Do NOT set it between OFF and HIGH. · After use, always turn the control knob fully clockwise to the gas off position. NOTE: · If the burner has not lit after 15 seconds--or in the event of a burner flame being accidentally extinguished--turn off the burner control and wait for at least one minute before reigniting it. · You can use matches to light a burner in the event of a power failure. 24 AFTER SALES SUPPORT AUS 1300 886 649 info@tempo.org MODEL: STR-SGC60 PRODUCT CODE: 700793 04/2020 Instructions (Cont.) Flame failure feature · Each burner on this gas cooktop is fitted with a flame failure safety device, which is designed to stop the flow of gas to the burner head in the event of the flame going out. To ensure the flame stays lit, you must hold down the control knob for approximately 15 seconds before releasing it. · Gas cooktops with a flame failure safety device (Fig. 15) have ignition spark electrodes (ignitors: A) and flame failure probes (thermocouples: B), which need to be kept clean for proper operation (refer to the "Care and cleaning" section). Fig. 15 B A Trivets and auxiliary pan support · The trivets fit over the burners as pictured below (Fig. 16). · The auxiliary pan support may be placed on top of the trivet when using a small pot or pan (Fig. 17).

Cooking on the gas cooktop Pots and pans · In order to avoid unnecessary energy use, it is important to use appropriately sized pots and pans for each burner (Table 2 and Fig. 18). Table 3 R: Rapid burner Appropriate pan size 2024cm SR: Semirapid burner 1618cm Fig. 18 SR SR A: Auxiliary burner 1216cm R A · Make sure your pot/pan has a flat base so that it sits on the trivet properly and does not rock (Fig. 19). Fig. 19 · Use appropriately sized cookware for the burner and adjust the flame height so it heats the underside of the pot/pan. Having the flame too high will waste gas and possibly cause damage to the handle (Fig. 20). Fig. 20 26 AFTER SALES SUPPORT AUS 1300 886 649 info@tempo.org MODEL: STR-SGC60 PRODUCT CODE: 700793 04/2020 Instructions (Cont.) · Make sure your pot/pan has a flat base so that it sits on the trivet properly and does not rock (Fig. 21). · Position your pot/pan properly on the trivets above the burners. Do not use saucepans that overlap the boundaries of the cooktop, otherwise heat may get deflected towards the cooktop or benchtop, which could deteriorate these surfaces; see Fig. 21 for optimum placement. Fig. 21 Heat deflected towards benchtop Heat extended beyond base of pan · Only ever use the burners after placing pots and pans on them. Do not heat up any empty pots or pans. · Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes on the cooktop. · Preferably cover pots and pans with a lid to permit cooking at a lower heat. When the contents start boiling, turn the knob down to the LOW position. · Always switch off the burner before removing the pot/ pan. · Do not place anything, for example a flame tamer or asbestos mat, between the pan and trivet as it may result in serious damage to the appliance (Fig. 22-A). · Do not remove the trivet and enclose the burner with a wok stand as this will concentrate and deflect the heat onto the cooktop surface (Fig. 22-B). · Do not use large pots or heavy weights which can bend the trivet or deflect the flame onto the cooktop surface (Fig. 22-C). Fig. 22-A Fig. 22-B Fig. 22-C AFTER SALES SUPPORT AUS 1300 886 649 info@tempo.org MODEL: STR-SGC60 PRODUCT CODE: 700793 04/2020 27 Instructions (Cont.) Safe cooking · Do not use large cloths, tea towels or similar as the ends could touch the flames and catch fire. · Use heat-resistant pot holders or oven mitts when handling hot cookware. · Do not let pot holders or oven mitts cove near open flames when lifting cookware. · Take care not to let pot holders or oven mitts get damp or wet, as this causes heat to transfer through the material quicker with the risk of burning yourself. · When using glass cookware, make sure it is designed for hotplate cooking. · To minimise the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware handles towards the sides or centre of the cooktop without extending over adjacent burners. · When using other electrical appliances, ensure the cable does not come into contact with the appliance surfaces of the cooking appliance. · When boiling food, use as little water as possible to reduce cooking times. · Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking. · Always heat fat slowly and watch as it heats. · Carefully watch foods being fried at a high flame setting. · Foods to be fried should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan. · Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is completely cool. · Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of the appliance while it is in use. · Do not store perishable food, plastic items or aerosols above or below the appliance as these items may be affected by heat. · Do not store flammable materials near the appliance. CAUTION! · It is not recommended to use roasting pans, frypans or grill stones heated simultaneously on several burners because the resulting heat build-up may damage the appliance. · To avoid scalding, do not touch the cooktop surface or trivets while in use and for some time afterwards: the surfaces are hot. 28 AFTER SALES SUPPORT AUS 1300 886 649 info@tempo.org MODEL: STR-SGC60 PRODUCT CODE: 700793 04/2020 FAQs & Troubleshooting Guide If you experience problems with your gas cooktop, or it appears not to be operating correctly, check the information below for solutions to common problems.

Cleaning the cooktop To ensure food safety and keep the cooktop in good working order, clean it regularly after each use. Stainless steel top plate · Although it is easier to clean some deposits whilst the hob surface is still warm, make sure that the hob surface, trivets and hob burners have all cooled sufficiently before you attempt to touch them. · Regularly wipe over the top plate using a soft cloth, well wrung-out in warm water to which a little washing up liquid has been added. Dry the cooktop with a clean, dry cloth after cleaning. · Thoroughly remove salty food residues or liquids from the hob as soon as possible to avoid the risk of corrosion. · Stainless steel parts of the appliance may become discoloured over time. This is normal because of the high temperatures they are exposed to. We therefore recommend using an appropriate stainless steel cleaner and polish regularly on the stainless steel surfaces. · The control knobs may be removed for thorough cleaning, if necessary, just pull them off the shaft. After cleaning, push them firmly back into position, taking care not to damage the seal. 30 AFTER SALES SUPPORT AUS 1300 886 649 info@tempo.org MODEL: STR-SGC60 PRODUCT CODE: 700793 04/2020 Other Useful Information (Cont.) Enamelled parts · Remove the trivets (Fig. 23: A) and burner caps (B) from the cooktop and clean them the same way as the cooktop surface: with a soft cloth wrung out in warm, soapy water. · Remove tough stains from enamelled parts using a nonabrasive liquid detergent or a creamy cleanser suitable for cleaning vitreous enamel.
