Control knobs on the front panel
The knobs for using the gas hob are found on the control
panel. The regulation knobs should be turned in anti-
clockwise direction until the small flame symbol, and
vice-versa for the larger symbol.

Ignition of gas burners
To ignite a burner, before positioning the saucepan,
hold a flame near the burner, push the corresponding
knob in completely and turn in an anticlockwise direction
to the maximum position; upon ignition regulate the
flame as re uired.
Remember that a wide-bottomed pan allows a faster
cooking than a narrow one.
Always use pots which properly fit what you have to
cook.
Particularly make sure that the pans are not too small
for li uids, since these could easily overflow.
Moreover, the pans should not be too large for a faster
cooking. In fact, grease and juices may spread on the
bottom and burn easily.
It is better to use non-openable moulds for baking cakes.
In fact, an openable mould lets juices and sugar leak
through, falling on the bottom of the oven and
conse uently burning on the bottom of the baking tray,
making cleaning difficult.
Avoid putting plastic-handled pans in the oven as they
are not heat-proof.
You should use oans with the right diameter to fit the
burner, in order to make the most out of it, thus reducing
gas consumption as in Fig. 1.
It is also advisable to cover any boiling casserole and,
as soon as the li uid starts boiling, lower the flame
enough to keep the boiling point.
Using the hob
In models provided with automatic ignition, use the
appropriate switch marked by a small spark ( ), push
the corresponding knob in completely and turn in an
anticlockwise direction to the maximum position; upon
ignition regulate the flame as re uired.
If after a few attempts the burner does not ignite, check
that the baffle and its cap are correctly positioned.
To interrupt the supply of gas, turn the knob in a
clockwise direction to the position " ".
During cooking, when using fats or oils, take
particular care as they can, when over-
heated, self-ignite.

Ignition
 Open the oven door and hold a flame near the hole in
the bottom as shown in fig. 2;
 push the oven knob in (Fig. 3) and turn it anti-
lo kwise until the maximum temperature position is
rea hed;
 keep the oven knob pressed in for approximately 5
se onds until the safety valve automati ally keeps
the oven burner lit.
If the burner does not light first time, keep the oven door
open and wait 1 minute at least before repeating the
operation. On e the oven has been lit, adjust the flame
as required.
To adjust automati ally the flame, turn the oven knob to
the position orresponding to the temperature desired,
after a few minutes of work.
When cooking with the oven, the lid must be
kept open to avoid over-heating.
Dripping pan
The oven is equipped with an enamelled dripping-pan
whi h fun tion is to olle t the jui es dripping from the
meat on the grill or on the spit, and a grid for the ooking
of foods on the grill or in a pan.
In models provided with oven grids with a position at h
(fig. 4) and when ooking on the grill or on the spit, you
are advised to fit the dripping-pan (A-fig. 4) in the guides
beneath the grill (B-fig. 4) to avoid dirtying the oven.
if you need to pla e the dripping-pan over the oven grid
during ooking, position it as shown in the parti ular of
Fig. 4.
Electric grill
Press and turn the knob lo kwise until the stop position
is rea hed , at the same time the grill ontrol light
will ome on. Pla e the dripping pan under the wire shelf
so as to prevent fat from dripping on the bottom of the
oven.

Coo ing with the turnspit
Some models may be equipped with a turnspit. For
correct use, proceed as follows:
 fit the spit-holder hook on the support (fig. 6);
 slide the spit into the food to be cooked and secure
well;
 rest the front part of the spit on the hook, ensuring
that the point of the spit is well inserted into the
rotisserie motor housing (fig. 6);
 remove the handle;
 turn the oven knob to the grill position or, when
required for some models, turn on the motor by
means of the appropriate switch placed on the
control panel.
When cooking with the turnspit you are advised to leave
the oven door half open and to fit the knob protection
shield as shown in fig.5.
Models with oven lamp switch
The oven lamp switch allows you to turn on the oven
internal illumination.
Fig. 6 FO 0706
When using the oven for the first time:
a) set the thermostat knob to MAX;
b) allow the oven to run empty for appro imately
45 minutes;
c) open a window for ventilation.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted.
This is absolutely normal, and is caused by residues of
manufacturing.
Once this operation is carried out, let the oven cool down,
then clean the oven cavity with a soft cloth soaked in warm
soapy water.
Before cooking for the first time, carefully wash the grid
and the dripping pan.

Suggestions for gas burners
Start your cooking with a big flame by turning the knob
to the symbol . Then adjust the flame as necessary.
The outside of the flame is much hotter than its inside
(nucleus). Accordingly , the top of the flame should lick
the bottom of the pan. E cessive flames mean a waste
of gas.
In contrast with electric grids, gas burners do not require
flat-bottomed pans: the flames lick the bottom and
spread the heat all over the surface.
No special pans are required for gas burners. However,
thinwalled pans transmit the heat to the food more
quickly than thick-walled ones.
Since heat doesn't spread evenly on the pan's bottom,
the food may only be partially heated. Consequently it
is advisable to stir the food many times.
A thick pan bottom prevents partial overheating as it
allows sufficient thermic compensation.
Avoid very small pans. Wide and shallow pans are more
suitable than narrow and deep ones as they allow a
faster heating. Cooking is not quickened by placing
narrow pans on wide burners. The result is just a waste
of gas. For a proper usage, place small pans on small
burners and large pans on large burners.
Remember to cover pans to reduce gas consumption.
Traditional coo ing
Heat derives from the top and the bottom, it is therefore
preferable to use the central guides. If cooking requires
more heat from the bottom or the top, use the upper or
lower guides.
Using the traditional oven
For the cooking of cakes
Pre-heat the oven , unless indicated differently, for at
least 10 minutes before use. Do not open the oven door
when cooking dishes which must raise (e.g. raised
pastries and soufflés); the jet of cold air would block the
raising process. To check if cakes are cooked, insert a
toothpick into the mi ture; if it comes out clean the cake
is ready. Wait until at least 3/4 of the cooking time has
passed before doing this check.
As a general rule remember that:
a dish which is well-cooked on the outside but not
sufficiently cooked inside would have required a lower
temperature and longer cooking time. On the contrary,
a dry te ture would have required a shorter time and
higher cooking temperature.
For the cooking of meat
Meat to be cooked in the oven should weigh at least 1
kilo to avoid its becoming too dry. If you want roasts
with a good colour, use very little oil. If the piece is lean,
use oil or butter or a little of both. Butter or oil are on the
other hand unnecessary if the piece has a strip of fat. If
the piece has a strip of fat on one side only, put it in the
oven with this side upwards; when melting the fat will
grease the lower side sufficiently.
Red meat should be removed from the fridge one hour
before cooking otherwise the sudden change of tempe-
rature could cause it to become tough. A roast,
especially if of red meat, must not be salted at the
beginning of cooking as salt causes juices and blood to
seep out of the òmeat, thus preventing the formation of
a well-browned crust.
It is advisable to salt the outside of the meat after just
over half the cooking time.
Place the roast in the oven in a dish having a low rim; a
deep dish shields heat.
Meat can be placed on an ovenproof dish or directly on
the grill, under which the dripping pan will be inserted to
collect juice. Ingredients for gravy should only be put in
the dish immediately if cooking time is brief, otherwise
they should be added during the last half hour.
Begin cooking rare meat at a high temperature, reducing
the temperature to finish cooking the inside.
The cooking temperature for white meat can be mode-
rate throughout.
The degree of cooking can be checked by pressing the
meat with a fork; if it does not give the meat is cooked.
At the end of cooking it is advisable to wait at least 15
minutes before cutting the meat in order that the juices
are not lost.
Before serving plates can be kept warm in the oven at
minimum temperature.
Suggestions for using the oven

64
For the cooking of fish:
Cook small fish from start to finish at a high temperatu-
re. Cook medium-sized fish initially at a high tempera-
ture and then gradually lower the temperature.
Cook large fish at a moderate temperature from start to
finish.
Check that baked fish is cooked by gently lifting one side
of the gut; the meat must be white and opaque
throughout, e cept in the case of salmon, trout or
similar.
Grilling
The following types of meat are suitable for grilling.
Mostly meat or offal cut in slices or pieces of various
sizes, but not usually very thick, poultry cut in half and
flattened, fish, some vegetables (e.g. courgettes,
aubergines, tomatoes, etc.), skewers of meat or fish and
seafood.
Meat and fish to be grilled should be lightly brushed with
oil and always placed on the grill; meat should be salted
upon completion of cooking; whereas fish should be
salted on the inside before cooking. The grill should be
positioned in the guides nearest or furthest from the grill
element according to the thickness of the meat, in order
to avoid burning the surface and cooking the inside
insufficiently.
The formation of smoke caused by drops of juice and fat
can be avoided by pouring l or 2 glasses of water into
the dripping pan.
The grill can also be used to brown, toast bread and grill
certain types of fruit, such as bananas, halved grapefruit,
slices of pineapple, apples, etc. Fruit should not be
placed too near the source of heat.
Cooking times
Cooking times can vary according to the type of food,
its consistency and its volume. It is advisable to watch
when cooking for the first time and check results since
when preparing the same dishes, in the same
conditions, similar results are obtained.
The TABLE OF COOKING TIMES relating to cooking
in the oven and by grill is provided as a guide.
E perience will show possible variations to the values
set out in the table.
Nevertheless carefully follow the indications given
in the receipe you intend to follow.
Attention: do not place any utensils such as dripping
pan, cake tins, casseroles, pyre dishes, aluminium foil
or other on the base of the oven when the oven is in use.
A stagnation of heat would result which would compro-
mise the results of cooking and could damage the oven
enamel.

Before each operation, disconnect the
appliance.
Cleaning the coo er
Drops of sauce, fruit juice etc., should be removed as
soon as possible with a soft cloth soaked in warm
detergent water. Do not use steel wool or knives to take
off layers of crust. Remove stubborn marks with a well
wetted soap impregnated pad, but care must be taken
not to scratch the enamel. Wash the enamelled grids
with water and detergent; these can also be washed a
dishwasher.
Take off the burner covers and the grids and wash them
carefully with warm water and detergent. Dry them well
before putting them back in position.
Moreover, make sure that these are properly re-placed.
The burner can be rubbed with steel wool or a slightly
abrasive cloth.
Clean the oven door and crystal cover, in models
equipped with these items, only with warm water, and
avoid the use of rough cloths or abrasive substances; in
cookers with an automatic ignition the sparkling bulb
should be cleaned periodically and accurately to avoid
difficulties in lighting; furthermore check that the burner
holes are not obstructed.
Cleaning the oven
Clean carefully the oven cavity after use when it is still
warm. In fact, at this moment it is easy to take off
deposits of fat or other substances such as fruit juice,
sugar particles or fat. You can use warm detergent water
or one of the appropriate spray oven cleaners. Do not
direct the spray at the mat steel parts as this could
damage them and always follow the manufacturer's
instructions. Clean the oven acces-sories (grate, grid-
plate etc.) with warm water and detergent.
Remove possible incrustations with a slightly abrasive
powder.
Never line any part of the oven with
aluminium foil. It would result in an
accumulation of heat which might damage
the cooking results and also damage the
enamel.
Controls - Sundries
Periodically check the condition of the fle ible pipe of
gas connection and make it replaced by skilled
technicians as soon as it shows abnormalities. Annual
replacement is recommended.
Have the cocks periodically lubricated by skilled
technicians. In case of unusual working have the range
checked by skilled technicians.
In ranges with cylinder holder, do not use this space to
leave a non-connected or an empty cylinder.
Oven lamp replacement (Fig. 9)
Disconnect the appliance. Unscrew the lamp and
substitute it with another fitting for a higher tempera-
ture (300°C) with the folowing characteristics:
Tension: 230 V (50Hz)
Power: 15W
Convection: E14
Cleaning the oven door
For a more complete cleaning of the oven door, it is
advisable to disassemble it in the following way (Fig.
10): open the door fully, turn the two caps situated on
the arm of the hinge to 180°, partially close the door to
an angle of 30°, lift the door and e tract from the front.
Re-mount the door by reversing the operation described
above.

Lid cleaning
All the cooker lids can be disassembled, to allow a
better cleaning.
Enamelled lids can be dissasembled as shown in fig.
11.
After a proper cleaning, carefully reposition the lid into
its hinges.
Models with catalytic side panels
The catalytic side panels can neutralise most food and
splashes of grease when the temperature e ceeds
220°C.
To facilitate cleaning, it is advisable to heat the oven,
empty, above this temperature for 1 to 2 hours a week.
Practical advice:
lManual cleaning of catalytic side panels is not
advisable.
lThese side panels are irremediably damaged by the
use of sprays, steel wool soaked in soap or other
detergents.
lWith time some discolouring of the side panels may
occur. This will not affect the catalytic action.
lOnce the side panels are saturated the cleaning
process ceases. This does not effect the appliances
operation.
lFollow the advice given below in order to reduce to a
minimum the formation of splashes in the oven.
How to diminish splashes? Some advice:
Always cook at the recommended temperature. When
roasting, temperatures which are too high can contribute
to the formation of splashes.
Try to cook at lower temperatures (do not, of course,
forget to adapt cooking times). You will save energy and
roasted meat will be much more tender.
Use only a small quantity of fat or oil, or even no fat at
all when roasting meat. The addition of fat when grilling
or roasting contributes to the formation of splashes of
fat.
It is unnecessary to add water when roasting or grilling
meat. The addition of water and the meat juices will
contribute, during the cooking process, to the formation
of fat splashes and condensation.
The side panels are better protected against splashes if
the dish containing the roast is covered. In this case
the covering must be removed 20-30 minutes before the
end of cooking; meat will be roasted better on the
outside.
Some large pieces of meat and turkey can certainly be
cooked in this way; the inside will thus be cooked before
the outside burns.
Always use the dripping pan when roasting or grilling
meat.
The long life of your catalytic side panels is dependent
on your following this fundamental advice.

Something not working
l The flow of gas seems abnormal
l Gas smell in the room
l The oven doesn't heat
l Cooking time is too long
l The cooker produces smoke
l The oven lamp doesn't work
If the appliance doesn't work properly check the following points before asking for service:
Make sure that:
 the flame speader holes are not obstructed;
 the pressure regulator is working;
 the bottle valve is completely open.
Make sure that:
 the gas valve is not open;
 the gas supply tube is well positioned and in good
condition; remember to replace it at least once a
year.
Never look for an escape of gas with a match;
use instead soapy water.
 Make sure that the oven knobs are in the correct
worrking positions.
 Check that the temperature is correct for the type

Positioning
This appliance belongs to the class "X". It has been
designed to be placed close to furniture units not
e ceeding the height of the working level (EN 60 335-2-6)
Levelling
The appliance is provided with adjustable small feet
placed in the back and front corners od the base.
By adjusting the small feet (fig.12) it is possible to
change the height of the appliance so as to ensure a
better levelling with other surfaces and a uniform
distribution of the liquids contained in pans or pots.
Gas connection
Gas connection must be carried out according to the
rules in force. The manufacturing company release the
unit, once tested, adjusted for the kind of gas stated on
the rating plate located on the back of the range, ne t to
connection pipe. Be sure that you are going to connect
the unit to the same kind of gas written on the plate.
Connection using a rigid pipe or
a flexible metal pipe
To ensure higher safety, it is recommended to carry out
the connection to the gas system using rigid pipes (e .
copper) or using fle ible stainless steel pipes, to avoid
any stress to the unit. Gas feeding pipe fitting is Gc 1/
2. For this type of installation, connection to the gas
supply should be carried out using only and e clusively
fle ible metallic tubes in conformity with rules in force.
Connection using flexible non
metal pipes
When the connection can be easily inspected in its full
e tent, there is the chance to use a fle ible pipe
according to the rules in force. The fle ible pipe must be
tightly fi ed using clamps according to the rules in force.
The fle ible pipe should be made ready for use in such
a way that:
- nowhere it can reach overtemperature, other than
room temperature, higher than 30°C; if the fle ible
pipe, to reach the cock, must run behind the range,
it must be installed as shown in Fig. 14;
- it is no longer than 1500 mm;
- it shows no throttles;
- it is not subject to traction or torsion;
- it doesn't get in touch with cutting edges or corners;
- it can be easily inspected in order to check its
condition.
The control of preservation of the fle ible pipe consists
in checking that:
- it doesn't show cracks, cuts, marks of burnings both
on the end parts and on its full e tent;
- the material is not hardened, but shows its normal
elasticity;
- the fastening clamps are not rusted;
- e piry term is not due.
If one or more abnormalities are seen, do not repair the
pipe, but replace it.
IMPORTANT
Once installation is complete, check the perfect
seal of every pipe fitting, using a soapy solution,
never a flame.

Electrical connection
The unit is preset to work with a voltage of single phase
230 V.
Before making the connection make sure that:
 the energy power available in the user's house is
sufficient for the normal supply of this appliance (see
rating plate).
 the unit is correctly connected to earth through a
suitable plug and according to the installation country
Laws.
 the socket or the omnipolar switch used for the
connection must be easilv reached with the installed
appliance.
The appliance is supplied without electric plug:
consequently, you have to install a plug fit for the load
shown in the serial number plate. The plug has to be
connected to an adequate socket.
If you wish to directly connect to the mains, you have to
interpose an omnipolar switch with a minimum opening
between contacts of 3 mm, between the unit and the
mains, complying with the e isting regulations. The
brown live wire (originating from the clamp of the cooker
junction bo ) must always be connected to the phase
of the mains supply. In any case, the supply cord must
be positioned in such a way as it doesn't reach in any
point a temperature higher by 50°C than the room tem-
perature.
Should the supply cord need to be replaced, use only
the following cable types:
H05RR-F / H05VV-F / H05V2V2-F (T90). It is necessary
that the yellow/green earth wire is about 2cm longer than
the live and neutral ones (Fig. 19).
After the connection, test the heating elements for about
3 minutes to ensure that they are working correctly.
The manufacturer refuses any responsability in
cases where normal safety measures are not
observed.
