FOR YOUR SAFETY  
When used properly, your appliance is completely safe but as with any  
product there are certain precautions that must be observed.  
PLEASE READ THE PRECAUTIONS BELOW BEFORE USING YOUR  
APPLIANCE.  
ALWAYS  
Always make sure you understand the controls prior to using the appliance.  
Always keep children away from the appliance when in use as the surfaces will get  
extremely hot during and after cooking.  
Always make sure all controls are turned off when you have finished cooking and  
when not in use.  
Always take care to avoid heat/steam burns when operating the controls.  
Always turn off the electricity supply at the wall switch and allow the appliance to cool  
before cleaning .  
Always keep the appliance clean as a build up of grease or fat from cooking can  
cause a fire.  
Always follow the basic principles of food handling and hygiene to prevent the  
possibility of bacterial growth.  
Always refer servicing to a qualified appliance service engineer.  
Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower it slowly into the hot oil or fat.  
Frozen foods, in particular, will cause frothing and spitting, if added too quickly.  
Always keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or fat.  
Always place pans centrally over the burner making sure handles are kept away from  
the edge of the hob and cannot become heated by other burners / pans.  
SAFETY ADVICE  
IMPORTANT - As with any cooking appliance there could be some fire risk attached to  
the heating of oil, particularly for deep fat frying. Cooking utensils containing oil must not  
be left unattended (e.g. to answer the telephone) on or in close proximity to the cooking  
areas.  
IN THE EVENT OF A CHIP PAN OR ANY OTHER PAN FIRE:  
1. TURN OFF THE BURNERS.  
2. COVER THE PAN WITH A FIRE BLANKET OR DAMP CLOTH, this will smother the  
flames and extinguish the fire.  
3. LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 60 MINUTES BEFORE MOVING IT.  
Injuries are often caused by picking up a hot pan and rushing outside with it.  
NEVER USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO PUT OUT A PAN FIRE as the force of the  
extinguisher is likely to tip the pan over. Never use water to extinguish oil or  
fat fires.

CARE AND CLEANING  
SWITCH OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING.  
BEFORE SWITCHING ON AGAIN, ENSURE THAT ALL  
CONTROLS ARE IN THE OFF POSITION.  
NEVER USE BIOLOGICAL WASHING POWDER, HARSH  
ABRASIVES, SCOURING PADS, AEROSOL CLEANERS OR  
OVEN CHEMICAL CLEANERS OF ANY KIND.  
Clean the hob regularly and wipe up spills soon after they occur to prevent them from  
becoming burnt on.  
CLEANING MATERIALS TO AVOID  
1. Household abrasive powders, e.g. Vim.  
2. Oven chemical cleaners, aerosols and oven pads.  
Caustic cleaners such as these will etch the surface and attack the metal frame.  
3. Bath and sink cleaners may mark the surface.  
VITREOUS ENAMEL HOB, PAN SUPPORTS AND BURNER CAPS.  
Wipe with a cloth wrung out in hot soapy water. Stubborn stains can be removed with  
a cream paste or liquid cleaner.  
STAINLESS STEEL.  
Wipe with a cloth wrung out in hot soapy water followed by a wipe with a cloth wrung  
out in clear water and then dried with a soft clean cloth.  
ALUMINIUM BURNER BODIES AND RINGS.  
Wipe with a cloth wrung out in hot soapy water only; do not use abrasives. Use a  
nylon brush to remove any cleaning materials, water or dirt from the burner bodies.  
Re-assemble as in the diagram below.  
CONTROL KNOBS.  
Wipe over the knobs with a soft cloth wrung out in hot soapy water or mild non-abra-  
sive cleaner. Then, after wiping with a cloth wrung out in clear water, dry with a soft  
clean cloth.

SOMETHING WRONG ?  
IF THE IGNITION DOES NOT WORK  
Is the electricity switched on?  
If the electricity supply has failed, the burners can be lit with a match.  
If only a hotplate burner is failing to ignite, check that the burner body and cap are  
seated correctly and that the slots in the burner body are not blocked (see care  
and cleaning).  
May we wish you many years of carefree successful cooking.

INSTALLATION - electrical requirements  
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.  
CONNECT TO A 230-240V A.C. SUPPLY ONLY.  
Connection to the electricity supply should be made via a properly earthed, readily accessible  
wall socket which is adjacent to but not directly above, and not more than 1.25m away from the  
appliance and capable of electrical isolation.  
Should this plug not fit the socket outlet in your home it should be cut off and replaced with a  
suitable plug as outlined below.  
NOTE: The removed plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore be  
properly disposed of and not left where children might find it and plug it into a supply  
socket – with the obvious consequent danger.  
IF THE FITTED PLUG IS REMOVED  
The flexible mains lead must be correctly connected as below to a three pin plug of not less  
than 13 amp capacity. If a B.S. 1363 fused plug is used, it must be fitted with a 3 amp fuse which  
is approved to B.S. 1362.  
IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead fitted to  
this appliance are coloured in  
accordance with the following code:  
Green &  
Yellow to  
Earth  
Brown to  
GREEN AND YELLOW – EARTH  
Blue to  
Neutral  
Live  
BLUE  
– NEUTRAL  
LIVE  
BROWN  
3 Amp  
Fuse  
Cord Clamp  
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the  
coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:– The wire which is  
coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with  
the letter E or by the earth symbol  
or coloured green or green and yellow. The wire which is  
coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the N or coloured black.  
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the  
terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. When wiring the plug, ensure that all  
strands of wire are securely retained in each terminal. Do not forget to tighten the mains lead  
clamp on the plug. As the appliance must be earthed, do not use 2-pin  
sockets outlets, if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.  
Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be  
carried out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of the  
same size i.e. 0.75mm2 cross sectional area and temperature rating of 850 C e.g. heat resisting  
PVC.  
IF A MOULDED PLUG IS FITTED  
In the event of replacing a fuse in the plug supplied a 3 amp ASTA approved fuse to BS1362  
must be fitted.  
NOTE: The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse. In the event of losing the  
fuse cover the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been obtained and  
fitted. A new fuse cover can be obtained from your local Electricity Board. The colour of the  
correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured marks or inserts in the base of the plug.  
Make sure that the cable does not become trapped.

INSTALLATION  
SITING THE HOB  
The hob is designed to fit into worktop and base unit(s) with a cutout as shown in  
Fig.1. Any obstruction such as supports or side panels must be removed to allow  
30mm minimum depth below the worktop cutout. Any overhead surface of  
combustible material must not be closer than 600mm. When installing next to a tall  
cupboard, partition or wall, for a minimum distance of 400mm above the hotplate a  
side clearance of at least 40mm should be allowed from the edge of the cutout. This  
is a type X appliance regarding installation requirements, it is recommended that a  
shelf is fitted to the cabinet under the hob, but no closer than 10mm to prevent  
access to the underside of the hob which will become hot when in use.  
If a cooker hood is to be installed refer to the manufacturer’s instructions regarding  
fixing heights.  
FITTING THE HOB  
Unpack the hob from the carton.  
Remove the bag containing the sealing tape, fixing brackets, screws and gas inlet  
elbow.  
Fit the sealing tape around the edge of the cut-out in the worktop.  
Connect the gas inlet elbow supplied to the end of the hob gas pipe. During  
installation, it is important not to twist the hob gas pipe when connecting to or  
adjusting the position of the gas inlet elbow to avoid the possibility of disturbing gas  
tight joints inside the hob. Ensure that the inlet is held securely:  
*
*
When loosening or tightening the hob gas pipe securing nut.  
When connecting fittings to it.  
Also, ensure that connecting pipe work does not twist the inlet elbow away from its  
free position.  
Lower the hob into the worktop ensuring the mains lead is fed into the base unit and  
is not trapped under the flanges.  
Fix the hob to the worktop using the fixing brackets and screws.  
NB Do not over tighten the hob clamps as distortion of the hob may occur.  
Connect the hob to the gas supply and check for gas soundness. If a flexible hose is  
used for connection, it should be fitted such that it cannot come into contact with  
moveable parts of the housing (e.g. a drawer), does not pass through a space where  
it is likely to become trapped or damaged and hangs freely downwards. The tem-  
perature rise of the area of the base panel likely to come into contact with a flexible  
hose does not exceed 70ºC  
Connection must be by rigid pipework when the hob is installed above an oven.  
Put the burner rings and caps into position.  
Connect the hob to the electrical supply (see INSTALLATION - Electrical  
Requirements).  
Ensure that the hob is functioning correctly prior to use. Instruct the user in the  
operation of the hob.
