RECOMENDATIONS AND PRECAUTIONS
ATTENTION:
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the
production of heat and moisture in the room in
which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well
ventilated:
keep natural ventilation holes open or install a
mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor
hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call
for additional ventilation, for example opening of a
window, or more effective ventilation, for example
increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where
present.
Prior to installation, ensure that the local distribution
conditions (nature of the gas and gas pressure)
and the adjustment of the appliance are compatible.
- Before using the appliance, remember to remove
the protective plastic film present on some parts
of the appliance (facia-panel, parts in stainless
steel, etc.)
- Do not use the appliance for the purpose of
heating.
- When the appliance is not in use, we recommend
you unplug it from the mains electricity and
shut the gas tap.
IN THE EVENT OF FIRE:
In the event of fire,
valve of the gas supply, unplug the appliance
from the mains. Never, under any
circumstances, pour water on burning oil.

containers near the burners, and do not vaporize
them near lighted burners.

CHILDREN.
Do not store items that are attractive to children
above or near the appliance.

that they take a while to cool down.
In order to avoid any unintentional accidents, pan
handles should be turned inwards to the rear of
the cooker, not outwards into the room or over
adjacent burners.
When cooking, do not use clothes with large flared

USING THE GAS BURNERS
The following symbols are found on the control
panel next to each knob:
- Circle gas off
- Large flame maximum setting
- Small flame minimum setting
The minimum position is at the end of the anticlockwise rotation of the knob. Knob positions must
be set between max. and min.; never set the knobs
between max. and off.
MANUAL IGNITION

ENERGY SAVING TIPS
The diameter of the pan bottom should be the
same as that of the burner. The burner flame
must never exceed the pans diameter.
Use flat-bottomed pans only.
Whenever possible, keep a lid on the pan while
cooking.
This allows you cook using less heat.
Cook vegetables, potatoes, etc. with as little
water as possible to reduce cooking times.

USING THE ELECTRIC OVEN
Before the first use of the oven
The first time the oven is used, it may give off
smells, these are caused by residues left by the
production processes and is quite normal.
Ensure
there is adequate ventilation in the room before
performing this action.
(It is necessary to heat
up the oven at the maximum temperature for
about 30-40 minutes in order to burn off these
residues).
It is perfectly normal for the oven to
smoke when first used; wait for the smoke to stop
before placing food into the oven.
The oven is fitted with: a grill shelf for cooking food
in oven dishes or for placing directly on the grill
shelf itself, a drip-tray for cooking sweets, biscuits,
pizzas, etc., or for collecting juices and fats from
food cooked directly on the grill shelf.
Note: The following tables provide a guide for
cooking some of the most popular dishes. The
cooking times recommended in these tables are
approximate. After a few attemps, we are sure that
you will be able to adjust the times to get the results
you want.
ATTENTION: Always use the oven with the oven
door closed.

corresponds to the temperature in the oven centre
only when the functions selected are or .
Oven lamp
When you turn the control knob to this position, the
light will be on for all the following operations.
Defrosting with fan
The air at ambient temperature is distributed inside
the oven for defrosting food faster.
Natural convection
Both the lower and upper heating elements operate
together.
This is the traditional cooking, very good for roasting
joints, ideal for biscuits, baked apples and crisping
food.
You obtain very good results when cooking on a
shelf adjusting the temperature between 60 and
MAX°C.
Note:
All the functions mentioned above, switch the oven
light on. A warning light on the control panel will stay
lit until the selected temperature is reached; after it will
light up intermittently.
Use of the oven

closed.
Note: ovens with separate thermostat and function
selectors.
When the functions are used, place the
thermostat knob between 180 - 200°C as maximum
temperature.
Fan oven
Both the fan and the circular heating element
operate together. The hot air is adjustable between
60 and MAX°C and is evenly distributed inside the
oven. This is ideal for cooking several types of food
(meat, fish etc) at the same time without affecting
taste and smell. It is ideal for delicate pastries.
Medium grill (
turnspit)
It is ideal for grilling and gratinating small quantities
of traditional food. The thermostat knob must be
placed on the maximum position.
Full grill (
turnspit)
It is ideal for grilling and gratinating traditional food.
Set the thermostat control knob to the 200°C
position.

Thermal grilling
The air which is heated by the grill element is
circulated by the fan which distributes the heat on
the food. The fan assisted grill function can replace
the need to use the rotisserie. You can obtain very
good results also with large quantities of poultry,
sausage, red meat. Set the thermostat control knob
to the 200°C position.
Air forced lower heating element
The air which is heated by the lower heating element
is circulated by the fan which distributes the heat
on the food . This function can be used between
60° and MAX°C.
