FAQs

How do I ignite the hob burners?

Simply press and turn the control knob for the desired burner. The Auto Ignition will light the burner.

What should I do if the flame goes out?

The Flame Failure Device will automatically cut off the gas supply. Relight the burner, and if the issue persists, consult the user manual or contact customer service.

How often should I clean the oven?

Clean the oven after each use to prevent spills from burning on. Use the catalytic liners regularly to keep the oven clean.

Can I use any type of cookware on the hob?

Yes, but ensure the cookware is suitable for gas hobs and that the base of the pan is flat for optimal heat transfer.

What is the warranty period?

The manufacturer's guarantee covers 10 years for free parts and 1 year for labour.

How do I convert the cooker to LPG?

Follow the instructions in the manual using the provided LPG conversion kit. If unsure, contact a qualified gas engineer.
