THE GAS HOB
USES OF THE HOB
The gas hob has four different burner sizes to suit different types of cooking:
To ensure maximum burner efficiency only use pots and pans with flat bases appropriate to the burner size used.
Burner | Minimum | Maximum |
| Pan Size | Pan Size |
Ultra Rapid | 160mm (6½”) | 300m (11½”) |
Rapid | 120mm (5”) | 200mm (8”) |
Normal | 120mm (5”) | 200mm (8”) |
Simmer | 120mm (5”) | 200mm (8”) |
Ensure the pan support is correctly fitted before using the hob. See page 11.
HOW TO LIGHT THE HOB BURNERS
The hob ignition works by means of an electric spark system. Details about the plug are given on page 22.
1.Push in and turn the control knob to the left to the highest setting. This is shown by a large flame symbol.
2.When the burner has lit release the control and adjust the setting as required.
When lighting any burner ensure that it is lit before you leave the appliance.
When turning off a burner, ensure the flame has gone out before leaving the appliance.
TO TURN OFF ANY BURNER
1.Turn the control knob to the off position. This is shown by a large dot.
Place pans on the centre of the burners. Position pans so the handles cannot be accidentally knocked or overhang the appliance.
Lift pans on and off the pan supports. Do not slide them across the hob.
