Operating Instructions

Ignition

1. Ensure the gas supply to the cooktop is open.
2. Press down and rotate the desired control knob counter-clockwise to the "High" flame setting.
3. The electronic pulse ignition will automatically spark to ignite the burner.
4. Once the flame is lit, continue to hold the knob down for a few seconds (approximately 3-5 seconds) to allow the flame-out protection thermocouple to heat up and engage.
5. Release the knob. If the flame extinguishes, repeat the process.

Adjusting Flame

After ignition, rotate the control knob to adjust the flame intensity from high to low. The left burner offers a 4.2KW output for gentle stewing, while the right burner provides a 5.2KW output for high-heat stir-frying, allowing for versatile cooking.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your cooktop.

Cleaning the Tempered Glass Surface

• Allow the cooktop to cool completely before cleaning to prevent burns and damage.
• Use a soft cloth and mild detergent to wipe off oil stains and spills.
• Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads that can scratch or damage the glass surface.
• For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive glass cleaner specifically designed for cooktops.

Cleaning Burner Components

• The pan supports and burner caps are detachable for easy cleaning. Remove them once the cooktop is cool.
• Wash these components with warm, soapy water. For baked-on food, they can be soaked briefly.
• Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling them to prevent ignition issues.
• Regularly check burner ports for blockages (e.g., food debris) and clean with a soft brush or a thin wire if necessary.
