If the burners should go out accidentally, after about 20 seconds a safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas tap is open. 51 Instructions for the user 6. 2 Practical advice for using the cooking hob burners For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption, use pans with lids of suitable size for the burner, so that flames do not reach up the sides of the pan (see point "6. 3 Pan Diameters"). Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to prevent the liquid from boiling over. When cooking, to prevent burns or damage to the hob all pans or griddle plates must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob. All pans must have smooth, flat bottoms. Take the greatest care when using fats or oils since they may catch fire if overheated. If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait at least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner. 6. 3 Pan diameters BURNERS Ø min.

USING THE OVEN Before using the oven make sure that the analogue programmer shows the symbol (see paragraph "5. 2. 4 Manual mode cooking "). In models equipped with analogue digital timer, the user has only to press the central key for 1/2 seconds to enable use of the oven on first use or after a power blackout. 7. 1 General warnings and advice When the oven is used for the first time, it should be heated to the maximum temperature for long enough to burn off any oily residues left by the manufacturing process, which might contaminate foods with unpleasant odours. To prevent any steam in the oven from causing problems, open the door in two stages: hold it half-open (about 5 cm) for 4-5 seconds, then open it completely. To access food, always leave the door open for as short a time as possible to prevent the temperature in the oven from falling and ruining the food. During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium or tin foil, and do not place pans or trays on it; this may damage the enamel coating. [. . . ] Remove the pan stands and wash them in warm water with a non-abrasive detergent, taking care to remove all encrustations, and wait until they are completely dry. Replace the flame-spreader crowns, checking that they are correctly in place with their respective burner caps, making sure that the holes A in the flame-spreader crowns are aligned with the plugs and thermocouples. 10. 2. 3 Ignition plugs and thermocouples For best performance, the ignition plugs and thermocouples must always be kept thoroughly clean. Check them frequently and if necessary clean them with a wet cloth. Remove any dry residues with a wooden toothpick or a needle. 10. 3 Cleaning the oven To keep the oven in good condition, it must be cleaned regularly, after allowing it to cool down. [. . . ]
