The hotplate lid is fitted with a safety device which cuts
off the gas supply to the hotplate burners unless the lid
is fully open. Do not use the safety device as a means
of controlling the hotplate burners.
The hotplate has two high speed burners and two
simmering burners which will accommodate pans
between 100mm (4") and 240mm (91/2") diameter. All
pans should be positioned centrally over the burners.
TO USE THE HOTPLATE
1. Remove any items or spillage from the top of the
lid and then raise it to its fully open position.
2. Push in and turn the control knob of the chosen
burner anti-clockwise to the large flame symbol.
Continue to press the ignition button until the sparks
light the gas.
For the models with the electronic ignition button (

3. Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to reduce the
heat input. Only turn the control knob between the
large flame symbol and the small flame symbol
when adjusting the setting.
4. To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to
the symbol O.
Each burner is fitted with a spark ignitor for lighting the
gas. To ensure rapid lighting of the burners every time
they are used, the ignitors must be kept clean and dry.
