Child Safety During Operation This product is intended for the cooking of food and must not be used for other purposes. It is dangerous to modify, or attempt to modify, the characteristics of this appliance. Unstable or deformed pans should not be placed on the burners or plates in order to avoid accidents caused by upsetting or boiling over. Particular care should be taken when cooking with oil or fat. If the appliance is fitted with a cover, its function is to protect the surface from dust when closed and to accumulate splashes of grease when open. Do not use for other purposes. Always clean the cover before closing. Leave the burners and/or plates to cool before closing. All the covers, in plate glass or enamel, are removable to facilitate cleaning. Always ensure that the knobs are in the « » (Stop) position when the appliance is not in use. Always insert the dripping pan when using the grill or when cooking meat on the grid. Pour a little water into the dripping pan to avoid grease burning and creating unpleasant smells. Always use oven gloves to remove dishes from the oven. The accessories (grid and dripping pan) should be washed before using for the first time. Take care when using cleaning products in spray form: never direct the spray onto the resistance or the thermostat bulb. If, when placing food in the oven, or when removing it, a large quantity of oil, juice, etc. spills onto the bottom of the oven, re-clean before starting to cook to avoid unpleasant smoke and also the possibility of these substances catching fire. For reasons of hygiene and safety this appliance must always be kept clean. A build up of grease or other food can cause fires. The gas oven becomes hot with the movement of air. The holes on the bottom of the oven must never be obstructed. Do not cover the sides of the oven with aluminium foil, in particular the lower part of the opening. The appliance is heavy, move it carefully. Before maintenance and cleaning disconnect the appliance and allow to cool. To facilitate ignition, light the burners before placing pans on the grid. After having lit the burners check that the flame is regular. Always lower the flame or turn it off before removing the pan. Ensure that the oven grids are inserted correctly. If there are self-cleaning panels they should only be cleaned with soap and water (see cleaning instructions). Only heat-resistant plates may be placed in the drawer situated under the oven.Do not put combustible materials there. In case of repairs, do not attempt to correct yourself.

The regulation knobs should be turned in three main positions: Symbols l No gas supply Maximum gas supply Minimum gas supply F l l Ignition of gas burners Fig. 2 FO 2063 To ignite a burner, before positioning the saucepan: Press the electronic ignition button so as to obtain sparks. Keep the button pressed until a flame appears (sparks are produced approximately once per second). At the same time, push the Control Knob inwards and turn it anti-clockwise to its maximum setting, keeping the Control Knob pressed in. Should the bumer extinguish, repeat the operation, maintaining the Control Knob pressed for 15 seconds, maximum. Now adjust the Control Knob to the setting desired. When lighting the hob manually: Hold a flame near the burner. Never turn the Control Knob before approaching the burner with the flame. Fig. 3 FO 0204 l l A - Burner cap B - Burner crown C - Ignition candle If after a few attempts the burner does not ignite, check that the burner crown and cap (fig. 3 - A and B) are correctly positioned. To interrupt the supply of gas, turn the knob in a clockwise direction to the position " ". During cooking, when using fats or oils, take particular care as they can, when overheated, self-ignite. Recommended pottery Remember that a wide-bottomed pan allows a faster cooking than a narrow one. Always use pots which properly fit what you have to cook. Particularly make sure that the pans are not too small for liquids, since these could easily overflow. Moreover, the pans should not be too large for a faster cooking. In fact, grease and juices may spread on the bottom and burn easily. It is better to use non-openable moulds for baking cakes. In fact, an openable mould lets juices and sugar leak through, falling on the bottom of the oven and consequently burning on the bottom of the baking tray, making cleaning difficult. Avoid putting plastic-handled pans in the oven as they are not heat-proof. Fig. 4 You should use oans with the right diameter to fit the burner, in order to make the most out of it, thus reducing gas consumption as in Fig. 4. It is also advisable to cover any boiling casserole and, as soon as the liquid starts boiling, lower the flame enough to keep the boiling point. 55 Using the oven FGas oven l l Automatic Ignition Push the Oven/Grill Control Knob (fig. 5) inwards and turn it anti-clockwise to its maximum setting ("MAX") keeping the Control Knob pressed in. At the same time, press the electronic ignition button so as to obtain sparks. Keep the button pressed until a flame appears (sparks are produced approximately once per second). Once a flame has appeared, hold the Control Knob pressed in for around 5 seconds so as to activate the Oven Safety Device (Thermocouple). Should the bumer extinguish, repeat the operation, maintaining the Control Knob pressed for 15 seconds, maximum. Now adjust the Control Knob to the setting desired. When cooking with the oven, the lid must be kept open to avoid over-heating. When lighting the oven manually: Hold a flame near the burner. 140 AX M 16 l 0 l Fig. 5 FO 2677 l Electric grill Press and turn the knob clockwise until the stop position , at the same time the grill control light is reached will come on. Place the dripping pan under the wire shelf so as to prevent fat from dripping on the bottom of the oven. Spit Spit forks Cooking with the turnspit (fig. 6) Some models are equipped with a turnspit (fig.6). For correct use, proceed as follows: slide the spit into the food to be cooked and secure well; place the spit on the support and slide the whole into the third runner from the bottom of the oven cavity (fig. 7); insert the end of the spit into the rotisserie motor housing (the orifice in the wall at the back of the oven - see fig. 7); remove the spit handle; turn the oven knob to the "grill" position or, when required for some models, turn on the motor by means of the appropriate switch, placed on the control panel. Fig. 6 Removable spit handle Oven accessories The oven is supplied with an enamelled dripping pan for the collection of cooking juices from grilled meat or kebabs, and a grill for cooking grilled food, which can also be placed in a dish.

When cooking in the oven or grill, in order to avoid over-heating, always leave the appliances cover open. 100 50 Thermostat control light (°C) Once the oven temperature has been selected, the temperature light will come on and remain on until the oven has reached the correct setting; after that, it will go on and off with the thermostat, showing how the temperature is being maintained. Fig. 9 FO 1114 When using the oven for the first time a) set the thermostat knob to MAX; - electric oven: switch the oven function control knob to conventional cooking ( ); b) allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45 minutes; c) open a window for ventilation. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is absolutely normal, and is caused by residues of manufacturing. Once this operation is carried out, let the oven cool down, then clean the oven cavity with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water. Before cooking for the first time, carefully wash the grid and the dripping pan. F When using the oven for the first time: 0 20 57 150 Suggestions for gas burners Start your cooking with a big flame by turning the knob to the symbol . Then adjust the flame as necessary. The outside of the flame is much hotter than its inside (nucleus). Accordingly , the top of the flame should lick the bottom of the pan. Excessive flames mean a waste of gas. In contrast with electric grids, gas burners do not require flat-bottomed pans: the flames lick the bottom and spread the heat all over the surface. No special pans are required for gas burners. However, thinwalled pans transmit the heat to the food more quickly than thick-walled ones. Since heat doesn't spread evenly on the pan's bottom, the food may only be partially heated. Consequently it is advisable to stir the food many times. A thick ...
