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) Triple Crown (TC) Cookware Diameter (cm) 24 - 26 16 - 20 10 - 14 24 - 26 !For models equipped with a reducer grid, the latter must be used only for the auxiliary burner, when pans with a diameter of less than 12 cm are used. 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. If more than one rack is used, the heat will be distributed in an uneven manner. / GRATIN mode The top heating element and the rotisserie (where present) are activated and the fan begins to operate. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation provided by the heating elements through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from burning on the surface and allows the heat to penetrate right into the food. The GRILL and GRATIN cooking modes must be performed with the oven door shut. GB BAKING mode The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate and uniform manner throughout the entire oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes that need to rise) and for the preparation of pastries on 3 shelves simultaneously. FAST COOKING mode The heating elements and the fan come on, guaranteeing the distribution of heat consistently and uniformly throughout the oven. Preheating is not necessary for this cooking mode. This mode is particularly suitable for cooking pre-packed food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The best results are achieved using one cooking rack only. [. . . ] Use specialised products for the removal of stubborn stains. After cleaning, rinse well and dry thoroughly. do not use abrasive powders or corrosive substances. € The hob grids, burner caps, flame spreader rings and burners may be removed to make cleaning easier; wash them in hot water and non-abrasive detergent, making sure all burnt-on residue is removed before drying them thoroughly.
