technical data plate) from the
accessories and from the oven cavity.
3. Remove and wash all the appliance's
accessories (see 4 Cleaning and
maintenance).

temperature to burn off any residues left
by the manufacturing process.
High temperature inside the

Use
73
EN
3.1 Using the accessories
Tray rack
The tray rack has to be inserted into the tray.
In this way fat can be collected separately
from the food which is being cooked.
Racks and trays
Racks and trays have to be inserted into the
side guides until they come to a complete
stop.
• The mechanical safety locks that prevent
the rack from being taken out
accidentally have to face downwards
and towards the oven back.
3.2 Using the hob
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
counterclockwise to the maximum flame
symbol, until the burner ignites. 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.
Gently insert racks and trays into
the oven until they come to a stop.
Clean the trays before using them
for the first time to remove any
residues left by the manufacturing
process.

Use
74
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 hob burners, make sure
that the flame-spreader crowns are
correctly positioned in their seats with their
respective burner caps. Make sure that the
holes 1in the flame-spreader crowns are
aligned with the igniters 3and
thermocouples 2.
Practical tips for using the hob
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.
3.3 Using the storage compartment
The storage compartment is at the bottom of
the cooker. To open it, pull the handle
towards you. It can be used to store
cookware or metallic objects necessary
when using the appliance.
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.
Pan diameters:
• AUX: 12 - 14 cm.

EN
3.4 Using the ovens
Switching on the main oven
1. Select the cooking function using the
function knob.
2. Select the temperature using the
temperature knob.
Main oven functions
Static
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 static 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.
Fan + lower element
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.
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 with 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. shin of pork).
Turbo
The combination of fan assisted
cooking and traditional cooking
allows different foods to be cooked
on several levels extremely quickly
and efficiently, without odours and
flavours mingling. Perfect for large
volumes that call for intense
cooking.

Use
76
Switching on the auxiliary oven
Turn the temperature/function knob to the
required temperature, from a minimum of
50 °C to a maximum of 245 °C, or to the
required function (at the maximum
temperature).
Auxiliary oven functions
Fan with round heating element
The combination of the fan and the
round 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
This function is particularly suitable
for cooking on a single shelf with
low energy consumption.
It is recommended for all types of
food, excluding those that can
create a lot of humidity (such as
vegetables).
To obtain maximum energy savings
and reduce cooking times, it is
recommended to place food in the
oven without preheating.
When using the ECO function,
avoid opening the door during
cooking.
Cooking (and preheating) times
are longer with the ECO function.
The ECO function is a delicate
cooking function and is
recommended for food
withstanding temperatures lower
than 210 °C; in case of cooking
at higher temperatures, select
another function.
Vapor Clean
This function makes cleaning easier
using the steam produced by a little
quantity of water poured onto the
appropriate groove placed on the
bottom. (see chapter “Cleaning and
maintenance”)
Light bulb
Turns on the light inside the oven
cavity.
