2. DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS – OUR ENVIRONMENT POLICY
Our appliances are only packaged using non-pollutant, environment-friendly, recyclable materials. We
urge you to cooperate by disposing of the packaging properly. Contact your local dealer or the
competent local organisations for the addresses of collection, recycling and disposal facilities.
Never leave all or part of the packaging lying around. Packaging parts, and especially plastic bags, may
represent a suffocation hazard for children.
Your old appliance must also be disposed of properly.
Important deliver the appliance to your local organisation authorised to collect scrapped appliances.
Proper disposal allows the intelligent recovery of valuable materials. Refrigeration appliances contain
gases which may damage the environment; it is important to ensure that the refrigeration circuit
pipelines are not damaged until the competent service has taken delivery of the appliance.
Before scrapping your appliances it is important to remove doors and leave shelves in position as for
use, to ensure that children cannot accidentally become trapped inside during play. Also, cut the power
supply lead and remove it and the plug.

Do not leave the packing in the home environment. separate the various waste materials and take them to
the nearest special garbage collection centre.
The inside of the appliance should be cleaned to remove all manufacturing residues. For further
information about cleaning, see section "12. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE"
Using the oven and the grill for the first time, heat them to the maximum temperature (260°C) 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 show . To adjust refer to paragraph "11.

7. USE OF THE HOB
7.1 Lighting of the hob burners
Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame caps are in the correct position and that their burner
caps are in place, making sure that the holes Ain the flame caps correspond to the spark plugs and
thermocouples.
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 in diameter.
The supplied reduction rest Cis used also 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 flame 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 a little longer.
This operation is not necessary for burners without thermocouples.
For models with thermocouples, should the burner accidentally go out, a safety device will be activated
which stops the gas flow even if the tap is open.
7.2 Practical advice for using the hob burners
For better use of the burners and lower gas consumption, use covered vessel that are proportional in
size to the burner to prevent the flame from licking the sides (see paragraph “ 7.3 Diameter of the
vessels to be used on each burner”). When water reaches the boiling point, lower the flame so that it
doesn’t overflow. To avoid burns or damage to the hob, all vessels or griddle plates must be placed within
the perimeter of the hob. All vessels must 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.

MAIN OVEN THERMOSTAT KNOB
Selection of cooking temperature is carried out by turning the knob clockwise to
the required temperature, between 50° and 260°C.
If the appliance has an electric oven, the warning light will come on when the
oven is heating up. When it goes out it means that the required temperature has

9. USE OF THE OVEN
For the models with electronic programmer, before using the oven make sure that the display shows the
symbol .
9.1 Warnings and general advice
Using the oven and the grill for the first time, heat them to the maximum temperature (260°C) 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 show . To adjust refer to paragraph "11.
ELECTRONIC PROGRAMMER ”
During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium or tin foil and do not place pans or
oven trays on it as this may damage the enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper, place it so
that it will not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven.
Oven accessories which may come into contact with foods are made from materials complying with the
requirements of the current directive.
To prevent problems caused by steam in the oven, open the door in two stages:
half open (5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and then fully open.
To access food, always leave the door open as short a time as possible to
prevent the temperature in the oven from falling and ruining the food.
9.2 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.
9.3 Use of the electric grill
For short cooking times, for example for browning already-cooked meat, select the static grill function ;
set the thermostat knob to maximum temperature (260°C). The ventilated grill function allows actual
cooking to be done, thanks to the forced ventilation which lets heat penetrate inside the food. For this
type of cooking select the ventilated grill function , set the thermostat knob to the desired cooking
temperature (never more than 225°C). Cooking time must not exceed 60 minutes.
9.3.1 Operation of the grill + rotisserie (only on some models)
The function can be used for cooking in combination with the rotisserie. Fit the spit rod into the
rotisserie bushing, select the or fan grill function and set the thermostat knob to maximum temperature
(260°C).
Cooking procedures with grill and rotisserie must never last more than 60 minutes.
All cooking procedures with grill + rotisserie must be carried out with the door closed to prevent the
knobs and front panel of the appliance from overheating.

Instructions for the user

Fit the supporting frame onto the second runner
up from the bottom so that the seat to take the
rod projects outside the oven. Place the rod as
shown in the diagram (1) and push the frame
into the oven until the end of the rod reaches
the hole in the rotisserie motor. Now push the
rotisserie rod to the left until it reaches the
position shown in the diagram (2). To activate
this function, turn the knob to ( / ).
These operations must be carried out with the
oven switched off and cold.
When cooking is over, use the tool provided to
extract the rod from the hole (3) and remove the
frame (4) to bring the rotisserie rod out of the
oven cavity.

9.3.2 How to use the grill
Once the grill is lit, the red warning light will come on. Leave the oven to heat up for five minutes
before placing the food inside.
Food should be flavoured and basted with oil or melted butter before cooking. An oven dish should be
used to contain the sauces. The food should be placed on the oven shelf which is positioned on one of
the guides supplied with the different ovens, following the instructions below:
FOOD GRILLE ON THE SHELF
Flat or thin meat 3
Rolled roast joints 2 - 3
Poultry 2 - 3
9.4 WARNING
• Cooking procedures in this mode must never last more than 60 minutes.
• In models with electric oven, the door must be close during grilling and grill-rotisserie cooking.
• To avoid dangerous overheating when the oven or the grill is used, the glass cover must always be
up.
• During and after use the accessible parts of the oven may be very hot, and children must always be
kept at a distance.
• During cooking with the rotisserie, one of the oven trays provided with the cooker should be placed in
the bottom of the oven, inserting it on the bottom runners, in order to collect the grease and fats which
may be formed.
• When using the oven, remove all unused baking sheets and shelves from the interior.
9.5 Storage compartment
A storage compartment, accessible by pulling on the top edge of the
door, is located beneath the oven.
Never store flammable materials such as rags, paper or the like. The
compartment is intended only for holding the metal accessories of the
range.
Never open the storage compartment when the oven is on and still hot. The temperature inside may be
very high.
