SELECTING THE HOB
USES OF THE HOB
The gas hob has three 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.
Larger burner (Rapid) - use a large pan for food such
as chips.
Medium burners (Normal) - use for everyday
cooking.
Small burner (Simmer) - use for simmering foods
such as soups and stews.
The largest pan which you should use on any burner
is 230mm (9"). The base of the smallest pan should
not measure less than 100mm (4")
TO LIGHT THE HOB BURNERS
The hob ignition works by means of an electric spark
system.
1. Push in and turn the control knob to the left to the
highest setting. This is shown by a large flame
symbol. Press the ignition button immediately.
2. When the burner has lit release the control and
adjust the setting as required.
Warning: if the ignition button is not
pressed immediately a build up of gas
may cause the flame to spread.
TO TURN OFF ANY BURNER
1. Turn the control knob to the off position. This is
shown by a large dot.
THINGS TO NOTE
If you are having any difficulty lighting a hob burner
turn all the hob controls off and make sure the
burner parts have been replaced correctly.
See page 21 for more information.
HEAT CONTROL
The hotplate control knobs turn anticlockwise from
'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'. You can adjust
the heat by turning the control between the highest
and lowest settings. These are shown as a large
and a small flame symbol.
