Using the hob

Lighting the burners

For each BURNER knob there is a complete ring

showing the strength of the flame for the relevant

burner.

To light one of the burners on the hob:

1. Bring a flame or gas lighter close to the burner.

2. Press the BURNER knob and turn it in an

anticlockwise direction so that it is pointing to the

maximum flame setting 

E

.

3. Adjust the intensity of the flame to the desired

level by turning the BURNER knob in an

anticlockwise direction. This may be the minimum

setting 

C

, the maximum setting 

E

 or any position in

between the two.

If the appliance is fitted with

an electronic lighting

device* (

see figure

), press

the ignition button, marked

with the symbol 

, then

hold the BURNER knob

down and turn it in an

anticlockwise direction, towards the maximum flame

setting, until the burner is lit.

Several models are equipped with an ignition device

which is built into the knob; in this case the

electronic ignition device* is present (

C

) but the

ignition button is not. Simply press the BURNER

knob and turn it in an anticlockwise direction so that

it is pointing to the maximum flame setting, until the

burner is lit. The burner may be extinguished when

the knob is released. If this occurs, repeat the

operation, holding the knob down for a longer period

of time.

!

 If the flame is accidentally extinguished, switch off

the burner and wait for at least 1 minute before

attempting to relight it.

If the appliance is equipped with a flame failure

safety device*(X), press and hold the BURNER knob

for approximately 2-3 seconds to keep the flame

alight and to activate the device.

To switch the burner off, turn the knob until it

reaches the stop position •.

Practical advice on using the burners

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.

Start-up and use

To identify the type of burner, please refer to the

diagrams contained in the “Burner and nozzle

specifications”.

Using the oven

!

 The first time you use your appliance, heat the

empty oven with its door closed at its maximum

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.

Lighting the oven

To light the oven burner, apply

a lighted match or a lighter to

hole and while pressing in all

the way set the oven knob on

For the minimum to maximum settings turn the knob

counter clockwise from “Off”.

To turn off the burner, turn the knob clockwise until it

stops (corresponding again with setting •).

!

 The oven is fitted with a safety device and it is

therefore necessary to hold the OVEN control knob

down for approximately 6 seconds*.

 If the flame is accidentally extinguished, switch off

the burner and wait for at least 1 minute before

attempting to relight the oven.

Oven light*

The light may be switched on at any moment by

pressing the OVEN LIGHT button.

Timer*

To activate the Timer proceed as follows:

1. Turn the TIMER knob in a clockwise direction 

4

for almost one complete revolution to set the buzzer.

2. Turn the TIMER knob in an anticlockwise direction

5

 to set the desired length of time.

Lower compartment*

There is a compartment

underneath the oven that may

be used to store oven

accessories or deep dishes. To

open the door pull it

downwards (

see figure

).

!

 The internal surfaces of the

compartment (where present) may become hot.

!

 Do not place flammable materials in the lower oven

compartment.

In gas cooker models, there is

a sliding protection layer A

that shields the lower

compartment from the heat

generated by the burner (

see

figure

).

To remove the sliding

protection remove the screw S

(

see figure

). To replace it, lock

it in place with the screw S.

!

 Before using the oven make

sure that the sliding protection

is fixed correctly.
