The”7 Programms” oven is extremely versatile and offers 7 different but sure and easy ways of cooking.

To assure the long life of the cooker, it must be thoroughly cleaned frequently, keeping in mind that: · Do not use steam equipment to clean the appliance. The enamelled parts and the self-cleaning panels are washed with warm water without using any abrasive powders or corrosive substances which could ruin them; · The inside of the oven should be cleaned fairly often while it is still warm using warm water and detergent, followed by careful rinsing and drying; · The flame spreaders should be washed frequently with hot water and detergent taking care to eliminate any scale; · In cookers equipped with automatic lighting, the terminal part of the electronic instant lighting devices should be cleaned frequently and the gas outlet holes of the flame spreaders should be checked to make sure they are free of any obstructions; · The electric plates are cleaned with a damp cloth and they should be lubricated with a little oil while they still warm; · Stainless steel may become marked if it comes into contact with very hard water or harsh detergents (containing phosphorous) for long periods of time. On models with glass covers, the covers should be cleaned with hot water; the use of rough cloths or abrasives is to be avoided. [. . . ]
