2. PRECAUTION TO BE TAKEN IN USE

Please read your «Instructions for Use» manual carefully and keep it safely: it has been written in order to allow you to use your cooker in the optimum manner.

●Before using your cooker for the first time, please heat up the oven, while empty, so as to burn off the smell of the insulation as well as the protective greases utilised during manufacture:

-Lift the lid,

-Remove the protective film as well as the selfadhesive labels,

-Remove the publicity stickers,

-Set the oven temperature control to its maximum position and heat the oven for 30 minutes, then setting to the grill position, for another 10 minutes, approximately.

During this operation, your cooker will give off smoke.

The room should be suitably aerated so as to reduce the smell and the smoke density.

●Take the precaution of washing the oven accessories (Grill, Pastry Tray, Drip Tray).

●In use, a gas cooker unit produces both heat and humidity within the room where it is installed. Please ensure that the kitchen is properly aerated: keep the natural aeration openings open, or a mechanicjÊ aeration device should be installed.

●Intensive or prolonged use of the cooker could necessitate additional aeration, by opening a window, or via more efficient aeration, for example, by increasing the power of the mechanical ventilator, should one be installed.

●Your cooker has been designed solely for culinary use, and not for any other purpose.

●Never pull your cooker via the door handle.

●Before manually cleaning your cooker, please check that none of the cooker elements is either switched on or live. Each of the Control Knobs should be set to STOP.

●Please ensure that the burner rings are kept scrupulously clean. Any dirt on these could be the cause of poor ignition.

●If you dismantle the burner rings for cleaning, please ensure that:

-the burner rings are sitting in a stable position on the burners

-the burner crowns are in place

●The outer surfaces of your cooker become hot both when using the oven and during its cleaning sequence. Please keep children well away.

●Do not store either maintenance products or inflammable products in the drawer.

●Never place aluminium foil directly into contact with the sole plate as this could damage the enamel surface.

●Never use the drip tray as a roasting dish.

●Please take care never to leave anything on the hob while the burners are in use (tea towels, dish cloths, aluminium foil, etc.)

●Wipe off any dirt on the surface of the lid before opening it.

For your safety:

Turn off each of the burners and wait for the upper part of the hob to cool before closing the lid.

●Change the gas supply pipe well before the expiry date indicated on this part.

●Never use a propane bottle within your kitchen, or any other closed area.

●Where any fault in operation occurs, please, first of all, refer to the Chapter entitled «Where a fault occurs, what do I do ?» If, after having checked these various points, the fault still persists, please contact your retailer’s After Sales Service. Please give them the Model Reference No and the Serial Number of your cooker. These are marked on the identification plate. Do not attempt to repair your cooker yourself, this could cause grave injury.

●Always insist on original spare parts, certified by the
