The Hob Glass Lid

The hob glass lid on the cooker is toughened for your protection and safety. Before opening it remove any food deposits from its surface. The glass lid is purely decorative and is not intended as a work surface and should not be used for this purpose. As with any glass surface care must be taken to avoid scratches or damage, as this may result in the glass breaking. The glass lid incorporates a safety valve that shuts off the gas supply to the four hob burners, when the lid is lowered.

The oven(s) and grill will still operate with the lid in its closed position. Do not use this facility as a means

of controlling the burners. This device is fitted in the interests of safety.

WARNING: Always make sure that all the control knobs are in the OFF position and the burners have cooled before the hob lid is closed. Failure to do so could result in damage to the lid and a risk of personal injury. Please note that if the gas taps have not been turned off, the supply of gas to the hob burners will restart when the hob is lifted and will not re-light until a spark or flame ignites them.

Burner operation

1.Check that the electricity supply is switched on.

2.Ensure the glass lid is in its open (Upright) position. Select the burner to be used. Push in and turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the large flame symbol. Press the ignition button until the burner lights (Or manual ignition by match, taper or other auxiliary methods may be used). Turn the control knob to the required setting. A simmer position is achieved when the control knob is turned fully anti-clockwise.

3.To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to the '0' symbol.

Advice on Pan Suitability

Do not use pans which are unstable when placed on a flat work top. The use of split pans, i.e. those comprising two or more pans designed to fit together over a single burner, is not recommended as these can be unstable on the hotplate. In order to get best value out of your hob, the following economy tip is recommended. Choose the correct burner for the size of pan e.g. 18cm (for auxiliary burner), 20cm (for semi-rapid burner) and 22cm (for rapid burner).

Energy Saving Tips

1.Do use saucepans with lids.

2.Place pans centrally over burner.

3.Do not allow flames to lick up the sides of the pan.

4.Only fill kettles or pans with the amount of liquid needed.

5.Turn down the gas as soon as the contents of the pan boil.

6.Do not light the burner until the pan is in position and turn off before removing the pan.

7.Cut vegetables into smaller pieces so that they cook quicker and cook more than one vegetable in the same pan, e.g. carrots and potatoes.

8.In hard water areas de-scale kettles regularly.

9.Consider using a pressure cooker.
