CONNECTING THE COOKER TOTHE GAS SUPPLY
Before installing the cooker to the gas supply system, ensure that the appliance is
compatible with the local distribution conditions (nature of the gas and gas
pressure). In the event of incompatibility replace the nozzles and adjust the gas
fittings.
The connection should be made in accordance with the regulations in force and by
a certified installer.
• The cooker may be connected to the natural gas supply or to an LPG cylinder (LPG
jets not supplied). The appliance is supplied with natural gas burners fitted.
• The cooker may be connected to the natural gas supply with a rigid connection or by
means of a flexible hose manufactured to current safety regulations.
• Use a rubber hose with a safety certificate to connect the appliance to an LPG
cylinder.
• Every time the cooker has been connected to an LPG cylinder, check the cylinder
valve for soundness, the connection of the regulator to the cylinder as well as its
operation.
NOTE!
1. Under no circumstances should the gas soundness be checked by means of a
naked flame (e.g. with a match or candle) as there is a danger of explosion!
2. Regularly check the condition of the hose and soundness of the connection in
accordance with the regulations in force.

USING THE HOB
Before using the cooker for the first time
you should:
• Read the operating and safety
instructions thoroughly.
• If applicable, remove the remnants of
stickers and glue from the gas hob,
surfaces of hobs, pan supports and
oven door.
• Ensure that all elements of the
burners are positioned correctly.
Press and turn the control knob to the
large flame position. Press and hold the
ignition button downwards until ignition
has started (Fig. 5).

• The flame should not lick around from the bottom of a pan but cover only two-thirds of
its surface.This will reduce the gas consumption and prevent the flame from soiling the
utensils.
• The size of the flame depends on the position of the knob.The full flame should be
used until the dish begins to boil, then it is better to use the simmering flame.
• Burners and ignitor tips should be kept clean, as dirt adversely affects the
performance.
• Before removing an item off a burner, reduce the flame or turn the burner off
completely.
• Before switching on a burner, make sure that the knob you are going to use
corresponds to the burner you wish to switch on.The relationship between knobs and
burners is shown in Fig. 5.
Operating burners supplied from an LPG cylinder.
Before lighting the first burner, open the valve on the LPG cylinder. Then light the burner
using one of the methods described above.
When closing the flow of gas before turning off the last burner:
• Close the valve on the LPG cylinder.
• When the flame has gone out, close the tap of that burner.When the cooker is not
used, the valve of the LPG cylinder should be closed.

COOKWARE
CHOICE OF UTENSILS
Pots should not be too tall, ideally their height should equal two-thirds of the diameter of
their bottom. Utensils should always be clean and dry as they will then conduct and retain
the heat better.
During cooking you should use the pan lids.This will prevent an excess of odours from
accumulating in the kitchen.
The pan is too small for the burner
and the lid is not being used
Fig. 6
Correctly selected pan
GRILL
The grill and oven have a flame failure device.This ensures
that no gas escapes if the flames are extinguished. A thermal
cut-off prevents the oven from overheating if the temperature
exceeds safety limits.
Before using the grill for the first time it is recommended to
turn and leave the grill turned on for a period so residues
from manufacture are burnt away. A smell on initial use is
normal and not a malfunction.
Turn the light on by pressing only the top half of the button
(Fig. 5).
Fig. 7
Turn the control knob to the large flame position and press
and hold the bottom half of the ignition button until the grill
burner ignites (Fig. 7). For high heat leave the control on the
large flame position.To lower the heat level turn the control
towards the small flame position.
When grilling it is recommended to close the grill door. If the
door is left open, fit the heat deflector (Fig. 9. It may get hot
in use.

clean the nozzle use a brush soaked in
solvent.
• Dry all the elements of the burner carefully
as wet elements may not light properly.
Assemble clean and dry burners carrying out
the disassembly steps in the reverse order.
CLEANING THE OVEN
The oven compartment is coated with vitreous enamel.To clean particularly difficult burnt
spots, special oven cleaning agents may be used. However, as these agents are caustic,
be careful when using them and follow the agents’/manufacturers’ guidelines.
To make cleaning easier the oven door may be removed (Fig. 12).
