How to Use the Hob Burners
Hob Burners
Each hob burner is controlled by a separate gas
valve operated by a control knob (g. 4) which has 3
positions marked on the control panel, these are:
– Symbol : Tap closed (burner
o)
– Symbol : High (maximum)
– Symbol : Low (minimum)
Push in and turn the knob anti-clockwise to the
selected position.
The maximum aperture position permits rapid boiling
of liquids, whereas the minimum aperture position
allows slower warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of liquids.
To reduce the gas ow to minimum, rotate the knob further anticlockwise to point the indicator
towards the small ame symbol.
Other intermediate operating adjustments can be achieved by positioning the indicator between
the maximum and minimum aperture positions, not between the maximum aperture and closed
positions.
Note: When the hob is not being used, set the gas knobs to their closed positions and also
close the cock valve on the gas bottle or the main gas supply line.
Lighting of the Hob Burners
To ignite the burner, the following instructions are to be followed:
1. Press in the corresponding knob and turn counter-clockwise to the full ame position marked
by the
symbol (g. 4) and hold the knob in until the ame has been lit.
In the case of a mains failure light the burner with a match or lighted taper.
2. Wait about ten seconds after the gas lighting before releasing the knob (starting time for the
valve).
3. Adjust the gas valve to the desired power.
Important
If the burner ame should go out for some reason, the safety valve will automatically stop the gas
ow.
To re-light the burner, return the knob to the closed position, wait for at least 1 minute and then
repeat the lighting procedure.
If your local gas supply makes it dicult to light the burner with the knob set to maximum, set the
knob to minimum and repeat the operation.
Fig. 4

Choice of Burner
The burner must be choosen according to the diameter
of the pans and energy required. Saucepans with
handles which are excessively heavy, in relationship to
the weight of the pan, are less safe as they are likely to
tip. Pans which are positioned centrally on burners are
more stable than those which are oset.
It is far safer to position the pan handles in such a way that they cannot be accidentally knocked.
When deep fat frying ll the pan only one third full of oil.
DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO NOT leave the pan unattended.
In the unfortunate event of a re, leave the pan where it is and turn o all controls. Place a damp
cloth or correct tting lid over the pan to smother the ames.
DO NOT use water on the re.
Leave the pan to cool for at least 30 minutes.
Do not use pans with concave or convex bases.

HOW TO USE THE FAN OVEN BOTTOM MAIN OVEN
GENERAL FEATURES
Fan cooking is more economical and quicker than cooking in a conventional oven.
The moving hot air surrounds the food and penetrates it more quickly than in a conventional oven.
The oven is equipped with a circular element (2200 W) and a fan.
Note:
Upon rst use, it is advisable to operate the oven at the maximum temperature (thermostat knob
on position 250) for 60 minutes to eliminate any traces of grease from the electrical element.
Smells and fumes produced during this burn o process are not a cause of alarm. Adequate
ventilation should however be provided in the room where the appliance is installed, e.g. by
opening a window.
OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in this oven are obtained by forced convection.
A fan sucks in the air contained in the oven mue, which sends it through the circular heating
element and then sends it back through the mue. Before the hot air is sucked back again by the
fan to repeat the described cycle, it envelops the food in the oven, provoking a complete and rapid
cooking.
It is possible to cook several dishes simultaneously.
IMPORTANT
To open the bottom door operate as indicated in g. 8.
Attention:
The oven door becomes very hot during operation.
WARNING:
The door is hot, use the handle.
ATTENTION - MOST IMPORTANT
Pay special attention not to touch
the hot heating element inside the
oven cavity.
Fig. 8

15
SWITCH / TEMPERATURE SELECTOR
Rotate the knob clockwise to set the oven for one of the following functions:
O as per g. 9
Only the oven fan is on.
The fan operates without the heating element, this function can be used for
defrosting.
50 to 250 The oven light is switched on.
The oven temperature can be set between 50°C - 250°C.
The set temperature has been reached when the temperature indicator light
goes o.
Several dierent meals may be cooked simultaneously on various shelves, as
the heated air circulates evenly throughout the oven.
The hot air system cooks more quickly than conventional static system,
therefore the temperature should be set 15°C - 20°C below the values
recommended in your recipe books.
Fig. 9

16
COOKING ADVICE
STERILISATION
Sterilisation of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in the following
way:
a. Set the selector knob to position 185 °C and preheat the oven.
b. Fill the grill pan with hot water.
c. Set the jars onto the grill pan making sure they do not touch each other and the door and set
the knob to position 135 °C. When sterilisation has begun, that is, when the contents of the
jars start to bubble, turn o the oven and let cool.
REGENERATION
Set the selector knob to position 150° C.
Bread becomes fragrant again if wet with a few drops of water and put into the oven for about 10
minutes at the highest temperature.
ROASTING
To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary to remember:
• that it is advisable to maintain a temperature between 180° and 200 ° C.
• that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.
OVEN COOKING
Before introducing the food, preheat the oven to the desired temperature.
For a correct preheating operation, it is advisable to remove the tray from the oven and introduce
it together with the food, when the oven has reached the desired temperature.
Check the cooking time and turn o the oven 5 minutes before the theoretical time to recuperate
the stored heat.
SIMULTANEOUS COOKING OF DIFFERENT FOODS
The fan allows a simultaneous cooking of dierent foods. Dierent foods such as sh, cake and
meat can be cooked together without mixing the smells and avours together. This is possible
since the fats and vapours are oxidized while passing through the electrical element and therefore
are not deposited onto the foods.
The only precaution to follow are:
• The cooking temperatures of the dierent foods must be as close to as possible, with a
maximum dierence of 20° - 25 °C.
• The introduction of the dierent dishes in the oven must be done at dierent times in relation
to the cooking times of each one.
• The time and energy saved with this type of cooking is obvious.

17
HOW TO USE THE CONVECTION OVEN TOP OVEN
GENERAL FEATURES
The convection oven is equipped with 3 electrical heating elements:
• 2 elements (upper and lower) for normal oven cooking;
• 1 grill element, on the top of the oven, for grilling which must be done with the oven door
closed.
The input of the elements is:
• Upper element 700 W
• Lower element 1000 W
• Grill element 2000 W
Note:
Upon rst use, it is advisable to operate the oven at the maximum temperature (thermostat knob
on position MAX) for 60 minutes in the position and for another 15 minutes in the mode
in order to eliminate any traces of grease from the electrical elements.
OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in the CONVENTIONAL oven are obtained in the following ways:
a. by normal convection
The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.
b. by radiation
The heat is radiated by the infra red grill element (use with the oven door closed).
