LIGHTING THE GAS BURNERS

Gas burnersThe flow of gas to the burners is regulated by the controls knobs. Depending on the model, the graphic symbols are printed on the knobs or the control panel (Fig. 10). The indicator symbols are:

Valve closed, no gas flow Maximum capacity, maximum gas flow Minimum capacity, minimum gas flow

Turning On and OffEach control knob is clearly marked with the burner that it controls.

Lighting with electronic ignitionThese models are identified with the symbol near to the symbol (maximum flow).To light one or more burners, press and turn the knob to maximum flow and hold it down until the burner is lit; turn the knob until the desired flame is obtained.

Note:If it is difficult to light the burner with the knob in the maximum position because of local gas flow, we recommend repeating the operation with the knob turned to a lower level.

Lighting without electronic ignitionTo turn on burners without electric ignition, or when there is no electrical power in models with ignition, place a flame near to the upper part of the burner, press and turn the knob anti-clockwise so that it points to the symbol on the panel. To turn the burner off, turn the knob clockwise until it points directly upwards.

Burners with safety valvesSome models have safety valves which automatically interrupts gas flow should the flame be extinguished for any reason.Turn the gas control knob to maximum and then press and hold it down for about 4 to 5 seconds.Release the knob and adjust the flame by turning the knob until it reaches the desired intensity.

Warning:Do not activate the electronic ignition for longer than 15 seconds.If it still has not lit after this time, wait for 1 minute before repeating the operation

Dual Control Wok BurnersCooktops fitted with Dual control wok burners have the latest in gas cooking burner technology.Dual control means that the burner can be used for a variety of cooking applications. One control operates the gas flow to the centre burner for simmering and low heat and the other control operates the outer ring for large vessels and woks. The burners operate independently of each other and can operated separately or in tandem for maximum output.

USING THE GAS COOKTOP

Pan supports (trivets)The trivets were designed to make the cooktop easy and safe to use. We recommend checking their exact position and stability on the cooktop before each use. Furthermore, check that the supporting rubbers are integral and correctly positioned.

Small vessel support (Fig.8)Only use the auxiliary burner ring (the smallest) for vessels with a small diameter to prevent them from tipping and to maximise efficiency.

WOK Burner stand (Fig.9 optional – design may vary to image)Only use the wok stand for WOKs (concave bases). In order to avoid serious burner malfunction, we recommend using the wok stand at all times for Woks with curved bases but do not use it for vessels with flat bottoms.

Choosing the burnerChoosing the most adapt burner depends on the vessels’ diameter and capacity (see table).It is important that the pan’s diameter matches the burner power to maximise efficiency.

GAS COOKTOP INSTALLATION

Installation on the kitchen benchThe cooktop can be installed on materials as long as they are heat-resistant (minimum temperature 100°C). Clearances from combustable surfaces must be 120mm all around to comply with AS5601 regulations.

The size of the hole to be cut into the kitchen bench and the minimum distance between the back, side and overhead walls are shown in figures 12, 13, 14, and 15.

Note that:

  1. When the cooktop is installed over a vacant cavity (ie without oven below) a separate panel must be installed beneath the underside of the cooktop base at a distance of at least 10 mm.
  2. When the cooktop is installed over an oven a divider panel at a minimum distance of 15mm is required, and following the oven supplier’s instructions, maintaining ventilation as specified in fig. 19.
  3. The electrical connection of the two appliances must be carried out separately.
  4. We recommend the use of ovens equipped with forced internal cooling such as all models from Glem and Emilia.

Fixing the cooktop

The cooktop is to be fixed to the bench as follows:

  1. Place the sealing gasket supplied along the outside edge of the hole cut into the bench so that the ends of the strips are perfectly joined without overlapping.
  2. Position the cooktop into the hole in the bench making sure it is centered.
  3. Attach the cooktop to the bench with the supplied mounts as shown in fig. 16.
  4. When the sealing gasket is correctly installed, it will protect the cooktop from intrusion of liquids.

Connecting the gasThe instructions are for a qualified installer.The appliance must be installed correctly, conforming to the laws in force.Remove the electrical power supply before servicing the appliance.

Gas Inlet Connection PointModel SEC64 – 519mm from left hand edge of cut out, 40mm from rear edge.Model FC64,SEC75, F74, F75 – 215mm from left hand edge of cut out, 40mm from rear edge

Model FC95 – 799mm from left hand edge of cut out, 40mm from rear edgeThese technical instructions have been prepared for the use by Authorised persons. The requirements of the local Gas and Electrical authorities must be adhered to, consult AG601/AS5601 as appropriate.

  • Before installation, make sure that the gas type (natural gas and LPG) and the cooktop are compatible. To do this, check the data on the product plate on the cooktop and on this booklet.
  • Gas inlet fitting is ½” BSP (male) thread.
  • The gas connection is identified in table figure 7A.
  • Fit regulator supplied for natural gas or supplied LPG test point (as applicable)
  • It is recommended that an isolating valve and union be fitted, to enable simple disconnection for servicing. These are to be in an accessible location.
  • Check connections are gas tight with soapy water or other approved method

Flexible Hose ConnectionInstall with a hose assembly that complies with AS/NZ1869 (AGA Approved). 10mm ID class Bor D and in accordance with AS5601. This hose must not exceed 1.2m in length. Ensure that the hose does not contact the hot surfaces of the cooktop or oven or any other appliance that may be installed underneath or adjacent to the cooktop. The hose must not be subject to contact from drawers, abrasion or kinking. All joints must be checked for leakage using soapy water.

Final CheckOperate the burners on high and low flames and check that each burner ignites properly and has a stable flame. The following may be abnormal:

  • If the burners have yellow tipping
  • If the pots are sooting underneath
  • If the burners fail to ignite properly
  • If the burners fail to remain alight

When satisfied with the operation of the cooktop please explain to the user the correct method of operation. If the appliance can not be adjusted to operate correctly refer to Glem Gas for further assistance.

CONVERSION TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS

Should the cooktop need to be converted to a gas different to the one it was intended for, the injectors must be replaced.It there are no spare injectors supplied they can be obtained from Glem Gas Service.The injectors are to be installed according to the table on the underside of the cooktop.Injectors can be identified by the diameter expressed in hundredths of mm printed on the injector itself.

Modify the inlet gas supply as required and fit either the Natural gas regulator or LPG test point as appropriate.

Replacing the injectors

  1. Remove the gas rings and burner caps from the cooktop.
  2. Using a face spanner, replace injectors “J” (fig. 20) with those specified for the gas to be used.
  3. Reassemble the burners. The burners do not require primary air regulation

Regulating the minimumHaving replaced the injectors, ignite the burner and remove the control knob. Turn the knob to minimum, insert a screw driver and rotate screw to decrease the flame or unscrew it to increase the flame. (fig. 20)

The result should be a small constant flame which is even all around the burner crown. Finally, check that the flame does not go off when quickly turning the valve from maximum to minimum. On cooktop fitted with flame failure devices, check that the flame slightly brushes the thermocouple. Check correct regulation by leaving the burner on for a few minutes. If it goes off, increase the minimum.

Gas checks and adjustments – Pressure AdjustmentFirst shut off the gas to the appliance. Remove the sealing screw from the regulator test point or LPG test point at the rear of the cooker and attach a hose from the mamometer to the point.

Turn the gas back and light the largest burner and smallest burner at the maximum setting.Check the pressure and adjust at the regulator if necessary to the settings in the table or on the data plate. For LPG adjust at the regulator at the cylinder. Turn the regulator adjusting screw clockwise to increase the pressure and anti clockwise to reduce the pressure. Refit the test point sealing screw when finished.

CLEANING

To maintain the cooktop it needs to be cleaned after each use once it has cooled down.Never remove the knobs from their housing to clean the cooktop.

Enamel partsAll enamel parts should only be washed with a sponge and soapy water or other specifically non-abrasive products. Dry completely.

Stainless SteelThe stainless steel plate should be cleaned with a damp cloth or with specific stainless steel cleaning products.

After rinsing, dry with soft cloth. Avoid spray cleaners directed onto the graphics and take care when wiping not to damage the printed graphics on the cooktop.

Cast Iron TrivetsWipe the trivets with a damp cloth once they have cooled. Do not use cleaning agents or harsh detergents to clean and dry carefully to prevent spotting or marking. This is important.

BurnersThe burners are made up of two pieces and can be removed and cleaned with suitable products.After cleaning they must be completely dried and replaced exactly into their housings.

  • Models with electrical ignition: make sure that electrode “E” (fig. 21) is always clean.
  • Models with safety devices: clean probe “T” (fig. 21) so that the safety valve works properly. The electrode and the probe must be cleaned carefully.

Afterwards, replace the burners precisely into their housings.To avoid damaging the electric ignition, avoid using it when the burners are not in place.

Ongoing MaintenanceThe cooktop will not need specific maintenance; however, we recommend a full check at least once every two years.

Should the control knobs become tight to turn or there is a smell of gas, close the main valve and call for service. The faulty valve may need to be replaced.
