3. ENVIRONMENTAL CARE
3.1 Our environmental care
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 the product, at the end of its working life, must be
collected separately from other refuse. Therefore, the user must consign the
product that has reached the end of its working life to the appropriate selective
collection centres for electrical and electronic refuse, or deliver it back to the
retailer when purchasing an equivalent product, on a one for one basis.
Adequate selective collection for the subsequent forwarding of the
decommissioned product to recycling, treatment and ecologically compatible
disposal contributes to avoiding possible negative effects on the environment
and on health and promotes the recycling of the materials of which the
appliance consists. Illicit disposal of the product by the user will lead to the
application of administrative sanctions.
The product does not contain substances in quantities sufficient to be
considered hazardous to health and the environment, in accordance with
current European directives.
3.2 Your environmental care
Our product's packaging is made of non-polluting materials, 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 discard the packaging or any part of it, or leave it unattended. 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 appliance it is important to remove doors and leave

6. USING THE COOKING HOB
6.1 General warnings and advice
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 1
in the flame-spreaders are aligned with the plugs 3and thermocouples 2.
6.2 Lighting the hob burners
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 lighter. 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 “0” and wait 60
seconds before trying again. After lighting, keep the knob pressed down 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, keeping the knob pressed for
longer.
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. In this case, turn the knob to the
OFF position and wait at least 60 seconds before trying to light the burner again.

Instructions for the user
67
6.3 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 “6.4 Cookware diameters”). Once the contents
come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to ensure
that the liquid does not boil over.
If any liquid does boil over or spill, remove the excess from the hob. 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.
If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait at least 1
minute before trying to re-light the burner.
Take the greatest care when using fats or oils since they may catch fire if
overheated.

7. USING THE OVEN
7.1 Before using the appliance
• Remove any labels (apart from the technical data plate) from trays, dripping
pans and the cooking compartment.
• Remove any protective film from the outside or inside of the appliance,
including accessories such as trays, dripping pans, the pizza plate or the
base cover.
• Before using the appliance for the first time, remove all accessories from the
oven compartment and wash them as indicated in “9. CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE”.
Heat the empty appliance to the maximum temperature in order to remove
any manufacturing residues which could affect the food with unpleasant odours.
7.2 Cooling system
The appliance is equipped with a cooling system which comes into operation as
soon as a cooking function starts. The fan causes a steady outflow of air that
exits from the rear of the appliance and which may continue for a brief period of
time even after the appliance has been turned off.
7.3 Storage compartment
The storage compartment is in the bottom of the cooker, underneath the ovens.
To open it, pull on the bottom of the door.
It provides storage space for the appliance’s metal accessories and must not be
used to store flammable materials, cloths, paper etc.
Do not open the storage compartment when the oven is on and still hot. The
temperatures inside it may be very high.
7.4 Internal oven lights
The oven lights switch on by selecting any function.

Instructions for the user
70
7.5 General warnings and advice for use
All cooking operations must be carried out with the door closed. The
dissipation of heat may cause hazards.
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.
For the best cooking results, we recommend
placing cookware in the centre of the rack.
To prevent any steam in the oven from causing
problems, open the door in two stages: keep it
half open (5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and
then open it fully. 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.
To prevent excessive amounts of condensation from forming on the internal
glass, hot food should not be left inside the oven for too long after cooking.
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.
Heat the empty appliance to the maximum temperature in order to remove
any manufacturing residues which could affect the food with unpleasant odours.
