4.2.1 How gas cooktop PKG3 works

If a cooking zone is switched on, the flame generates heat,

which directly heats the base of the cookware. The gas flame

is controlled by a highly accurate electronic gas control system

(e-gas system). Among other things, servomotors are used to

accurately control each gas burner. These servomotors calibrate

themselves from time to time and typical humming noises

can be heard that are totally normal and do not constitute a

malfunction.

The advantage of this electronic gas control system is the

optimum, repeatable heat regulation, which means that the

selected power levels are identical in every cooking session. In

addition, a clean, constantly increasing flame is formed at every

power level. Furthermore, if necessary, it can be automatically

reignited. This control ensures that the numerous operating

functions of the cooktop can be adjusted using the control

knobs. The power is controlled via power levels 1–9 and P.

Power levels

The power output of gas cooktops results in food being heated

quickly. In order to avoid burning food, slight adjustment is

needed in comparison to conventional cooking systems when

selecting the power level.

Activity Power levels

Keeping cooked meals warm

–

Browning chopped vegetables, fried eggs, veal,

poultry

–

Tab. 4.2 Recommendations for power levels

The specifications provided in the table are standard values.

Suitable cookware

Cookware with this symbol is suitable for gas cooktops.

The heating and heat-through times for the cookware

base, as well as the cooking results, are significantly

influenced by the structure and material of the cookware.

Cookware with a thick base ensures more even heat

distribution. In the case of a thin base there is a risk of

the food becoming overheated in places. The cooktop

may also become damaged.

Take special care not to overheat the cookware. The base

may become deformed. For this reason, you should never

heat cookware when empty.

Cookware with an uneven base may tip over. A slight

wobble can never be completely ruled out.

After a sufficient cooling period the indicator will go out

(Temperature < 60°C).

Overheating protection

If the cooktop overheats, the power is reduced or the

cooktop is switched off completely.

The appliance is fitted with overheating protection. The

overheating protection can be triggered if:

cookware is heated up empty;

oil or fat is heated on high power;

a hot cooking zone is switched on again after a power cut.

Whilst the overheating protection is active, one of the following

steps is taken:

the activated power setting is switched back to the previous

level;

the power setting

ßp

can no longer be switched on;

the set power level is reduced;

the cooktop switches off completely.

After a sufficient cooling period, the cooktop can be used again.

Childproofing feature

If a single cooktop is operated without a cooktop

extractor, removal of the knob ring can prevent the

appliance from being switched on accidentally or without

permission.

Suitable cookware is made of:

copper

stainless steel

aluminium

Tab. 4.3 Pan diameters

Only use cookware with a diameter that is within the

given dimensions (see the Suitable cookware chapter). If

the diameter is too large, the hot gases flowing outwards

from under the base may damage the worktop or any

non-heat-resistant wall, e.g. with panelling, as well as

part of the cooktop and the cooktop extractor. Bora shall

not be held liable for any such damage.

4.3 Safety devices
