User manual ROSIERES VM 31

[. . . ] If, when installing the hob, the lower hob face is adjacent to an area normally accessible when handling or cleaning, fit a heatproof partition 1 cm below the base of the hob with a 10X10 cm opening at the rear right-hand corner, to avoid any risk of scorching or damage. a foam adhesive is supplied with the hob. Stick this seal under the edge of the body as near as possible to the outer edge of the hob. Press round the edges of the hob, so that the seal flattens out and ensures an air tight seal. [. . . ] Turn and press in the relevant burner control knob to the "+" ( ) symbol, keeping it pressed in until the flame ignites. on models fitted with electronic ignition the flame is ignited by an electric spark. This is operated by the button or by pressing the knob (for models with ignition under the knob). For models not fitted with electronic ignition, or if there is no electric power, light the flame with a match. NB: for models fitted with the SAFETY thermocouple, keep the knob pressed in for a few seconds in order to activate the safety system. If the knob is released straightaway there is not time for the safety system to be activated and the flame goes out. If this happens, repeat the ignition procedure from the beginning waiting longer after the flame is lit. The rapid thermocouple safety device automatically cuts off the gas supply if the flame is accidentally extinguished. If there are particular local gas supply conditions which make ignition difficult, you are advised to repeat the ignition procedure, turning the knob to "minimum" ( ). The electric hotplates with a red dot in the middle are rapid ones with automatic protection; there is an internal thermostat in these hotplates which automatically reduces the power when an abnormal temperature is detected (for example, when operating empty). THE HIGHLIGHT HOTPLATE: used with glass/ceramic products; it has a metallic laminate which spreads the heat uniformly over the whole area. It heats up in three seconds and allows even and delicate cooking as well as high temperature cooking; power is regulated by the position of the knob (see table below). bEFORE USING THE ELECTRICAL HOT PLATE : · Before using the electric hot plate for the first time, let it heat up for a few minutes, without a pan, at maximum temperature to allow the protective coating to harden. hOW TO USE : · For best results, it is advisable to start on the maximum heat and then turn back to an intermediate temperature taking into account the type and volume of the food. To switch off, turn the knob back to point "0". DIFFERENT TEMPERATURE SETTINGS : Below are a few examples which are given as guidelines. When you become more familiar with the appliance, you will be able to choose settings to suit your own personal tastes and requirements. ON VETROCERAMIC HILIGHT ZONE The residual heat indicator lights up when the hilight zone temperature is 60° C and above. It will stay on, even if the zone is switched off, until the surface has cooled down. It will switch off when the temperature of the surface falls below 60° C. Set the flame according to your cooking requirements. Intermediate positions are available between the "+" ( ) and "-" ( ) settings on the control knob. [. . . ] This is a normal and inevitable phenomenon, but it doesn't jeopardize absolutely the functionality of the hob. In anycase from our after sales service centre the spare parts are available.
