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 pans with the right diameter to fit the burner, in order to make the most out of it, thus reducing gas consumption as in Fig. 2 (see also the "Table of minimum and maximum pan diameter"). 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.
Some models are supplied with a special grid. When using the auxiliary burner (with pans having a diameter equal or higher than 50mm), place this grid on the pan support, as shown in fig.3.

When using the oven for the first time
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. Before cooking for the first time, carefully wash the oven accessories.

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.
Suggestions for using the oven
Traditional cooking
As heat originates from top and bottom, dishes should preferably be placed in the middle. If cooking requires more heat from the bottom or the top, use the upper or lower level.
Fan cooking
Heat is transmitted to dishes by hot air forcibly circulated inside the oven by a fan placed at the back of the oven. By this method, heat is quickly and evenly circulated throughout the oven, permitting several different dishes to be cooked at the same time on two different levels (Fig.7). With this cooking method, through the elimination of humidity in the air and a drier environment, smells and tastes are not given off and do not mix with those of other dishes. Thanks to this possibility of cooking on several levels, you can cook up to three different dishes at the same
time, to be consumed immediately or frozen. You can also cook on only one level. In this case, it is advisable to place the dish on the lower level for better cooking control. This oven is particularly suitable for defreezing rapidly, sterilizing preserves, homemade jams and, finally, for drying mushrooms and fruit.

Using the 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 l 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 times given in the Cooking table are intended as a guide only. Only experience will enable you to determine the correct setting to suit your personal requirements.
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.

Cleaning and maintenance
Before each operation, disconnect the appliance.
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 door
For a more complete cleaning of the oven door, it is advisable to disassemble it in the following way (Fig.
9): open the door fully, turn the two caps situated on the arm of the hinge to 180°, partially close the door to an angle of 30°, lift the door and extract from the front. Re-mount the door by reversing the operation described above.
Fig. 8
FO 0287
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 acces-sories (grate, grid­plate etc.) 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.

Connection using a rigid pipe or a flexible metal pipe
To ensure higher safety, it is recommended to carry out the connection to the gas system using rigid pipes (ex. copper) or using flexible stainless steel pipes, to avoid any stress to the unit. Gas feeding pipe fitting is Gc 1/
2. For this type of installation, connection to the gas supply should be carried out using only and exclusively flexible metallic tubes in conformity with rules in force.
Connection using flexible non metal pipes
When the connection can be easily inspected in its full extent, there is the chance to use a flexible pipe according to the rules in force. The flexible pipe must be tightly fixed using clamps according to the rules in force. The flexible pipe should be made ready for use in such a way that:
- nowhere it can reach overtemperature, other than room temperature, higher than 30°C; if the flexible pipe, to reach the cock, must run behind the range, it must be installed as shown in Fig. 12;
- it is no longer than 1500 mm;
- it shows no throttles;
- it is not subject to traction or torsion;
- it doesn't get in touch with cutting edges or corners;
- it can be easily inspected in order to check its condition.
The control of preservation of the flexible pipe consists in checking that:
- 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.
IMPORTANT
Once installation is complete, check the perfect seal of every pipe fitting, using a soapy solution, never a flame.

Adaptation to different kinds of gas
To adapt the appliance to a different kind of gas from the one the appliance has been set for, follow the instructions below in their order. Upon completion replace the rating plate with the relevant one (supplied with the appliance) for the new type of gas supply.
Gas connection (Fig. 13)
LPG : use the rubber pipe holder «B». Natural gas : use the pipe fitting «A».
Always insert the gasket «C» (Fig. 13). Then proceed with the gas connection, as indicated in the relevant paragraphs.
Replacement of nozzles and adjustment
Nozzle replacement:
- Remove the pan supports.
- Extract the caps and the wall baffles of the burners.
- Using a socket spanner 7 unscrew and remove (fig.
14) the nozzles replacing them with the ones required for the kind of gas in use (see "Technical Data"). Reassemble the parts following the same procedure backwards. These burners do not need any primary air regulation.

Adjustment of minimum level of plate burners
To adjust the minimum level:
1) turn the knob to the position of minimum flame;
2) remove the knob (Fig. 15); 3a) in case of conversion from natural gas to LPG,
tightly screw the by-pass pin of the cocks;
3b) when converting from LPG to natural gas unscrew
about one-fourth turn by-pass pin, until a regular
small flame is reached. Reassemble the parts following the same procedure backards. Check that, turning quickly the knob from the maximum position to the minimum one, the flame does not go out.

Neutral wire
The appliance is supplied with electric cord: you have to install a plug fit for the load shown in the serial number plate. The plug has to be connected to an adequate socket. 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.
