Using the Hob
When turning the hob off, turn the knob in the
clockwise direction so that the knob shows "
position or the marker on the knob points
upwards.
Your hob has burners of different diameters.
The most economic way of using gas is to
choose the correct size gas burners for your
cooking pan size and to bring the flame to
the minimum position once the boiling point is
reached. It is recommended to always cover
your cooking pan.
Cookware Selection
In order to obtain maximum performance from
the main burners, use pots with the following
flat bottom diameters. Using smaller pots than
the minimum dimensions stated below will
cause energy loss.
Rapid Burner: 22-26cm
Medium Burner: 14-22cm
Auxiliary Burner: 12-18cm
Make sure that the tips of the flames do
not spread out of the outer circumference
of the pan, as this may also harm the
accessories around the pan (handles etc.)
When the burners are not in use for
prolonged periods, always turn the main
gas control valve off.
WARNING:
Use only flat bottomed pans and with a
sufficiently thick base.
Ensure that the base of the pan is dry
before placing it on the burners.
The temperature of accessible parts may
be high when the appliance is operating.
So it is important to keep children and
animals out of the reach of the burners
during and after cooking (until the cooker
has cooled down).

After use the hob remains very hot for a
prolonged period of time, do not touch it
and do not place any object on top of the
hob.
Never place cutlery or lids on the hob as
they will get hot and could cause serious
burns.
SAFETY ADVICE IN THE CASE OF A
COOKING PAN FIRE
1. Turn off the burner.
2. Cover the pan with a fire blanket or
damp cloth. This will smother the flames
and extinguish the fire.
3. Leave the pan to cool for at least an
hour before attempting to move it. Injuries
are often caused by picking up a hot pan
and rushing outside with it.
NEVER USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO
PUT OUT A PAN FIRE
as the force of the extinguisher could
tip the pan over.
Never use water to extinguish oil or fat
pan fires.
