CHOICE OF THE BURNER
The burner must be chosen 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 safer as they are less likely to tip.
Pans which are positioned centrally on burners are more stable than those which are offset.
It is far safer to position the pan handles in such a way that they cannot be accidentally
knocked.
When deep fat frying fill 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 fire, leave the pan where it is and turn off all controls.
Place a damp cloth or correct fitting lid over the pan to smother the flames.
DO NOT use water on the fire.
Leave the pan to cool for at least 30 minutes.
GRATE FOR SMALL PANS
Supplied together with the appliance (see fig. 5).
This grate is to be placed on top of the (smaller) auxiliary
burner when using small diameter pans, in order to prevent
them from tipping over.
CORRECT USE OF DOUBLE-RING BURNER
[Flat-bottomed pans are to be placed directly onto the pan-support.(See fig.6a)
[To use the WOK you need to place the proper stand in order to avoid any faulty
operation of the wok burner.(See fig.6b)

GENERAL FEATURES
This is ovenfeatures 7 different programs to satisfy every cooking need. The 7 positions,
thermostatically controlled, are obtained by 4 heating elements.
OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in the MULTI-FUNCTION oven are obtained in the following ways:
4by normal convection
The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.
4by forced convection
The fan in the oven sucks the air from the oven housing at the rear of the oven and
forces it over the circular heating element. The hot air envelops the food in the oven
giving faster and more even cooking before it is sucked back into the housing to
repeat the cycle. It is possible to cook several dishes simultaneously due to the
even distribution of heat within the oven.
4by semi-forced convection
The heat produced by the top and bottom heating elements is distributed
throughout the oven by the fan.
4by radiant heat
The food is grilled by the infrared grill element.
4by radiant heat and ventilation
The food is grilled by the infrared grill element and the heat is distributed
throughout the oven by the fan.
4by ventilation
The food is defrosted by using the fan only function without heat.

Intense grilling, browining, cooking au gratin and toasting, etc.
It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
Attention: The oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.
DEFROST
Only the oven fan comes on. Use with the thermostat knob set to “ ” - other positions
have no effect. The food is thawed by ventilation without heating.
Recommended for:
Quick thawing of frozen foods; one kg requires approximately 1 hour.
Thawing times vary according to the quantity and type of food to be thawed.
FAN FORCED
The circular element and fan come on. The heat is dispersed by forced convection and the
temperature can be varied to between 50° and 225°C via the thermostat knob. The oven
does not require preheating.
Recommended for:
Food which has to be well-cooked outside and soft or rosy inside, for example lasagne,
lamb, roast beef, whole fish etc.
FAN GRILL
Both the infrared grill and the fan come on. Most of the cooking is done by grilling and then
the hot air circulated around the oven.The oven door should be kept closed.
The temperature can be set between 50°C and 175° C maximum.
The oven should be preheated for approximately 5 minutes before cooking. For further
cooking hints see “GRILLING AND COOKING AU GRATIN”.

Quick sealing in of food juices for example such as hamburger, chicken pieces, chops.
It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
Attention: The oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.
11

MAINTAINING TEMPERATURE AFTER COOKING OR
SLOWLY HEATING FOODS
The upper element, the circular element and the fan come on.
The heat is circulated by forced convection with greater intensity in the upper part.
The temperature can be set to between 50° and 140°C via the thermostat knob.
Recommended for:
Keeping food warm after any type of cooking. Slow heating of cooked food.
MULTI-FUNCTION
The upper and lower heating elements and the fan come on - the heat from the element
being circulated by the fan.
The temperature range can be set to between 50° and 225° C using the thermostat.
Recommended for:
Large bulky quantities of food that require even cooking throughout for example large
roasts, turkey, roast turkey, cakes etc.
COOKING ADVICE
STERILIZATION
Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in the
following way:
,Set the switch to position .
,Set the thermostat knob to 185° C and preheat the oven.
,Fill the dripping pan with hot water.
,Set the jars onto the dripping pan making sure they do not touch each other and the
door and set the thermostat knob to position 135° C.
When sterilization has begun, that is, when the contents of the jars start to bubble,turn off
the oven and let cool.
Check your recycle book for full instructions.
12

REGENERATION
Set the switch to position and the thermostat 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.
SIMULTANEOUS COOKING OF DIFFERENT FOODS
The oven set on position can cook several different foods together. Foods as diverse
as fish and cakes can be cooked together without the cross transference of flavours. This
is because the fats and cooking smell that would normally be deposited on the different
foods are oxidised and are not absorbed by the foods.
The cooking temperature of the foods, however must be within 20°-25°C of each other.
The food with longest cooking time will be put into the oven first and the other foods are
added as necessary according to their cooking times.
GRILLING AND COOKING “AU GRATIN”
Grilling may be done without the roasting jack on position of the switch, because the
hot air completely envelops the food that is to be cooked.
Set the thermostat to position 175° C and after having preheated the oven, simply place
the food on the rack.
Close the door and let the oven operate on position 175° C, until grilling is done. Adding a
few dabs of butter before the end of the cooking time gives the golden “au gratin” effect.
It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
Attention: The oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.
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.
USE OF THE GRILL
Preheat the oven for about 5 minutes with the door closed.
Introduce the food to be cooked, positioning the rack as close to the grill as possible.
The dripping pan should be placed under the rack to catch the cooking juices and fats.
Grill with the oven door closed.
Do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
Attention: The oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.

USE AND CARE
17
Fig. 11 Fig. 12

GENERAL ADVICE
[Before you begin cleaning, you must ensure that the appliance is switched off.
[It is advisable to clean when the appliance is cold and especially when cleaning the
enamelled parts.
[Avoid leaving alkaline or acidic substances (lemon juice, vinegar, etc.) on the surfaces.
[Avoid using cleaning products with a chlorine or acidic base.
[Do not use a steam cleaner because the moisture can get into the appliance thus make
it unsafe.
ENAMELLED PART
All the enamelled parts must be washed only with a sponge and soapy water or with non-
abrasive products.
Dry, preferably, with chamois.
STAINLESS STEEL
The stainless steel parts should be rinsed with water and dried with a soft, clean cloth or
chamois. In case of difficult spots, use normal non abrasive detergents available on the
market or else a little warm vinegar.
CLEANING THE HOB
Spillage on the hob can usually be removed by a damp soapy cloth. More obstinate stains
can be removed by rubbing gently with a soapy scouring pad or mild household cleaner.
GAS TAPS
If a tap becomes stiff, do not force; contact your local Kleenmaid Service Agent.
OVEN
[The oven with smooth enamel (without catalytic panels) must be cleaned after every
use, using suitable products.
[Please note that after using the oven leaving it on for 30 minutes on the highest
temperature eliminates most grime reducing it to ashes.
[Do not use abrasive substances to clean the oven.
GRILL HEATING ELEMENT
[The heating element is self-cleaning and does not require maintenance.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
18

BURNERS
These can be removed and washed only with soapy water.
Detergents can be used but they must not be abrasive or corrosive.
Do not use abrasive sponges or pads.
Do not put in dishwasher.
After each cleaning, make sure that the burner-caps, as well as the burners, have been well
wiped off and CORRECTLY POSITIONED.
It is essential to check the correct position of the burner-caps as the least displacement from
the housing may cause serious problems.
Special attention has to be paid in order not to exchange the housing of the two small
burners shown in fig. 13. The burner caps can instead be interchangeable. The inner
ring of Wok burner is partially drilled while the ring of Auxiliary burner is fully drilled.
Make sure that the probe of the safety valve, near to each burner, remains clean so that the
safety valves can work properly.
Check also that the electrodes for ignition are always clean in order to ensure a regular spark
shooting.
Advice for use and maintenance of catalytic panels.
The catalytic panels are covered with special microporous enamel which absorbs and does
away with oil and fat splashes during normal baking over 200°C.
If, after cooking very fatty foods, the panels remain dirty, operate the oven “idling” on max
temperature for about 30 minutes.
These panels do not need to be cleaned, however it is advised to periodically remove them
from the oven (at least the side panels) and to wash them with tepid soapy water and then
wipe off with a soft cloth.
Do not wash or clean with abrasive products or with products containing acids or
alkalis.
The side panels are reversible and when the catalytic microporous enamel degrades, they
can be turned to the other side.
