Each burner is controlled by a gas tap
assuring the opening and the closing of
the gas supply.
Make the symbols printed on the knob
to match with the indicator on the con-
trol panel, to obtain:

- symbol : full on (nominal rate)
- symbol : reduced rate

LIGHTING OF TOP BURNERS WITH
ELECTRIC IGNITION
- To light the burner turn the knob (fig.
3.1) corresponding to the specific bur-
ner to the maximum flame position
(large flame symbol) and press the
ignition button marked by the symbol
★(fig. 3.2).
If the electronic ignition does not work
make sure that the battery, installed
on the back of the cooker, is not flat
and has been installed correctly (see
the chapter “Battery installation”, page
11).
The sparks produced by the electro-
des situated next to the burner will
light the selected burner. In the event
that the local gas supply conditions
makes it difficult to light the burner in
maximum aperture position, try again
with the knob in minimum position.
- To reduce the gas flow to minimum,
rotate the knob further anti-clockwise
to point the indicator towards the
small flame symbol.
- 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.
- Other intermediate operating
adjustments can be achieved by
positioning the indicator between the
maximum and minimum aperture
positions, and never between the
maximum aperture and closed
positions.
N.B. When the cooker is not being
used, set the gas knobs to their clo-
sed positions and also close the cock
valve on the gas bottle or the main
gas supply line.
Attention:
The cooktop becomes very hot
while in operation.
Keep children away.

Fig. 3.3
CHOICE OF THE BURNER
On the control panel, near every knob,
there is a diagram that indicates which
burner is controlled by that knob.
The suitable burner must be chosen
according to the diameter and the capa-
city used.
As an indication, the burners and the
pots must be used in the following way:
It is important that the diameter of the
pot be suitable to the potentiality of the
burner so as not to compromise the high
output of the burners and therefore
energy waste.
A small pot on a large burner does not
give you a boiling point in a shorten
amount of time since the capacity of
heat absorption of a liquid mass
depends on the volume and the surface
of the pot.

The flat-bottomed pans are to be placed
directly onto the pan-support.
To use the WOK you need to place the
proper stand in order to avoid any faulty
operation of the double-ring burner

GENERAL FEATURES
The oven is furnished completely clean;
it is advisable, however, upon first use,
to turn the oven on to the maximum tem-
perature (position 10) for about 15 minu-
tes to eliminate possible traces of grea-
se from the oven burner.
The gas oven, according to the model,
is provided with one burner:
– Oven burner, mounted on the lower
part of the oven (wattage: 3200 W)
The glass of the oven door rea-
ches high temperatures during
operation.
Keep children away.
The cooker lid must be kept
open when the gas oven is in
use.
4 - GAS OVEN
OVEN BURNER
It carries out normal “oven cooking”.
The gas flow to the burner is regulated
by a thermostat which allow to maintain
the oven temperature constant.
The control of the temperature is assu-
red 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 encrustment may
cause an alteration in the control of the
temperature.
THERMOSTAT
The numbers 1 to 10 printed on the knob
(fig. 4.1) indicate the increasing oven
temperature value (see table 4.2).
The thermostatic tap controlling the gas
supply to the burner is equipped with a
safety device which automatically stops
the gas flow in case of flame extinction.
The temperature is constantly maintai-
ned on the set value.

A
IGNITION OF THE OVEN BURNER
ATTENTION: Never turn the
thermostat tap before approaching a
flame to the hole “A” of the floor.
To light the burner, you need to:
1 – Open the oven door to the full
extent.
2 – Press in the oven control knob (fig.
4.1) and turn counter-clockwise to
position 10. Keep the knob pressed.
3 – To light the oven approach a flame
to the hole “A” of the floor (fig. 4.3).
4 – After lighting the burner, wait a few
seconds before releasing the knob
(until the safety valve stays open).
5 – Gently close the oven door and set
the oven control knob to the requi-
red temperature.
If the flame extinguishes for any reason,
the safety valve will automatically shut
off the gas supply to the burner.
To re-light the burner, first turn the oven
control knob to position ●, wait for at
least 1 minute and then repeat the
lighting procedure.
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 off the
oven 5 minutes before the theoretical
time to recuperate the stored heat.

* When the appliance is not being used,
it is advisable to keep the gas tap clo-
sed.
From time to time check to make sure
that the flexible tube that connects the
gas line or the gas cylinder to the
appliance is in perfect condition and
eventually substitute it, if it shows signs
of wearing or damage.
* The periodical lubrification of the gas
taps must be done only by specialized
personnel. In case of difficulty in the gas
taps operation, call Service.
Attention:
The cooktop becomes very hot
while in operation.
The oven door becomes very hot
during operation.
Keep children away.
