OPERATION
HOB BURNERS
To light a burner, turn the relevant knob anti¬
clockwise to maximum and then depress the
ignitor pushbutton marked by a small electric
spark symbol.
Then adjust the flame as required.
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, it is
strongly recommended that you use only pots
and pans whith a bottom fitting the size of the
burner being used, so that the flame will not
spread beyond the bottom of the vessel. It is
also advisable, as soon as liquid starts boiling,
to turn down the flame so that it will barely keep
the liquid simmering.
IMPORTANT
Be very careful when frying food in hot oil or fat,
as the overheated splashes could easily ignite.
IMPORTANT
If the control Knobs become difficult to turn,
please contact your local Tricity Bendix After
Sales Service Centre.
SAFETY CUT OFF
The models HG 240 are equipped with a safety
cut off device which totally interrupts the gas
supply of the hob burners by lowering the hob
lid.
By lifting up the lid the gas supply is restored.
Light the flame by depressing the ignition push
button or remember to turn the gas control
knobs to the off position.
It is recommended to adjust the flame so that it
no larger than the diameter of the base of the
saucepan.
Under no circumstances should the hob be left
unattended when in use.
When operating a burner make sure that the gas
is fully ignited.
The control knobs are not designed to be
removed. If they are accidentally dislodged, for
example during cleaning, make sure they are
pushed firmly back into position before
attempting to turn them on.
Do not use any type of commercial simmering
aid on this hobs.
Where it is possible to use the drawer or
drawers directly beneath the hobs store only
non-combustable materials in them. It is not
advisable to store food in these drawers.
When the hob is being used, open the drawer or
drawers fully before removing any equipment.
