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 (4,70 kW),
located at the bottom, providing self-
ignition and safety device.
• One gas grill burner (3,00 kW), placed
on the top, providing self-ignition and
safety device.
• Only for the “fan assisted” models
(models having also the position
or ) - A fan motor, positioned
on the back panel of the oven cavity,
which can be used in combination with
the oven gas burner or alone, without
heating.
IMPORTANT NOTE - It is not
possible to use the fan motor in
combination with the gas grill: a
safety device switches off the fan
motor when the gas grill control
knob is turned on grill position.

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 forced convection (only for the
“fan assisted” models - models
having also the position or ).
The heat produced by the oven burner
is distributed throughout the oven by
the fan. (In the position also the
rotisserie motor is operating).
c. by radiation
The heat is radiated by the gas grill.
d. by ventilation (only for the “fan
assisted” models - models having
also the position ).
The food is defrosted by using the fan
only without oven burner (this is not a
cooking function).
COOLING FAN MOTOR
This appliance incorporates a safety
cooling fan motor to achieve optimum
ef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 off.
HOW TO USE THE OVEN
2

11
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 during the operation of the
gas oven or gas grill, the oven or grill
burner is turned off automatically
after about 20 minutes. In that case
do not use the oven or the grill and
contact the after-sales service.
• When the cooling fan motor is
operating correctly there is an air
ow in the top area of the appliance.
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 encrustment may
cause an alteration in the control of the
temperature.
Moreover, the thermostat is tted with a
safety valve which automatically shuts off
the gas supply when the ame goes out.
THERMOSTAT
The numbers printed on the control panel or
on the knob (g. 2.2) indicate the increasing
oven temperature value (see table below).
To regulate the temperature, set the
knob to the chosen number. The “FAN
ASSISTED GAS OVEN” column refers to
the oven burner used in combination with
the fan motor (forced convection cooking:
only for the “fan assisted” models - models
having also the position or ), while
the “GAS OVEN” column refers to the
oven burner used in the normal convection
mode (without fan motor). The symbol
close to the maximum position indicates
that the electric ignition is incorporated into
the knob (activated by the knob itself).
