Switching On Automatically; Safety System; Switching Off A Burner; Power Levels - Bosch PCC6 B Série Notice D'utilisation

Switching on automatically

If your hob can be switched on automatically (ignition sparkers):
Press the chosen burner control knob and turn it
1.
anticlockwise to the maximum power setting.
While the control knob is still pressed down, sparks are
produced on all burners. The flame ignites.
Release the control knob.
2.
Turn the control knob to the required setting.
3.
If it does not come on, turn the control knob to the off setting
and repeat the steps above. This time, press and hold the
control knob for longer (up to 10 seconds).
:
Risk of deflagration!
If after 15 seconds the flame does not ignite, switch off the
burner and open a nearby window or door. Wait at least one
minute before trying to switch the burner back on.

Safety system

Depending on the model, your hob may have a safety system
(thermocouple) that prevents the flow of gas if the burners
accidentally switch off.
To ensure that this device is active:
Switch on the burner as usual.
1.
Without releasing the control knob, press and hold it down
2.
firmly for 4 seconds after lighting the flame.

Switching off a burner

Turn the corresponding control knob clockwise to the 0 setting.

Power levels

The progressive control knobs can be used to control the
power needed, from minimum to maximum power.
Setting Û Control knob off
High flame — Maximum capacity or aperture and elec-
tricity on
˜
Low flame Minimum capacity or aperture
For dual double-flame burners, the inner and outer flames can be
controlled separately. The available power levels are as follows:
Inner and outer flame on full
power.
Outer flame on minimum, inner
flame on full power.

Main switch/Hob lock (Main Switch)

The hob may have a main switch to cut off the mains gas
supply and switch off all the burners at the same time. This
switch is very practical if there are children in the house or, if for
any reason, all the burners must be switched off quickly.
To lock the hob:
Press the main switch.
This switches off all the burners which are on. The hob is locked.
To unlock the hob:
Turn all the control knobs to the "off" position.
1.
Press the main switch and turn it fully clockwise.
2.
The mains gas supply is turned on. You can now use your hob
normally.

Warnings

It is normal to hear a soft whistling noise while the burner is
operating.
When first used, it is normal for the burner to give off odours.
This does not pose any risk and does not indicate a
malfunction. They will disappear in time.
An orange-coloured flame is normal. This is caused by the
presence of dust in the atmosphere, spilt liquids, etc.
If the burner flames are accidentally blown out, switch off the
burner operating control knob and do not try to relight it for at
least 1 minute.
A few seconds after the burner is switched off, a sound (thud)
will be produced. This is not a fault - this means that the safety
device is no longer operating.
Keep the burner as clean as possible. If the ignition sparkers
are dirty they will not light properly. Clean them periodically
using a small non-wire brush. Bear in mind that the ignition
sparkers must not suffer any serious impacts.
Inner flame on full power.
Inner flame on minimum
power.
