is included with the product for Universal
LPG usage. The conversion kit contains the appropriate
injectors and 1 LPG sticker.
Please follow the procedure below if a conversion to suit
UNIVERSAL LPG is required:
1. Remove the hotplate trivets, burner caps and burner
crowns to access the hotplate injectors. Replace the
factory fitted injectors with the appropriate injectors,
as supplied. Refer to injector orifice table for injector
sizes. The injector size is stamped on the side of the
injector.
2. Unscrew the top hat nut from the regulator. The top
hat nut and control pressure spring assembly will
disengage as an assembly.
3. Unscrew the threaded pin from top hat.
4. Upturn threaded pin, so spring is free and screw pin
back into the top hat until firm.
5. Refit the top hat nut assembly to the regulator
ensuring that it is fully screwed down. The regulator is
now set for connection to LPG.
6. Turn on the gas supply and at each new connection
check for leaks using soapy water. Each hotplate
valve should be turned on, one at a time, and the
injector hole blanked off for several seconds.
7. The operation of the regulator can be confirmed by
connecting a manometer to the pressure test point
located on the side of the regulator body adjacent to
the outlet.
With the appliance operating check the outlet
pressure when all burners of the appliance are
operating at maximum, when the smallest burner of
the appliance is operating at minimum.
Under these conditions the outlet pressure should
not vary from the nominal outlet pressure of 2.60kPa
by more than ±0.52kPa.
8. If the regulator appears to not be performing
satisfactorily then check the following points:
If the outlet pressure is consistently too low then the
inlet pressure may be too low and adjustment of an
upstream regulator may be needed, or an upstream
regulator or valve with insufficient flow capacity may
be present in the gas supply line.
If this is suspected then it may be necessary to
repeat the checks whilst measuring both the inlet and
outlet pressure to determine if the inlet pressure is in
the range 2.75 – 7.00kPa.
Check that the insert has been fitted correctly.
Check that the turret screw is fully screwed down.
Check that the regulator has been fitted to the gas
supply line in the correct orientation, the arrow on the
base of the body indicates the direction of gas flow.
Once these checks have been completed, if the
regulator still fails to perform in a satisfactory manner
it should be replaced.
9. One by one, turn the knobs to minimum and screw
in the bypass screw (accessible when the knob is
removed) until a small stable flame results. Turn the
knob to maximum and then back to minimum to
ensure that the correct minimum flame is maintained.
10. Attach the LPG sticker to the cooker, near the gas
supply inlet. Cover the Natural Gas label that is
factory fitted.

The appliance is supplied with a standard 7.5 Amp service
cord terminated by a 3-pin plug for connection to a standard
household socket. The electrical supply is required to power
the electronic ignition system.
NOTE! It will be necessary for servicing purposes to
disconnect the electrical power supply. The power
point should therefore be accessible after the appliance
is installed, as specified in the local wiring regulations.
Diagram 1 is a schematic of the wiring in the appliance.

After installation, test the appliance and ensure that it
operates correctly before handing it over to the customer.
The following procedure is recommended:
1. Turn on the gas and electricity supply and attempt
ignition on all burners, both separately and in
combination. (For correct procedure refer to page
7 Lighting Burners). Note that additional time needs
to be allowed for the initial lighting as air has to be
purged from the pipes.
2. Observe the flame appearance on each burner
(Figure 9). If it is much larger or much smaller than
expected, the injector size and supply pressure
require checking. Where a flame is unsatisfactory,
refer to the Troubleshooting Guide (page 10) to
correct the fault. If the Troubleshooting Guide does
not solve the problem, call the Service Centre.
3. When all the foregoing is satisfactory, check the
turndown (minimum or low) setting on each burner,
as this may need adjustment. Valves have a bypass
controlling screw, which may be accessed by
removing the knob. This screw will be located on a
particular area of the valve (refer Figure 10). Normally,
this will have been correctly set at the factory for
use on Natural Gas (NG) and should not require
adjustment.
IMPORTANT
If the appliance has been converted to LPG, then
the bypass screw will HAVE to be screwed in until a
small, stable flame results.
Please ensure the supply pressure has been
checked PRIOR to any adjustment.
4. If the appliance cannot be adjusted to perform safely
inform the customer of the problem and affix an
appropriate warning notice to the appliance. If the
fault appears to be dangerous the appliance should
be disconnected. If a minor fault exists, the customer
may wish to use the appliance while awaiting service.
If a fault cannot be fixed, please call the
Service Centre.
5. The customer should be advised that, in the event
of a fault, the local service organisation or the
retailer from whom the appliance was purchased
should be contacted.
6. When satisfied that the unit is operating correctly,
turn off and instruct the customer on correct
operation as outlined in this booklet. Ask the
customer to operate the controls to ensure that
the correct procedure is understood.
