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:
To identify the type of burner, please refer to the
diagrams contained in the “Burner and nozzle
specifications”.
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 .
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 , the maximum setting
or any position in between the two.
If the appliance is fitted with
an electronic lighting device*
(X), 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.
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*(C), 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 •.
! For models equipped with a reducer grid, the latter must
be used only for the auxiliary burner, when pans with a
diameter of less than 12 cm are used.
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.
1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the
SELECTOR knob.
2. Select the recommended temperature for the
cooking mode or the desired temperature by turning the
THERMOSTAT knob.
A list detailing cooking modes and suggested cooking
temperatures can be found in the relevant table (see Oven
cooking advice table).
During cooking it is always possible to:
• Change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR
knob.
• Change the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT
knob.
• Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the “0”
position.
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.
THERMOSTAT indicator light
When this is illuminated, the oven is generating heat.
It switches off when the inside of the oven reaches the
selected temperature. At this point the light illuminates and
switches off alternately, indicating that the thermostat is
working and is maintaining the temperature at a constant
level.
Oven light
This is switched on by turning the SELECTOR knob to any
position other than “0”. It remains lit as long as the oven
is operating. By selecting
with the knob, the light is
switched on without any of the heating elements being
activated.
