GAS HOTPLATE

zThe hotplate has six gas burners:

front left - ultra rapid (wok) burner - rated at 4.0 kW

rear left and front centre - semi-rapid burners - each rated at 1.75 kW rear right and front right - rapid burner - each rated at 3.0 kW centre rear - ultra rapid burner - rated at 5.0 kW

zThe semi rapid burners are especially suited for use with small pans and gentle simmering or poaching.

zAll burners have a set simmer position and are easily adjustable.

zWARNING: The LPG Six-Four Series is not approved for use with a flat griddle plate. The flat griddle plate MUST NOT be used, only use the round ribbed pan provided.

Performance and technical problems can occur when a large flat griddle plate is fitted over LPG burners, delayed ignition of unburnt gas can occur on LPG products, especially on a hotplate fitted with high rated burners.

TO USE THE HOTPLATE

zTo light a hotplate burner, push in and turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the large

flame symbol ( ), and hold in for 3 seconds until the burner lights, then turn the knob to the required setting.

zIf the burner flame should accidentally go out, turn off the burner control and do not attempt to re-light the burner for at least one minute.

zThe control may be set towards a lower position, simply by turning the control knob towards the small flame symbol.

zIMPORTANT: The cast iron supports on the appliance are much heavier than those on most gas hotplate cookers, therefore care must be taken when removing or refitting them to the hob. It is important that they are lifted from the appliance and not dragged across adjacent enamelled components which would result in damaging the enamel.
