HOTPLATE
The Traditional 60 has a hotplate lid that is fitted with a safety device which cuts off the
gas supply to the hotplate burners unless the lid is fully open. Do not use the safety
device as a means of controlling the hotplate burners.
The Traditional 60 hotplate has two high speed burners and two simmering burners.
The Professional 60 hotplate has one very high speed wok burner, one high speed
burner and two simmering burners.
Burners will accommodate pans between 100mm (4”) and 240mm (9
1
/2”) diameter.
All pans should be positioned centrally over the burners.
TO USE THE HOTPLATE
1. (Traditional 60 only): Remove any items or spillage from the top of the lid
and then raise it to its fully open position.
2. Push in and turn the control knob of the chosen burner anti-clockwise to the
large flame symbol. Continue to push in the knob until the sparks light the gas.
3. Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to reduce the heat input.
Only turn the control knob between the large flame symbol and the small
flame symbol when adjusting the setting.
4. To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to the symbol O.
DO NOT use the hotplate unless all pan supports are in position.
DO NOT use mis-shapen pans which may be unstable.
DO NOT use round base woks directly on the pan supports.
DO NOT use the glass lid as a working surface (Traditional 60 only).
Each burner is fitted with a spark ignitor for lighting the gas. To ensure rapid lighting of
the burners every time they are used, the ignitors must be kept clean and dry.
Remove any food spillage or cleaning materials from the ignitor using a small nylon
brush such as a tooth brush. Access to the ignitor can be achieved by lifting off the
loose burner parts carefully when the burners are cool.
When the hotplate burner bodies and caps are removed for cleaning, be careful not to
drop any food particles or cleaning materials into the burner bases, to avoid the
possibility of blocking the gas jets.
If aluminium based pans are used, a silvery deposit may appear on the top edge of the
pan support fingers. See ‘Care and Cleaning’ section for cleaning information.
