Adjusting Stovetop; Turning On; Indicator Light; Electronic Flame Monitoring And Automatic Re-Ignition - Gaggenau VG 295 CA Guide D'utilisation Et D'entretien

Adjusting stovetop

The markings on the control knobs show you the
position of the respective burner and output from full
to low flame. Output is steplessly adjustable.
Notes
‒ Only ignite cooking zones once the pan supports
and all burner parts are correctly positioned.
‒ Burners and electrodes must be clean and dry.
‒ Only use the specified accessories. Do not line
stainless steel stovetop (e.g. with aluminum foil).
‒ Don't cover the ventilation openings on the rear
side of the gas stovetop.
,
CAUTION: Heat damage to the range hood:
Turn on a range hood when the gas stovetop is
in operation. An appropriately high-output range
hood must be selected for using multiple
cooking zones. Provide for sufficient supply air.

Turning on

Your gas stovetop has an automatic quick start
feature.
1
Place an suitable pot or pan on the desired
burner.
2
Press down the appropriate control knob and turn
it left to the desired position. The burner ignites
automatically.
By slowly turning the control knob, the flame size can
be steplessly adjusted between full and low flame.
Notes
‒ If you have large pots on the cooking zones, you
should ignite at low flame.
‒ With each activation of the stovetop, the
electronics perform a self-test. All electrodes
ignite and the desired burner ignites after a few
seconds. If you turn on more burners, only the
respective electrode ignites.
‒ When turning on the stovetop, the electronics
open the gas supply, which causes a small noise.
This is normal.
‒ The appliance does not work in the event of a
power failure.

Indicator light

The indicator light next to the control knob lights up
when the burner is in operation and the flame is
burning. The indicator light blinks in case of a
malfunction.
Electronic flame monitoring and
automatic re-ignition
For your safety, the stove is equipped with an
electronic flame monitoring system. If the flame goes
out during operation (e.g. through a draft of air), the
appliance automatically re-ignites the burner.
Should the re-ignition prove unsuccessful (e.g. grime
on burner due to spillage), the appliance turns off all
burners and the indicator lights of the activated
cooking zones flash.
Turn all control knobs to 0. The blinking indicator
lights go out except for the indicator of the burner
concerned. It continues blinking for a few seconds.
Wait until the appliance has cooled down sufficiently
and then check if all parts of the burner are correctly
in place. Check whether the burner or electrode is
dirty (see malfunction table).
Note:
In the event of a burner malfunction, you can
continue to use the other burners, but only once all
control knobs are turned to 0.
Please bear in mind if you turn the cold appliance
on to maximum:
Depending on the gas type and pressure used, the
electrode may ignite, even though there is already a
flame, and then turn off. Turn all control knobs to 0.
Then turn the control knob of the desired cooking
zone to a lower position (not maximum) and wait 30 -
60 seconds until the burner has heated up. Now you
can use your appliance as usual.

Turning off

Turn the desired control knob right, as far as it will go,
to position 0.
If all control knobs are turned to 0, the appliance
electronics close the gas supply.
