be carried out by a qualified trades person.
Water Supply and Drainage
Your kitchen is supplied with a waste kit and tap (except
for the contract range) please ensure these are fitted
and secured correctly by a competent trades person
to ensure a watertight installation.
Hotplates
Before your first use of hotplates, the rings must be
tempered. For this you must peform the following;
First the rear hob must be switched on at the
highest level without a pot for at least 4 minutes (the
front plate must remain off). After this time, wait at
least 5 minutes. Then switch on the front hotplate to
the highest level without a pot for at least 4 minutes
(the rear plate remains off). Thereafter, the operation
of burners is generally prohibited without pot.
Use only vessels with a flat bottom and a plate for
each appropriate diameter.
Timer – if fitted
As an additional safety device for safe cut-off of rings,
the mini kitchen has a mechanical timer with a max.
running time of 30 minutes. After the set time 0 to 30
minutes, the power is interrupted to the burners. If longer
cooking is required, the timer must be re-set again to the
maximum adjustable 30 minutes.
The hotplates are controlled according to a switch with
seven switch positions (6 circuit stages and a 0-
position). On the knobs you will find the numbers
0-1-2-3.
0 = Off
1 = Low
2 = Medium
3 = High
The dots indicate three additional intermediate/half
stages. These intermediates can be selected if the
higher level is too high or the lower level of heat output
is too small.
At 0-position the hob is switched off. The indicator light
is lit while at least one of the two rings is in operation.
The cooking plates can still be hot (residual heat)
despite extinguished pilot light.
O) = for rear hob
o) = switch for the front hob
For parboiling set the timer to the desired cooking time
and then turn the switch at level 3 Then switch according
to need one or several levels lower. In almost all cooking
and frying operationsthe hotplates can be turned off 5-10
minutes prior due to the residual heat of the hotplate. So
switch to "0" and select the cooking time with the timer
correspondingly shorter. If the cooking time exceeds the
maximum adjustable 30 minutes, the timer this must be
reset.
