III . OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1.
OPEN GAS BURNERS
The open gas burner incorporates a cover made of chrome 
nickel steel, a gas burner with ignition monitoring, and a finned 
pan rest. The finned pan rest  is easily removed for cleaning.
The open burners can be operated from one side, or for half of 
the burners, from both sides of the range in question.
The outputs of the burners is 10 kW each. 
Accessories:
HOTPLATE
The plate is laid on the finned burner pan rest. It can achieve 
high temperatures and is therefore suitable for both boiling and 
roasting. Several small saucepans can be placed on it. It has a 
higher heat storage capacity than the open burner.
It is used to keep food hot that has been cooked on the open 
burner. The output of the burner is accordingly low. Do not use 
this plate for main cooking or frying activities. The maximum 
temperature of the empty simmering plate may rise to 400°C.
1.1
PUTTING THE APPLIANCE INTO OPERATION
Before operating, check that the pilot burner and the burner 
cover are clean. Clean if necessary.
1.2
OPERATION
The rotary switch (2) has 4 main positions:
D
Push the rotary switch (2 / Fig. 10) in and simultaneously 
turn it anti-clockwise about 90° to the stop. 
 
In the case of liquid gas operation, also open the cylinder 
or tank valve.
1.2.1
IGNITING THE PILOT BURNER
D
Push the rotary switch (2 / Fig. 10) fully in.
D
Turn it anti-clockwise to the pilot burner ignition position 
(
).
D
Push the rotary switch (2 / Fig. 10) fully in and hold it there.
D
At the same time, ignite the gas escaping at the pilot 
burner.
D
After lighting the pilot burner, keep the rotary switch 
pushed in for about 15 seconds.
 
It is only after this period of time that the pilot light will burn 
after the rotary switch is released. If the pilot light goes out 
again, repeat the whole process.
1.2.2
IGNITING THE MAIN BURNER
D
Turn the rotary switch (2 / Fig. 10) anti-clockwise from the 
pilot burner ignition position (
) to the high setting ( ).
 
The high setting ( ) corresponds to the maximum burner 
output or rated thermal load.
1.2.3
REGULATION
The intensity of the flame can be adjusted between the “high 
position” ( )and the “low position” ( ).
D
Push the rotary switch (2 / Fig. 10) fully in and turn it anti-
clockwise from the high setting ( ) towards the low setting 
( ).
 
The flames get smaller and smaller.
 
The main burner has the lowest output at the low setting 
( ).
D
To go back towards the high setting ( ) from the low set-
ting ( ), push the rotary switch (2 / Fig. 10) fully in and turn 
it clockwise.
1.2.4
SWITCHING OFF THE OVEN
1.2.4.1 MAIN BURNER
D
Turn the rotary switch (2 / Fig. 10) back clockwise from the 
high setting ( ) to pilot burner ignition (
).
 
The gas supply to the main burner is stopped and the main 
flame is shut down. The flame of the pilot burner, however, 
keeps on burning and is available for further main burner 
ignitions.
1.2.4.2 PILOT BURNER FLAME
D
Push the rotary switch (2 / Fig. 10) fully in and turn it clock-
wise from pilot burner ignition (
) to Off (
).
 
The complete gas supply is cut off and the pilot light goes 
out.
1.2.4.3 BURNERS
D
Set all rotary switches to Off (
).
 
All burners are switched off.
1.2.5
LONG SHUT-DOWNS
D
When operating with liquid gas, turn off the cylinder or tank 
valve.
2.
CLEANING
The cleaning tasks described below have to be carried out 
once or twice a week. Components that are especially suscep-
tible to soiling, such as burner and pilot burner nozzles, must 
be constantly monitored and immediately cleaned at the onset 
of a blockage. Heavily soiled loose parts, such as sheets, 
grids, simmering plates etc. must always be cleaned outside 
the appliance.
Before being cleaned, the appliance must be switched off and 
allowed to cool.
D
Shut off all the gas taps and control valves on the range.
D
Clean the appliance with commercial cleaning agents. Do 
not use granular or abrasive agents.
