User manual SMEG PGF96BE

[. . . ] INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE This manual is an integral part of the appliance. It must be kept in its entirety and in an accessible place for the whole working life of the appliance. We recommend reading this manual and all information it contains carefully before using the appliance. Installation must be carried out by qualified personnel in accordance with the standards in force. [. . . ] You can obtain the addresses of collection, recycling and disposal centres from your retailer or from the competent local organisations. Do not discard the packaging or any part of it, or leave it unattended. It can constitute a suffocation hazard for children, especially the plastic bags. Important: hand over your appliance to the local agency authorised for the collection of electrical appliances no longer in use. Before disposing of your appliance it is important to remove doors and leave shelves in the same position as for use, to ensure that children cannot accidentally become trapped inside during play. It is also necessary to cut the connecting cable to the power grid, removing it along with the plug. 7 Instructions for the user 4. USING THE HOB 4. 1 Lighting the hob burners Before lighting the hob burners, check that the flame-spreader crowns are correctly in place with their respective burner caps, making sure that the holes 1 in the flame-spreaders are aligned with the plugs 3 and thermocouples 2. To prevent damage to the work top, the hob comes complete with a raised pan stand 4: This must be placed under pans with a diameter greater than those indicated in the table in point "4. 3 Cookware diameters". In any case, pans with a diameter greater than 28 cm must be used solely on the central burner. The pan stand 4 can also be used with woks. 4 1 2 3 1 2 3 The burner controlled by each knob is shown next to the knob. Simply press the knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the maximum flame symbol , until the burner lights. On valved models, once the burner is lit, keep the knob pressed for a few seconds to give the thermocouple time to heat up. The burner may go out when the knob is released: in this case, the thermocouple has not heated up sufficiently. Wait a few moments and repeat the operation, keeping the knob pressed for longer. This is not necessary on burners that are not equipped with a thermocouple. Always check that the control knobs are in the O (off) position when you finish using the hob. If the burners should go out accidentally, after about 20 seconds a safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas tap is open. Turn off the control knob and wait at least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner. 8 Instructions for the user 4. 2 Practical tips for using the burners For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption, use pans with a flat, smooth base and a lid that have a suitable size for the burner, thus preventing the flames reaching the sides of the pan (see point "4. 3 Cookware diameters"). Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to prevent the liquid from boiling over. To prevent burns or damage to the hob during cooking, all cookware must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob. Take the greatest care when using fats or oils since they may catch fire if overheated. 4. 3 Cookware diameters HOB BURNERS min and max Ø (in cm) 1 Auxiliary 2 Semi-rapid 3 UR2 12-16 18-24 22-26 1 3 2 1 2 3 4. 3. 1 Cookware diameters with raised pan stand HOB BURNERS min and max Ø (in cm) 1 2 2 3 1 3 1 Auxiliary 2 Semi-rapid 3 UR2 16-26 24-28 26-34 9 Instructions for the user 5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Before performing any operations requiring access to powered parts, disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
