7. USE OF THE HOB
7.1 Lighting of the hob burners
Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame caps are in th
e
correct position and that their burner caps are in place, making sure tha
t
the holes Ain the flame caps correspond to the spark plugs an
d
thermocouples.
Before lighting the burners lift the glass cover; before lowering th
e
cover, turn off all the burners and wait for them to cool down.
The optional grid Bis for use with “woks” (Chinese pans).
To prevent deterioration of the hob we have equipped the cooker with
a
raised pan stand Cto be placed underneath pans more than 26 cm i
n
diameter.
The supplied reduction rest Cis also used for small pans.
The drawing next to each knob shows the
corresponding burner. The appliance has an
electronic lighting device. Simply press and turn the
knob anticlockwise to the minimum flame symbol
, until the ring is lit. Hold the knob down for a few
seconds to allow the thermocouples to heat up.
The burner may go out when the knob is released:
this is because the thermocouple has not been
sufficiently heated. Repeat the operation holding
down the knob for a little longer. This operation is
not necessary for burners without thermocouples.
For models with thermocouples, if the burner should accidentally go out,
a safety device will be activated which stops the gas flow even if the tap
is open.

Instructions for the user
21
7.2 Practical advice for using the hob burners
For better use of the burners and lower gas consumption, use covered
containers that are proportional in size to the burner to prevent the flame
from licking the sides (see paragraph “7.3 Diameter of containers”).
When water reaches the boiling point, lower the flame so that it doesn’t
overflow. To avoid burns or damage to the hob, all recipients or griddle
plates must be placed within the perimeter of the hob. All containers
have to have a flat and smooth bottom. When using fats or oils, be
extremely careful that they don’t overheat and catch fire.
If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait at
least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner.

8. USE OF THE OVEN
For those models with electronic programmer, before using the ove
n
make sure that the display shows the symbol .
8.1 Warnings and general advice
Using the oven and the grill for the first time, heat them to the maximum
temperature (260°C for electric oven) for as long as it takes to burn off
any production oil residues which could give a nasty flavour to the food.
After a power cut, the oven display will flash intermittently and sho
w
. To adjust refer to paragraph "6 ELECTRONIC PROGRAMMER
(ONLY ON EQUIPPED MODELS)”.
The oven accessories which may come into contact with food are mad
e
from materials which conform to the standing directives.
To prevent any steam in the oven creatin
g
problems, open the door in two stages: hal
f
open (5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and the
n
fully open. To access food, always leave th
e
door open as short a time as possible t
o
prevent the temperature in the oven from fallin
g
and ruining the food.
8.2 Cooling system
The oven is equipped with a cooling system which automatically comes
on upon a few minutes after the oven has been turned on.
Fans cause a steady outflow of air from above the door which may
continue for a brief period of time even after the oven has been turned
off.
