Gas Hob - Zanussi MC 9634 Instructions For The Use And Care

Gas hob
The control panel incorporates knobs to
operate the four gas burners.
To light a worktop burner, turn the
relevant knob (Fig. 1) to the large flame
symbol which corresponds to the
maxinium setting.
Depress the ignition pushbutton ( ) on
the facia panel. Once the burner is alight
ac^ust the flame as required. The smaller
flame symbol is a simmer setting.
It is important that pans with a base
fitting the size of the burner be used so
that the flame does not spread beyond
the bottom of the pan.
Important
Be very careful when frying food in hot
oil or fat as the overheated splashes
could easily flare up.

Safety cut off
Your cooker is fitted with a safety cut off
device which is actuated when the lid is
lowered. This cuts the electricity and gas
supply to the whole appliance, and
prevents the lid being lowered onto the
burners when they are still on. When the
lid is raised again, the electricity supply
to the oven is automatically restored. The
gas supply to the hob must be restored
manually by depressing the pushbutton
on the rear left hand comer of the hob
surface.
There are two important points to
remember; firstly the lid must be in the
raised position for any part of the cooker
to function. Secondly, you must
remember to return all the controls to
their off positions when you have finished
using the cooker. If you have for instance
left the oven on, when the lid is raised it
will automatically come on again.
Obviously if you manually restore the gas
supply and any of the burner controls
have not been returned to their off
positions, the gas will escape.
