[. . . ] If the burners should go out accidentally, a safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas tap is open. In this case, turn the knob to the OFF position and wait at least 60 seconds before trying to light the burner again. 6. 3 Practical hints for using the hob burners For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption: use pans with lids and of a suitable size for the burner, so that the flames do not reach up the sides of the pan (see paragraph "6. 4 Cookware diameters"). Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to ensure that the liquid does not boil over. If any liquid does boil over or spill, remove the excess from the hob. To prevent burns or damage to the hob during cooking, all pans or griddles must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob. All pans must have smooth, flat bottoms. If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait at least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner. Take the greatest care when using fats or oils since they may catch fire if overheated. 13 Instructions for the user 6. 4 Cookware diameters Burner Auxiliary Semi-rapid Rapid Ultra-rapid Ø min.

Make sure never to come into contact with the lid glass with pots or pans that are still hot. The glass could crack and break with the heat. 14 Instructions for the user 7. GRILL: The heat coming from the grill element gives perfect grilling results above all for thin and medium thickness meat and in combination with the rotisserie (where present) gives the food an even browning at the end of cooking. This function enables large quantities of food, particularly meat, to be grilled evenly. SMALL GRILL: (on some models only) Using only the heat released from the central element, this function allows to grill small portions of meat and fish for making kebabs, toasted sandwiches and any types of grilled vegetable side dishes. FAN-ASSISTED GRILL: The air produced by the fan softens the strong heatwave generated by the grill, grilling perfectly even very thick foods. shin of pork). FAN-ASSISTED BOTTOM: The combination of the fan with just the lower heating element allows cooking to be completed more rapidly. This system is recommended for sterilising or for finishing off the cooking of foods which are already well-cooked on the surface, but not inside, which therefore need a little more heat. CIRCULAR: The combination of the fan and the circular element (incorporated in the rear of the oven) allows to cook different foods on several levels, as long as they need the same temperatures and same type of cooking. Hot air circulation ensures instant and uniform distribution of heat. It will be possible, for instance, to cook fish, vegetables and biscuits simultaneously (on different levels) without mixing odours and flavours. 17 Instructions for the user 8. 1 Cooking advice and instructions 8. 1. 1 General advice · We recommend preheating the oven before putting food in. Place the food in the oven only once the cooking light is off. · · · · For cooking on several levels, we recommend using a fan-assisted function to achieve uniform cooking at all heights. In general, it is not possible to shorten cooking times by increasing the temperature (the food could be well-cooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside).
