INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Using the burners
To obtain the maximum efficiency without wasting gas, the pot diameter must be suitable in
relation to the burner (see the following table), to avoid the flame extending beyond the bottom
of the pot.
Use the maximum capacity to quickly make the liquids reach the boiling temperature, and the
reduced capacity to heat food or maintain the boil.
Burners Power (W) Ø Pot
Auxiliary 1000 10 - 14 cm
Semi-rapid 1650 16 - 18 cm
Rapid 3000 20 - 22 cm
Triple crown 4000 24 - 26 cm
Precautions
- The appliance is equipped with a device that attempts to re-light the burner if the flame blows out
accidentally. If the burner does not light after 3 attempts, it will lock out and the letter “b” will appear
on the relevant display. In this case, perform the reset procedure as described below.
- Fat and oil can catch fire when overheated so use caution when cooking in fat or oil.
- Do not use sprays near the appliance when it is in operation.
- Do not place unstable or deformed pots on pan support: risk of overturning or spillage of contents.
- Make sure pot handles are positioned correctly.
- When the burner is lit, check that the flame is even and, before removing pots, always turn down the
flame or switch off the burner..
CLEANING
Before cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.
Do not clean the appliance with steam cleaners.
The appliance should be cleaned only when it is cold.
Glass ceramic and steel parts
Remove food residues and grease spatters from the cooking surface using the special scraper
(optional).
Then clean the area using SIDOL, STAHLFIX or a similar product and a paper towel.
Do not use sponge scourers or chemical detergents.
Burners and pan supports
These parts can be removed for easier cleaning.
The burners must be washed with a sponge and soapy water or with a mild detergent, dried thoroughly
and lodged in their seat perfectly.
Make sure that the burner cap holes are not clogged.
Ensure the safety valve probe and ignition electrode are always perfectly clean to ensure optimal
operation.
The pan supports can be washed in a dishwasher.
