Operation; Switching On; Electronic Flame Detection And Automatic Re-Ignition; Switching Off - Gaggenau VG 414 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 the pan support 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 underneath the pan
support.
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 pan support.
2 Press down the 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. The electrode fires
and the burner ignites after a few seconds.
‒ When being switched on, a short sound may be
heard when the electronics of the gas hob open
the gas supply valve. This is normal.
‒ The cooktop cannot be used during a power
failure.

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), the gas supply is
switched off and a signal is sounded.
The flashing indicator lights will go out except for the
affected burner. This indicator will continue to flash
for a few seconds.
Turn the control knob to the OFF position. 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).
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 the
control knob to the OFF position and then to the LOW
setting. Leave to warm up for 30 to 60 seconds after
ignition. Then you can continue to use your appliance
as usual.

Switching off

Fully turn the control knob to the OFF position. The
electronics of the appliance switches the gas supply
off.
m
Risk of burns!
When the appliance cover is closed, heat will
accumulate. Only close the appliance cover when the
appliance has cooled down. Never switch the
appliance on with the appliance cover closed. Do not
rest food on the appliance cover or use it to keep food
warm.

Safety shut-off

For your protection, the appliance has a safety shut-off
feature. The appliance switches off after six hours if it
is not operated during this time.
Even after a power outage, the appliance stays
switched off. A prolonged audible signal is sounded.
Turn the control knob to 0. You can then operate the
appliance in the way to which you are accustomed.
