To ensure maximum burner efficien-
cy, you should only use pots and pans
with a flat bottom fitting the size of the
burner used (see table).
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 boil-
ing casserole and, as soon as the liquid
starts boiling, lower the flame enough to
keep the boiling point.

Safety thermostat
In order to avoid excessive overheating
due to incorrect use of the appliance or else
to a faulty component, the oven is equipped
with a safety thermostat which cuts off the
power supply if necessary. Operation is restored automatically when the oven temperature decreases to normal values. Therefore, if
the thermostat cuts in because you have not
been using the appliance correctly, the oven
can be used again simply by waiting for the
appliance to cool down. If, instead, the thermostat cuts in because of a faulty component, you should call the Service Department.

When using the oven for the
first time
The oven will work only if the
time of day has been set (see
chapter "Electronic Programmer").
When using the oven for the first
time:
a) set the oven knob to and
!!
!
!!
the thermostat knob to MAX;
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 cooking function and
fan cooking function for approxi-
mately 5-10 minutes.
Before cooking for the first time,
carefully wash the oven accessories.
