For the burners to work in the most efficient way

possible and to save on the amount of gas consumed,

it is recommended that only pans that have a lid and a

flat base are used. They should also be suited to the

size of the burner.

 The first time you use your appliance, heat the

empty oven with its door closed at its ma

x

imum

temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the

room is well ventilated before switching the oven off

and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit a

slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective

substances used during the manufacturing process

burning away.

!

 Before operating the product, remove all plastic film

from the sides of the appliance.

!

 Never put objects directly on the bottom of the

oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being

damaged. Only use position 1 in the oven when

cooking with the rotisserie spit.

To light the grill, bring a flame or gas lighter close to

the burner and press the OVEN control knob while

turning it in a clockwise direction until it reaches the 

@

position. The grill enables the surface of food to be

browned evenly and is particularly suitable for roast

dishes, schnitzel and sausages. Place the rack in

position 4 or 5 and the dripping pan in position 1 to

collect fat and prevent the formation of smoke.

If the appliance is fitted with an electronic lighting

device*, press the ignition button, marked with the

symbol

the knob, open the oven door and wait for at least 1

minute before trying to light it again. If there is no

electricity the burner may be lit using a flame or a

lighter, as described above.
