OPERATION

HOB BURNERS
To light a burner, turn the relevant knob
anticlockwise to maximum position and push
down the knob to ignite.
Then adjust the flame as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control
knob to zero, and try again.
When switching on the mains, after
installation or a power cut, it is quite normal
for the spark generator to be activated
automatically.
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, it is
strongly recommended that you use only
pots and pans with a bottom fitting the size
of the burner used, so that flame will not
spread beyond the bottom of the vessel. It is
also advisable, as soon as a liquid starts
boiling, to turn down the flame so that it will
barely keep the liquid simmering.
It is recommended to adjust the flame so
that it is no larger than the diameter of the
base of the saucepan.
If you want to use a pan with a dimeter
larger than 26 cm., we recommed you use it
on the front left hand burner.
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
Service Centre.
Under no circumstances should the hob be
left unattented 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 accidentaly dislodged,
for example during cleaning, make sure they
are pushed firmly back into position before
attempting to turn them on.
