INSTALLATION
Any gas installation must be carried out by a registered CORGI installer, and in
accordance with existing rules and regulations.
The relevant instructions are to be found in the second section of this manual.
Please, ensure that, once the hob is installed, it is easily accessible for the engineer in the
event of a breakdown.
WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED
Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any protective materials, which
were put on in the factory.

Operation
Hob burners
To light a burner:
F
l
l
Push in the relevant control knob and turn it to maximum position.
Upon ignition, keep the knob pushed down about 5 seconds. This will allow the
"thermocouple" (Fig. 1 - letter C) to be heated and the safety device to be switched off,
otherwise the gas supply would be interrupted.
l
l
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, you should only use pots and pans with a flat
bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table).

As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so
that it will barely keep the liquid simmering.
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the
recommended size, the flame will spread beyond the
bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to overheat.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the
overheated splashes could easily ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please
contact your local Service Force Centre.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the
hob from the electricity supply.
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage can be removed more easily
than if it is left to cool.
The Hob Top
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to
which a little washing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is recommended that a cleaning product
such as Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend is used.
If scratches or cracks are noticed, disconnect the appliance from the electrical
supply and call your nearest Service Force Centre.
Fig. 2
Pan Supports
The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If washing them
by hand, take care when drying them as the enamelling
process occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary,
remove stubborn stains using a paste cleaner.
The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed for
cleaning. The cap and crown of each burner are
secured with two screws. To separate the two pieces, lift
the cap, turn it upside down, then undo the two fixing
FO2265
screws as shown in fig. 2. After cleaning, reassemble
the two parts and refit the cap on its correct position on the burner. Wash the burner caps
and crowns using hot soapy water, and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner.Awell
moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are
particularly difficult to remove.After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Ignition electrode
The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic "electrode" and a metal electrode
(fig. 1 - letter B). Keep these components well clean, to avoid difficult lighting, and
check that the burner crown holes are not obstructed.

Electrical connections
Any electrical work required to install this hob should be carried out by a qualified
electrician or competent person, in accordance with the current regulations.
THIS HOB MUST BE EARTHED.
The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety measures not be observed.
This hob is designed to be connected to a 230-240V 50HzAC electrical supply.
Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that indicated
on the hob rating plate. The rating plate is located on the bottom of the hob. Acopy is
attached on the back cover of this book.
The hob is supplied with a 3 core flexible supply cord incorporating a 3amp plug fitted. In
the event of having to change the fuse, a 3ampASTAapproved (BS 1362) fuse must be
used.
Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason, the wires in the mains lead are
coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green and Yellow
- Earth
- Neutral
- Live
Blue
Brown
1) Connect the green and yellow (earth) wire
to the terminal in the plug which is marked
with the letter 'E' or the earth symbol or
coloured green and yellow.
2) Connecttheblue(neutral)wiretotheterminal
in the plug which is marked with the letter 'N'
or coloured black.
FO 0390
3) Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal
in the plug which is marked with the letter 'L' or coloured red.
Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray strands of wire present and the cord
clamp must be secure over the outer sheath.
In the event of having to change the fuse, a 3ampASTAapproved (BS 1362) fuse must
be used.
Acut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard.
Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of safely.
17
Permanent Connection
In the case of a permanent connection, it is necessary that you install a double pole
switch between the hob and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap of 3 mm.
between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with
the current electric regulations.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth cable at any point.
Ensure that the hob supply cord does not come into contact with surfaces with
temperatures higher than 50 deg. C.
Replacement of the cable
The connection of the voltage cable to the appliance's terminal block is of type "Y". This
means that its replacement requires the specific equipment of a technician.
In this case, only cable types H05RR-F, H05 V2V2-F (T90) or H05 BB-F must be used.
The cable section must be suitable to the voltage and the working temperature.
The yellow/green earth wire must be approximately 2 cm. longer than the phase wires.

less than 0.1 W(Ohm), check all earth wires for continuity and all contacts are clean
andtight.
B. INSULATION CHECK
Appliance electrically disconnected, all switches ON.
a) meter set on W (Ohms) x 1 scale.
Test leads from L to N in appliance terminal block. If meter reads «0» then there is a
short circuit.
b) meter set on W (Ohm) x 100 scale.
Repeat test with leads from L to E. If meter reads less than¥ (infinity) there is a fault.
NOTE - Should it be found that the fuse has failed but no fault is indicated - a detailed continuity
check (i.e. by disconnecting and checking each component) is required to trace the faulty
component.
It is possible that a fault could occur as a result of local burning/arcing but no fault could be found
under test. However a detailed visual inspection should reveal evidence of burning around the
fault.
