2. INSTRUCTIONS FOR DISPOSAL - OUR CONCERN FOR THE
ENVIRONMENT
Our product's packing is made of non-polluting materials, which are therefore compatible with the
environment and recyclable. Please help by disposing of the packaging correctly. You can obtain the
addresses of collection, recycling and disposal centres from your retailer or from the competent local
organisations.
Do not throw the packing or any part of it away. It can constitute a suffocation hazard for children,
especially the plastic bags.
Your old appliance also needs to be disposed of correctly.
Important: hand over your appliance to the local agency authorised for the collection of electrical
appliances no longer in use. Correct disposal enables intelligent recovery of valuable materials.
Before disposing of your old appliance, remove the door and leave the racks in their normal working
positions so that children cannot get stuck in the oven compartment whilst playing. It is also necessary to
cut the interconnecting cable to the power supply network, removing it along with the plug.
Pursuant to Directives 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC relating to the reduction of the use of
hazardous substances in electrical and electronic appliances, as well as to the disposal of refuse, the
crossed out bin symbol on the appliance indicates that at the end of the useful life of the product, it must
be collected separately from other refuse. At the end of the appliance's lifespan, the user must,
therefore, deliver it to the appropriate differentiated collection centres for electrical and electronic waste,
or deliver it back to the retailer when purchasing an equivalent product, on a one-for-one basis.
Adequate differentiated collection for the subsequent forwarding of the decommissioned product to
recycling, processing and ecologically compatible disposal contributes to avoiding any negative effects
on the environment and on health and promotes the recycling of the appliance's constituent materials.
Illicit disposal of the product by the user will result in the application of administrative sanctions.

8. USING THE COOKING HOB
8.1 Lighting the hob burners
Before lighting the hob burners, check that the flame-spreader crowns are correctly in place with their
respective burner caps, making sure that the holes A in the flame-spreaders are aligned with the igniters
and thermocouples.
Before lighting the burners, lift the glass lid; before closing it again, turn off all the burners and wait for
them to cool.
The optional rack B is for use with woks.
To prevent damage to the cooking hob, the cooker comes complete with a raised rack Cfor use
underneath pans more than 26 cm in diameter.
the supplied reduction Cis for use with small pans as well.
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 anticlockwise to the minimum flame symbol , until it lights. On
valved models, once the burner is lit, keep the knob pressed for a few seconds
to give the thermocouple time 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 keeping the knob pressed for
longer. This is not necessary on burners that are not equipped with a
thermocouple.
On models with a thermocouple, if the burners should go out accidentally a safety device will be tripped,
cutting off the gas supply even if the gas tap is open.
8.2 Practical hints for using the hob burners
For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption: use pans with lids and of a suitable size
for the burner, so that the flames do not reach up the sides of the pan (see paragraph “8.3 Pan
diameters”). Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to ensure that the liquid
does not boil over. To prevent burns or damage to the hob during cooking, all pans or griddles must be
placed inside the perimeter of the hob. All pans must have smooth, flat bottoms. Take the greatest care
when using fats or oils since they may catch fire if overheated. If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off
the control knob and wait at least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner.

9. SUSING THE OVEN
9.1 Warnings and general advice
Before using the oven and the grill for the first time, pre-heat to maximum temperature (260°C for electric
ovens and 275°C for gas ovens) long enough to burn any manufacturing oily residues which could give
the food a bad smell.
During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium or tin foil and do not place pans or
trays on it as this may damage the enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper, position it so
that it does not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven.
WARNING: the gas oven must be lit with the oven door open. The oven is equipped with a safety
system that blocks ignition of the burner if the door is closed. If you make a mistake in the
lighting procedure, open the oven door and wait a few minutes before trying to light it again.
To prevent any steam in the oven from creating problems, open the door in two
stages: half open (5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and then fully open. If you
need to access the food, always leave the door open for as short a time as
possible to prevent the temperature in the oven from falling and ruining the
food. When the door is opened, oven ventilation is automatically switched off; it
then resumes as soon as the door is closed.
9.2 Cooling system
The oven is equipped with a cooling system which automatically comes on a few minutes after the oven
is turned on. The fan causes 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 Using the gas oven
9.3.1 Electronic spark ignition
Open the oven door fully, press the thermostat knob and turn it anticlockwise to
the maximum temperature; the electric spark ignition is activated automatically.
When the oven is lit, keep the knob pressed down for a few seconds to allow the
thermocouple to heat up. If the burner does not ignite after 15 seconds, stop
attempting to light it, open the oven door completely and do not try to light it again
for at least 1 minute.
9.3.2 Manual ignition
Open the oven door fully and turn the thermostat knob. Bring a lighted match
close to the mouth of flame pipe Aat the centre of the oven surface and press the
thermostat knob. Once it is lit, keep the knob pressed down for a few seconds to
allow the thermocouple to heat up and make sure that it has remained lit by
looking through inspection hole B. The cooking temperature is selected by
turning the knob clockwise to the desired setting, between 50° and 275°C.
If the burner is extinguished accidentally, turn the knob to the off position ( ) and wait at least
one minute before trying to light it again.

9.4 Using the electric grill
9.4.1 Using the grill in cookers with an electric oven
For short cooking procedures, such as final browning of cooked meat, select the static grill function
and turn the thermostat knob to the maximum temperature setting. The fan-assisted grill function (on
some models only) allows real cooking processes to be carried out, thanks to the forced fan system that
allows the heat to penetrate inside the food. For this type of cooking operation, select the fan-assisted
grill function and use the thermostat knob to set the ideal cooking temperature (in all cases no more
than 200°C).
9.4.2 Using the grill in cookers with a gas oven
To use this function you must first extinguish the oven burner by moving the
relevant knob to the OFF position and then turning the selector to the

13.4.3 Connection with flexible steel hose (for all types of gas)
This type of connection can be made on both built-in and free-standing appliances.
Only use standards-compliant steel hoses whose length is not greater than 2
metres.
Screw the end of the flexible hose L to the ½” OD threaded gas connector (ISO
228-1) B placing the seal C between them.
At the end of the installation, check for any leaks with a soapy solution, never
with a flame.
