rear left and front centre - semi-rapid burners - each rated at 1.91 kW rear right and front right - rapid burner - each rated at 3.22 kW centre rear - ultra rapid burner - rated at 5.1 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.

TO USE THE HOTPLATE

zTo light a hotplate burner, push and hold down the appropriate control knob and turn counter-clockwise to the large flame symbol , until the burner lights, and hold in for 3 seconds and then rotate the knob to the required setting.

zIn the event of the burner flame being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not attempt to re-ignite 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 pan supports on the appliance are much heavier than those on most gas hotplates. Therefore care must be taken when removing or re-fitting them to the hotplate. It is important that they are lifted from the appliance and not dragged across adjacent enamelled components which would result in damaging the enamel.

zPans and kettles with concave bases should not be used.

zGlazed cooking utensils - Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without breaking because of sudden change in temperature.

zEnsure the correct size utensil is chosen to prevent food boil over.

zNever leave surface units unattended at high heat settings - Grease from pans boiling over, may ignite.
