Operation; Switching On; Operation Indicator; Electronic Flame Detection And Automatic Re-Ignition - Gaggenau VG 295 Instrucciones De Uso

Operation

The markings show the position of the corresponding
burner and the setting between high and low heat. The
flame setting is infinitely variable between high and
low heat.
Notes
‒ Only light a burner if all pan supports and burner
parts are properly assembled.
‒ Make sure the burners and electrodes are clean
and dry.
‒ Only use the recommended accessories. Do not
cover the stainless steel cooktop base (e.g. with
aluminium foil).
‒ Do not cover the air inlet at the back of the
cooktop.
Caution! Heat damage to the extractor hood: Always
switch on the extractor hood while the gas cooktop is
in use. When using several cooking positions select a
higher fan level on the extractor hood. Make sure there
is a sufficient ventilation of the room.

Switching on

Your cooktop features automatic fast ignition.
1 Place a suitable pot or pan on the corresponding
cooking position.
2 Press down the corresponding control knob and
turn it anticlockwise to the required position. The
burner lights automatically.
The flame size can be set continuously between high
and low by slowly turning the control knob.
Notes
‒ When using large pots or pans you should ignite
the burner in the low position.
‒ Every time the gas hob is switched on, the
electronics run an auto test. All electrodes fire
and the required burner ignites after a few
seconds. When switching on further burners, only
the corresponding electrode fires.
‒ When being switched on, a short sound may be
heard when the electronic of the gas hob opens
the gas supply valve. This is a normal condition.
‒ The cooktop cannot be used during a power
failure.

Operation indicator

The operation indicator next to the control knob
comes on, if the burner is switched on and the flame
burns correctly. If a malfunction occurs the operation
indicator will flash.
Electronic flame detection and
automatic re-ignition
For your safety the cooktop features electronic flame
monitoring. Should the flame go out during operation
(e.g. because of a draught), the appliance will
automatically re-ignite the burner.
Should the re-ignition be unsuccessful (e.g. burner is
soiled by spilled over food or liquid), all burners are
switched off, the indicator lights of the burners that
were switched on flash.
Turn all control knobs to the OFF position. The
flashing indicator lights will go out except for the
affected burner. This indicator will continue to flash
for a few seconds.
After the appliance has cooled down sufficiently,
check this burner to see if all the burner parts have
been assembled correctly. Check if the burner or the
electrode has been soiled (see trouble shooting
guide).
Note: If a malfunction occurs on one burner, you can
continue using the remaining burners, however, you
must turn all control knobs to the off-position first,
before recommencing.
Please note when switching on the cold appliance
on the HIGH setting:
Depending on the gas type and pressure, it is
possible that the electrode continues to fire, although
there is a flame visible, and then switches off. Turn all
control knobs to the OFF position. Then turn the
control knob for the required cooking position to any
setting except the high position and leave to warm up
for 30 to 60 seconds. Then you can continue to use
your appliance as usual.

Switching off

Turn the corresponding control knob clockwise to the
OFF position.
The electronics of the appliance switch the gas supply
off, if all control knobs are in the off position.
