EN
3.4 Using the cooktop
All the appliance's control and monitoring
devices are located together on the front
panel. The burner controlled by each knob
is shown next to the knob. The appliance is
equipped with an electronic ignition device.
Simply press the knob and turn it anti-
clockwise to the maximum flame symbol,
until the burner lights. If the burner does not
light in the first 15 seconds, turn the knob to
and wait 60 seconds before trying
again. After lighting, keep the knob pressed
in for a few seconds to allow the
thermocouple to heat up. The burner may
go out when the knob is released: in this
case, the thermocouple has not heated up
sufficiently. Wait a few moments and repeat
the operation. Keep the knob pressed in
longer.
Correct positioning of the flame-
spreader crowns and burner caps
Before lighting the cooktop burners, make
sure that the flame-spreader crowns are
correctly positioned in their housings with
their respective burner caps. Make sure that
the holes 1in the flame-spreader crowns
are aligned with the thermocouples 2and
igniters 3.
Practical tips for using the cooktop
For better burner efficiency and to minimise
gas consumption, use pans with lids and of
suitable size for the burner, so that the
flames do not reach up the sides of the pan.
Once the contents come to the boil, turn
down the flame far enough to ensure that
the liquid does not boil over.
In case of an accidental switching
off, a safety device will be tripped,
cutting off the gas supply, even if
the gas cock is open. Return the
knob to and wait at least 60
seconds before lighting it again.
Cookware diameters:
• Auxiliary: 12 - 14 cm.
• Semi-rapid: 16 - 24 cm.
• Rapid: 18 - 26 cm.
• Ultra-rapid: 18 - 28 cm.

Use
20
3.5 Using the storage compartment
There is a storage compartment located at
the bottom of the cooker; this can be used
to store pans or metal objects required to
use the cooker.
Depending on the model:
Press lightly on the sides of the door to open
it.
1. To open the storage compartment, press
lightly on the left-hand side of the door
until it clicks.
2. Gently release the storage compartment
door.
3. To close the storage compartment
again, lift the door until it clicks.
3.6 Using the oven
Switching on the oven
To switch on the oven:
1. Select the cooking function using the
function knob.
2. Select the temperature using the
temperature knob.
Preheating stage
Cooking functions are always preceded by
a preheating stage, which allows the
appliance to heat up to cooking
temperature.
The indicator light comes on to indicate that
the oven is heating up.
The indicator light turns off to indicate that
the food can be placed inside the oven and
cooking will start automatically.
Functions list
Ensure that the programmer clock
shows the cooking duration
symbol , otherwise it will not
be possible to turn on the oven.
Press the key to reset the
programmer clock.
Convection
As the heat comes from above and
below at the same time, this system
is particularly suitable for certain
types of food. Traditional cooking,
also known as convection cooking,
is suitable for cooking just one dish
at a time. Perfect for all types of
roasts, bread and cakes, and in any
case, particularly suitable for fatty
meats such as goose and duck.

Use
21
EN
Baker’s function
The combination of the fan with just
the lower heating element allows
cooking to be completed more
rapidly. This system is
recommended for sterilising or for
finishing off the cooking of foods
which are already well-cooked on
the surface, but not inside, which
therefore need a little more heat.
Perfect for any type of food.
Small grill
Using only the heat released from
the central element, this function
allows you to grill small portions of
meat and fish for making kebabs,
toasted sandwiches and any types
of grilled vegetable side dishes.
Rotisserie (on some models only)
The rotisserie works in combination
with the central grill heating element
and allows food to be perfectly
browned.
Grill
The heat coming from the grill
element gives perfect grilling results
above all for thin and medium
thickness meat and, in combination
with the rotisserie (where fitted),
gives the food an even browning at
the end of cooking. Perfect for
sausages, spare ribs and bacon.
This function enables large
quantities of food, particularly meat,
to be grilled evenly.
Fan grill
The air produced by the fan softens
the strong heatwave generated by
the grill, grilling perfectly even very
thick foods. Perfect for large cuts of
meat (e.g. pork hock).
Fan assisted
The operation of the fan, combined
with traditional cooking, ensures
consistent cooking even with complex
recipes. Perfect for biscuits and cakes,
even when simultaneously cooked on
several levels. (For multiple-level
cooking, we recommend using the
2nd and 4th shelf).
Fan forced
The combination of the fan and the
circular heating element
(incorporated in the rear of the oven)
allows you to cook different foods on
several levels, as long as they need
the same temperatures and same type
of cooking. Hot air circulation ensures
instant and even distribution of heat. It
will be possible, for instance, to cook
fish, vegetables and biscuits
simultaneously (on different levels)
without odours and flavours mingling.
Eco
Using the grill and the lower heating
element in combination is particularly
suitable for cooking on a single shelf,
as it provides low energy
consumption. Ideal for cooking meat,
fish and vegetables. Not
recommended for desserts which must
rise.

Use
22
3.7 Cooking advice
General advice
• Use a fan assisted function to achieve
consistent cooking at several levels.
• It is not possible to shorten cooking times
by increasing the temperature (the food
could be overcooked on the outside and
undercooked on the inside).
Advice for cooking meat
• Cooking times vary according to the
thickness and quality of the food and to
consumer taste.
• Use a meat thermometer when roasting
meat, or simply press on the roast with a
spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; if not, it
needs another few minutes cooking.
Advice for cooking with the Grill and the
Fan grill
• Meat can be grilled even when it is put
into the cold oven or into the preheated
oven if you wish to change the effect of
the cooking.
• With the Fan grill function, we
recommend that you preheat the oven
before grilling.
• We recommend placing the food at the
centre of the rack.
• With the Grill function, we recommend
that you turn the temperature knob to the
maximum value near the symbol to
optimise cooking.
• Foods should be seasoned before
cooking. Foods should also be coated
with oil or melted butter before cooking.
• Use the oven tray on the first bottom shelf
to collect fluids produced by grilling.
• Grilling processes should never last more
than 60 minutes.
Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and
biscuits
• Use dark metal moulds: they help to
absorb the heat better.
• The temperature and the cooking time
depend on the quality and consistency
of the dough.
• To check whether the dessert is cooked
right through: at the end of the cooking
time, put a toothpick into the highest point
of the dessert. If the dough does not stick
to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.
• If the dessert collapses when it comes out
of the oven, on the next occasion reduce
the set temperature by about 10°C,
selecting a longer cooking time if
necessary.
• While cooking desserts or vegetables,
excessive condensation may form on the
glass. In order to avoid this, open the
door very carefully a couple of times
while cooking.
Advice for defrosting and proving
• Place frozen foods without their
packaging in a lidless container on the
first shelf of the oven.
• Avoid overlapping the food.
• To defrost meat, use the rack placed on
the second level and a tray on the first
level. In this way, the liquid from the
defrosting food drains away from the
food.
Vapour Clean
This function makes cleaning easier
using the steam produced by a small
quantity of water poured onto the
appropriate groove placed on the
bottom.
