Recommended pottery
Remember that a wide-bottomed pan allows a faster cooking than a narrow one. Always use pots which properly fit what you have to cook. Particularly make sure that the pans are not too small for liquids, since these could easily overflow. Moreover, the pans should not be too large for a faster cooking. In fact, grease and juices may spread on the bottom and burn easily. It is better to use non-openable moulds for baking cakes. In fact, an openable mould lets juices and sugar leak through, falling on the bottom of the oven and consequently burning on the bottom of the baking tray, making cleaning difficult. Avoid putting plastic-handled pans in the oven as they are not heat-proof. You should use oans with the right diameter to fit the burner, in order to make the most out of it, thus reducing gas consumption. It is also advisable to cover any boiling casserole and, as soon as the liquid starts boiling, lower the flame enough to keep the boiling point.

When using the oven for the first time
Before using the appliance, remove all packaging, both inside and outside the appliance,
including the advertising labels and any protective film.
When using the oven for the first time:
!
a) Ignite the gas oven burner and set the gas oven control
knob to "240".
b) allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45
minutes; c) open a window for ventilation. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is absolutely normal, and is caused by residues of manufacturing. Once this operation is carried out, let the oven cool down, then clean the oven cavity with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water.
This procedure should be repeated with the grill function for approximately 5-10 minutes. Before cooking for the first time, carefully wash the oven
accessories.
Suggestions for using the oven
Always cook with the oven door closed.
Stand clear when opening the drop down oven door. Do not allow it to fall open ­support the door using the door handle, until it is fully open.
The oven has four shelf levels, and is supplied with one shelf.
The shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven as shown in the diagram.
It is important that the shelf is correctly positioned.
Do not place cookware directly on the oven base.

Condensation and Steam
The oven is supplied with an exclusive system which produces a natural circulation of air and the constant recycling of steam. This system makes it possible to cook in a steamy environment and keep the dishes soft inside and crusty outside. Moreover, the cooking time and energy consumption are reduced to a minimum. During cooking steam may be produced which can be released when opening the oven door. This is absolutely normal.
However, always stand back from the oven when opening the oven door during cooking or at the end of it to allow any build up of steam or heat to release.
When food is heated, it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle does. When steam comes in contact of the oven door glass, it will condense and produce water droplets.
To reduce condensation, ensure the oven is well heated before placing food in the oven cavity. A short oven pre-heating (about 10 minutes) will then be necessary before any cooking.
We recommend you to wipe away condensation after each use of the appliance.
To open the oven door, always catch the handle in its central part.

Suggestions for using the oven
Traditional cooking
Heat derives from the top and the bottom, it is therefore preferable to use the central guides. If cooking requires more heat from the bottom or the top, use the upper or lower guides.
Using the traditional oven
For the cooking of cakes
Pre-heat the oven, unless indicated differently, for at least 10 minutes before use. Do not open the oven door when cooking dishes which must raise (e.g. raised pastries and soufflés); the jet of cold air would block the raising process. To check if cakes are cooked, insert a toothpick into the mixture; if it comes out clean the cake is ready. Wait until at least 3/4 of the cooking time has passed before doing this check. As a general rule remember that: a dish which is well-cooked on the outside but not sufficiently cooked inside would have required a lower temperature and longer cooking time. On the contrary, a “dry” texture would have required a shorter time and higher cooking temperature.
For the cooking of meat
Meat to be cooked in the oven should weigh at least 1 kilo to avoid its becoming too dry. If you want roasts with a good colour, use very little oil. If the piece is lean, use oil or butter or a little of both. Butter or oil are on the other hand unnecessary if the piece has a strip of fat. If the piece has a strip of fat on one side only, put it in the oven with this side upwards; when melting the fat will grease the lower side sufficiently. Red meat should be removed from the fridge one hour before cooking otherwise the sudden change of tempe­rature could cause it to become tough. A roast, especially if of red meat, must not be salted at the beginning of cooking as salt causes juices and blood to seep out of the meat, thus preventing the formation of a well-browned crust. It is advisable to salt the outside of the meat after just over half the cooking time. Place the roast in the oven in a dish having a low rim; a deep dish shields heat. Meat can be placed on an ovenproof dish or directly on the grill, under which the dripping pan will be inserted to collect juice. Ingredients for gravy should only be put in the dish immediately if cooking time is brief, otherwise they should be added during the last half hour. Begin cooking rare meat at a high temperature, reducing the temperature to finish cooking the inside. The cooking temperature for white meat can be modera­te throughout. The degree of cooking can be checked by pressing the meat with a fork; if it does not give the meat is cooked. At the end of cooking it is advisable to wait at least 15 minutes before cutting the meat in order that the juices are not lost.
Before serving plates can be kept warm in the oven at minimum temperature.
For the cooking of fish:
Cook small fish from start to finish at a high temperatu­re. Cook medium-sized fish initially at a high temperatu­re and then gradually lower the temperature. Cook large fish at a moderate temperature from start to finish. Check that baked fish is cooked by gently lifting one side of the gut; the meat must be white and opaque throughout, except in the case of salmon, trout or similar.
Grilling
The following types of meat are suitable for grilling. Mostly meat or offal cut in slices or pieces of various sizes, but not usually very thick, poultry cut in half and flattened, fish, some vegetables (e.g. courgettes, aubergines, tomatoes, etc.), skewers of meat or fish and seafood. Meat and fish to be grilled should be lightly brushed with oil and always placed on the grill; meat should be salted upon completion of cooking; whereas fish should be salted on the inside before cooking. The grill should be positioned in the guides nearest or furthest from the grill element according to the thickness of the meat, in order to avoid burning the surface and cooking the inside insufficiently. The formation of smoke caused by drops of juice and fat can be avoided by pouring 1 or 2 glasses of water into the dripping pan. The grill can also be used to brown, toast bread and grill certain types of fruit, such as bananas, halved grapefruit, slices of pineapple, apples, etc. Fruit should not be placed too near the source of heat.
Cooking times
Cooking times can vary according to the type of food, its consistency and its volume. It is advisable to watch when cooking for the first time and check results since when preparing the same dishes, in the same conditions, similar results are obtained. The cooking tables relating to cooking in the oven and by grill are provided as a guide to prepare dishes accoriding to suggested times. Experience will show possible variations to the values set out in the table.
Nevertheless carefully follow the indications given in the receipe you intend to follow. Attention: do not place any utensils such as dripping
pan, cake tins, casseroles, pyrex dishes, aluminium foil or other on the base of the oven when the oven is in use. A stagnation of heat would result which would compro­mise the results of cooking and could damage the oven enamel.

Suggestions for gas burners
Start your cooking with a big flame by turning the knob
to the symbol . Then adjust the flame as necessary. The outside of the flame is much hotter than its inside
(nucleus). Accordingly , the top of the flame should lick the bottom of the pan. Excessive flames mean a waste of gas. In contrast with electric grids, gas burners do not require flat-bottomed pans: the flames lick the bottom and spread the heat all over the surface. No special pans are required for gas burners. However, thinwalled pans transmit the heat to the food more quickly than thick-walled ones. Since heat doesn't spread evenly on the pan's bottom, the food may only be partially heated. Consequently it is advisable to stir the food many times. A thick pan bottom prevents partial overheating as it allows sufficient thermic compensation. Avoid very small pans. Wide and shallow pans are more suitable than narrow and deep ones as they allow a faster heating. Cooking is not quickened by placing narrow pans on wide burners. The result is just a waste of gas. For a proper usage, place small pans on small burners and large pans on large burners. Remember to cover pans to reduce gas consumption.

Cooking times do not include pre-heating time. A short oven pre-heating (about 10 minutes) is necessary before any cooking.

Cleaning and maintenance
Before each operation, disconnect the appliance.
This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or with a steam cleaning machine.
The oven should be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire, especially in the grill pan.
Cleaning the cooker
Drops of sauce, fruit juice etc., should be removed as soon as possible with a soft cloth soaked in warm detergent water. Do not use steel wool or knives to take off layers of crust. Remove stubborn marks with a well wetted soap impregnated pad, but care must be taken not to scratch the enamel. Wash the enamelled grids with water and detergent; these can also be washed a dishwasher. Take off the burner covers and the grids and wash them carefully with warm water and detergent. Dry them well before putting them back in position. Moreover, make sure that these are properly re-placed. The burner can be rubbed with steel wool or a slightly abrasive cloth. Clean the oven door and crystal cover, in models equipped with these items, only with warm water, and avoid the use of rough cloths or abrasive substances; in cookers with an automatic ignition the sparkling bulb should be cleaned periodically and accurately to avoid difficulties in lighting; furthermore check that the burner holes are not obstructed.
Cleaning the oven
Clean carefully the oven cavity after use when it is still warm. In fact, at this moment it is easy to take off deposits of fat or other substances such as fruit juice, sugar particles or fat. You can use warm detergent water or one of the appropriate spray oven cleaners. Do not direct the spray at the mat steel parts as this could damage them and always follow the manufacturer's instructions. Clean the oven accessories with warm water and detergent. Remove possible incrustations with a slightly abrasive powder.
Never line any part of the oven with aluminium foil. It would result in an accumulation of heat which might damage the cooking results and also damage the enamel.
Controls - Sundries
Periodically check the condition of the flexible pipe of gas connection and make it replaced by skilled technicians as soon as it shows abnormalities. Annual replacement is recommended. Have the cocks periodically lubricated by skilled technicians. In case of unusual working have the range checked by skilled technicians. In ranges with cylinder holder, do not use this space to leave a non-connected or an empty cylinder.

Cleaning of the oven with enamel coating
Principle:
Cleaning of the smooth and shiny enamel oven walls should be done manually.
Regular maintenance:
After preparing meat dishes, the oven walls should be cleaned by means of a sponge and a detergent in order to remove possible fat splashes. By doing so, the oven will produce less steam when using it the next bme and it will remain clean for a longer period. Soils from overboiling on the bottom plate can be eliminated more easily if the bottom plate is removed from the oven.
Long-term maintenance:
Use only appropriate products available on the market.
Cleaning the oven door
For a more complete cleaning of the oven door, it is advisable to disassemble it in the following way (Fig.
10):
1. open the door fully;
2. turn the two caps situated on the arm of the hinge to 180° (diagram 1 and 2);
3. partially close the door to an angle of 30° (diagram
3);
4. lift the door and extract from the front (diagram 3). Re-mount the door by reversing the operation described
above.
Models in stainless steel or aluminium:
We recommend to clean the oven door using only a wet sponge and dry it up after cleaning with a soft cloth. Never use steel wool, acids or abrasive products as they can damage the oven surface. Clean the oven control panel following the same precautions.

- it doesn't show cracks, cuts, marks of burnings both on the end parts and on its full extent;
- the material is not hardened, but shows its normal elasticity;
- the fastening clamps are not rusted;
- expiry term is not due.
If one or more abnormalities are seen, do not repair the pipe, but replace it.

Electrical connection
The unit is preset to work with a voltage of single phase 230 V. Before making the connection make sure that: — the energy power available in the user's house is
sufficient for the normal supply of this appliance (see rating plate).
— the unit is correctly connected to earth through a
suitable plug and according to the installation country Laws.
— the socket or the omnipolar switch used for the
connection must be easilv reached with the installed appliance.
If you wish to directly connect to the mains, you have to interpose an omnipolar switch with a minimum opening between contacts of 3 mm, between the unit and the mains, complying with the existing regulations. The brown live wire (originating from the clamp of the cooker junction box) must always be connected to the phase of the mains supply. In any case, the supply cord must be positioned in such a way as it doesn't reach in any point a temperature higher by 50°C than the room tem­perature. Should the supply cord need to be replaced, use only the following cable types: H05RR-F / H05VV-F / H05V2V2-F (T90). It is necessary that the yellow/green earth wire is about 2cm longer than the live and neutral ones. After the connection, test the heating elements for about 3 minutes to ensure that they are working correctly.

DECLARATION OF GUARANTEE TERMS
(BELGIUM)
Our appliances are produced with the greatest of care. However, a defect may still occur. Our consumer serv­ices department will repair this upon request, either during or after the guarantee period. The service life of the appliance will not, however, be reduced as a re­sult. This declaration of guarantee terms is based on Euro­pean Union Directive 99/44/EC and the provisions of the Civil Code. The statutory rights that the consumer has under this legislation are not affected by this dec­laration of guarantee terms. This declaration does not affect the vendor’s statutory warranty to the end user. The appliance is guaranteed within the context of and in adherence with the follow­ing terms:
1. In accordance with provisions laid down in para­graphs 2 to 15, we will remedy free of charge any defect that occurs within 24 months from the date the appliance is delivered to the first end user. These guarantee terms do not apply in the event of use for professional or equivalent purposes.
2. Performing the guarantee means that the appli­ance is returned to the condition it was in before the defect occurred. Defective parts are replaced or repaired. Parts replaced free of charge become our property.
3. So as to avoid more severe damage, the defect must be brought to our attention immediately.
4. Applying the guarantee is subject to the consumer providing proof of purchase showing the purchase and/or delivery date.
5. The guarantee will not apply if damage caused to delicate parts, such as glass (vitreous ceramic), synthetic materials and rubber, is the result of in­appropriate use.
6. The guarantee cannot be called on for minor faults that do not affect the value or the overall reliability of the appliance.
7. The statutory warranty does not apply when de­fects are caused by:
· a chemical or electrochemical reaction caused
by water,
· abnormal environmental conditions in general,
· unsuitable operating conditions,
· contact with harsh substances.
8. The guarantee does not apply to defects due to transport which have occurred outside of our re­sponsibility. Nor will the guarantee cover those caused by inadequate installation or assembly, lack of maintenance or failure to respect the as­sembly instructions or directions for use.
9. Defects that result from repairs or measures car­ried out by people who are not qualified or expert or defects that result from the addition of non-origi­nal accessories or spare parts are not covered by the guarantee.
10. Appliances that are easy to transport may be delivered or sent to the consumer services de­partment. Home repairs are only anticipated for bulky appliances or built-in appliances.
11. If the appliances are built-in, built-under, fixed or suspended in such a way that removing and re­placing them in the place where they are fitted takes more than half an hour, the costs that re­sult therefrom will be charged for. Connected dam­age caused by these removal and replacement operations will be the responsibility of the user.
12. If, during the guarantee period, repairing the same defect repeatedly is not conclusive, or if the re­pair costs are considered disproportionate, in agreement with the consumer, the defective ap­pliance may be replaced with another appliance of the same value. In this event, we reserve the right to ask for a financial contribution calculated according to the length of time it has been used.
13. A repair under guarantee does not mean that the normal guarantee period will be extended nor that a new guarantee period begins.
14. We give a twelve month guarantee for repairs, lim­ited to the same defect.
15. Except in the event where liability is legally im­posed, this declaration of guarantee terms ex­cludes any compensation for damage outside the appliance for which the consumer wishes to as­sert his rights. In the event of legally admitted liability, compensation will not exceed the pur­chase price paid for the appliance.
These guarantee terms are only valid for appliances purchased and used in Belgium. For exported appli­ances, the user must first make sure that they sat­isfy the technical conditions (e.g.: voltage, frequency, installation instructions, type of gas, etc.) for the coun­try concerned and that they can withstand the local climatic and environmental conditions. For appliances purchased abroad, the user must first ensure that they meet the qualifications required in Belgium. Non-essential or requested adjustments are not covered by the guarantee and are not possible in all cases. Our consumer services department is always at your disposal, even after the guarantee period has expired.
