Controls Description
1. Gas oven/gas grill control knob
2. 60’ timer control knob
3. Oven light control knob
Notes:
− The electric ignition is incorporated in the thermostat control knob.
− The appliance has a safety valve system tted, the ow of gas will be stopped if and when the
ame should accidentally go out.
CAUTION:
If the burner is accidentally extinguished, turn the gas o at the control knob and wait at least 1
minute before attempting to relight.
CAUTION:
Gas appliances produce heat and humidity in the environment in which they are installed.
Ensure that the cooking area is well ventilated by opening the natural ventilation grilles or by
installing an extractor hood connected to an outlet duct.
CAUTION:
If the appliance is used for a prolonged time it may be necessary to provide further ventilation
by opening a window or by increasing the suction power of the extractor hood (if tted).

Gas Oven
Technical Features
The oven is furnished completely clean.
It is advisable however, upon rst use, to turn the oven on to the maximum temperature to eliminate
possible traces of grease from the oven burner.
The same operation shall be done with the gas grill.
This oven is tted with:
−One gas oven burner (2,70 kW), located at the bottom, providing self-ignition and safety device.
−One gas grill burner (2,10 kW), placed on the top, providing self-ignition and safety device.
Operating Principles
Heating and cooking in the gas oven are obtained in the following ways:
a. by Normal Convection
The heat is produced by the oven gas burner.
b. by Radiation
The heat is radiated by the gas grill.
Cooling Fan Motor
This appliance incorporates a safety cooling fan motor to achieve optimum eciency of the controls,
ensure lower surface temperatures are maintained and cool the internal components.
The cooling fan motor turns on automatically when igniting the oven or grill burner.
It may run on (for various minutes) even after the oven or grill burner has been turned o.
The duration of this time is dependent on previous cooking temperature and duration.
ATTENTION:
The oven door becomes very hot during operation and very hot steam goes out from the area
below the control panel. Keep children away.
The door is hot, use the handle.
During use the appliance becomes hot.
Care should be taken to avoid touching the heating elements inside the oven.

How to Use the Oven
IMPORTANT NOTES:
− Do not use the appliance in case of power failure or if the cooling fan motor is damaged.
The appliance may overheat and get damaged due to the non-operation of the cooling fan
motor.
− In case of failure of the cooling fan motor du-
ring the operation of the gas oven or grill, the
oven or grill burner is turned o automatically
after about 20 minutes.
In that case do not use the appliance and con-
tact the after-sales service.
− When the cooling fan motor is operating cor-
rectly there is an air ow in the top area of the
appliance (g. 2).
Oven Burner
The gas ow to the burner is regulated by a thermostat which allow to maintain the oven temperature
constant.
The control of the temperature is assured by a thermostatic probe positioned inside the oven.
The probe must be always kept in its housing, in a clean condition, as an incorrect position or en-
crustment may cause an alteration in the control of the temperature.
Moreover, the thermostat is tted with a safety valve which automatically shuts o the gas supply when
the ame goes out.
Thermostat
The numbers printed on the control panel (g. 3) indicate the
increasing oven temperature value.
To regulate the temperature, set the knob to the chosen number.
The symbol close to the maximum position indicates that the
electric ignition is incorporated into the knob (activated by the
knob itself ).

procedure from step 1.
5. Close the oven door slowly and adjust the thermostat knob on the desired setting.
If the ame extinguishes for any reason, the safety valve will automatically shut o the gas supply to
the burner.
To re-light the burner, rst turn the oven control knob to OFF position (“ ”), wait for at least 1 minute
and then repeat the lighting procedure.
For the correct use of the gas oven see the chapter“COOKING WITH GAS OVEN”.
During and after use of the oven, certain parts will become very hot.

Cooking With Gas Oven
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.
Oven Light
The oven provides an interior lamp to allow the visual
inspection during the cooking.
To light the oven lamp turn the knob indicated in g. 8
to position .
Traditional Grilling
Warning: The grill burner must be used with the
door ajar only.
Leave to warm up for approximately 5 minutes with the
door ajar.
Place the food inside positioning the rack as near as
possible to the grill.
Insert the drip pan under the rack to collect the cooking juices.
The operation of the grill should not exceed 30 minutes.
Attention: The oven door becomes very hot during operation.
Keep children away.
Fig. 8
Fig. 9
WARNING !!
The grill burner must be used with the
door ajar only.
The cooling fan air ow (below the con-
trol panel) allows a correct discharging of
the hot air coming from the inside of the
cavity.
Do not use the grill burner if the cooling
fan is not operating (e.g. mains failure,
cooling fan broken).

11
Cooking Guide
Your gas oven is a newly designed oven which incorporates an indirect burner located under the oven
base plate.
If you have previously been used to cooking with gas you may need to slightly alter your cooking me-
thods.
The bottom of the oven is hot and is ideal for browning the underside of shallow pastry dishes and
pizzas.
Other items should be cooked nearer the top of the oven.
When baking cakes, scones etc on more than one shelf the best results will be achieved by swapping the
shelf positions over half way through the cooking process.
Safety
NEVER allow fat to build on the oven base.
As with all ovens, clean and empty fat regularly from the trays and oven base to avoid the possibility of
fat res.
The oven incorporates a safety cooling fan motor to achieve optimum eciency of the controls, ensure
lower surface temperatures are maintained and cool the internal components.
However, the oven door can become hot - keep children away from this appliance.
NEVER place anything on the bottom of the oven.
Do not line the oven walls with aluminium foil.
Do not place baking trays or the drip tray on the base of the oven chamber.

Removing and Replacing the Inner
Door Glass Pane for Cleaning
If you wish to clean the inner glass of the door, make
sure you follow the precautions and instructions
very carefully.
Replacing the glass pane and the door incorrectly
may result in damage to the oven and may void your
warranty.
IMPORTANT!
− Take care, the oven door is heavy. If you have
any doubts, do not attempt to remove the
door.
− Make sure the oven and all its parts have coo-
led down. Do not attempt to handle the parts
of a hot oven.
− Take extreme care when handling the glass pane.
Avoid the edges of the glass bumping against any
surface. This may result in the glass shattering.
− Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they
can scratch the surface, which may result in shat-
tering of the glass.
− If you notice any sign of damage on any of the
glass panes (such as chipping, or cracks), do not
use the oven. Call your Authorised Service Centre
or Customer Care.
− Make sure you replace the glass pane correctly.
Do not use the oven without glass pane correctly in place.
