[. . . ] Turn off all the burners and the electric plates before closing the lid. * Practical advice on using the burners For the burners to work in the most efficient way possible and to save on the amount of gas consumed, it is recommended that only pans that have a lid and a flat base are used. They should also be suited to the size of the burner. Burner Fast (R) Semi Fast (S) Auxiliary (A) ø Cookware diameter (cm) 24 - 26 16 - 20 10 - 14 To identify the type of burner, please refer to the diagrams contained in the “Burner and nozzle specifications”. On the models supplied with a reducer shelf, remember that this should be used only for the auxiliary burner when you use casserole dishes with a diameter under 12 cm. The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the room is well ventilated before switching the oven off and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective substances used during the manufacturing process burning away. Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being damaged. Only use position 1 in the oven when cooking with the rotisserie spit. Flame adjustment according to levels the burner flame intensity can be adjusted with the knob according to 6 power levels, from maximum to minimum with 4 intermediate positions: a click will indicate the change from one level to another when turning the knob. The system guarantees a more precise adjustment, allows to replicate the flame intensity and to identify easily the preferred level for different cooking operations. * Only available in certain models 8 Lighting the oven To light the oven burner, bring a flame or gas lighter close to opening F (see figure) and press the OVEN control knob while turning it in an anticlockwise direction until it reaches the MAX position. The grill is fitted with a safety device and it is therefore necessary to hold the OVEN control knob down for approximately 6 seconds. If the flame is accidentally extinguished, switch off the burner and wait for at least 1 minute before attempting to relight the grill. Turnspit* GB F If the appliance is fitted with an electronic lighting device* (see figure), press the OVEN knob and turn it in an anticlockwise direction, towards the MAX position, until the burner is lit. If, after 15 seconds, the burner is still not alight, release the knob, open the oven door and wait for at least 1 minute before trying to light it again. If there is no electricity the burner may be lit using a flame or a lighter, as described above. The oven is fitted with a safety device and it is therefore necessary to hold the OVEN control knob down for approximately 6 seconds. If the flame is accidentally extinguished, switch off the burner and wait for at least 1 minute before attempting to relight the oven. Adjusting the temperature To set the desired cooking temperature, turn the OVEN control knob in an anticlockwise direction. Temperatures are displayed on the control panel and may vary between MIN (150°C) and MAX (250°C). [. . . ] We recommend that the oven is not used until the seals have been replaced. Gas tap maintenance Over time, the taps may become jammed or difficult to turn. If this happens, the tap must be replaced. This procedure must be performed by a qualified technician authorised by the manufacturer. [. . . ]
