Flame failure safety feature

Your cooktop has a flame failure safety device fitted.

A metal probe behind the burner generates electricity when a flame is present.

After 5 seconds the metal probe gets hot enough to hold a valve open and maintain the gas supply.

If the flame is blown out then the gas to the burner is cut off.

To operate the flame failure you need to hold the burner knob down for 5 seconds after the burner has ignited.

Letting go of the burner knob too soon will extinguish the flame.

Your cooktop has two probes at the back of the burners, one will be the spark electrode and the other is the flame failure probe.

Using Saucepans

Generally, larger saucepans are more efficient. It is a good idea to match the size of your pan with the cooking zone of the burner and always make sure pans are stable. Do not let large saucepans or frying pans overlap the bench as this can defect heat onto your benchtop and damage the surface.

Hints and tips

To get the best out of your cooktop follow these simple suggestions.

Do not use an asbestos mat between the flame and the saucepan as this may cause serious damage to your cooktop.

Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes on the burners.

Saucepans should have thick flat bottoms. Food in a saucepan with an uneven bottom will take longer to cook. Heavy saucepans may bend the pan support or deflect the flame.

Match the bottom of your saucepans with the cooking zone and see that it is stable. This will give you the most efficient cooking. Do not let large saucepans or frying pans overlap the bench as this can deflect heat onto your benchtop and damage the surface.
