• This appliance is not connected to a combustion
products evacuation device. It must be installed and
connected in accordance with current installation
regulations. Particular attention shall be given to the
relevant requirements regarding ventilation.

• 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 a window,
or more effective ventilation, for example increasing
the level of mechanical ventilation where present.

• Do not hang towels, dishcloths or clothes from the oven
or its handle.

• Do not use this oven if it is in contact with water and never
operate it with wet hands.

• Take great care when heating fats and oils as they will
ignite if they become too hot.

• Always use oven gloves to remove and replace food in the
oven.

• Ensure that all control knobs are in the OFF position
when not in use.

• Do not leave cookware containing foodstuffs, e.g. fat or
oil in or on the oven in case it is inadvertently switched
ON.

• When using other electrical appliances, ensure the
cable does not come into contact with the hot surfaces
of the oven.

• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal

scraper to clean the oven door glass since they can
scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of
the glass.

Maintenance and Cleaning

electrical supply before carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance work.

Service

• This oven should only be repaired or serviced by an
authorised Service Engineer and only genuine approved
spare parts should be used.

Cooling fan

The cooling fan operates during cooking. Air is expelled
through vents between the oven door and the control panel,
as shown in the diagram.

The cooling fan may run on after the oven is switched off
to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.

To open the oven door, always catch the handle
in its central part.

Before the First Use

Remove all packaging, both inside and outside
the oven, before using the appliance.

Before first use, the oven should be heated without food.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted.
This is quite normal.

1. Switch the Gas Oven control knob to 240.

)

2. Open a window for ventilation.

3. Allow the oven to run empty for approximately
60 - 90 minutes.

Using the Oven

Always cook with the oven door closed.

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.

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 as shown in the diagram.

• Attention! - Do not place objects directly on the

oven base and do not cover it with aluminium foil
while cooking, as this could cause a heat
build-up which would affect the baking results
and damage the oven enamel. Always place
pans, heat-resisting pans and aluminium foils
on the shelf which has been inserted in the oven
cavity.

Hints and Tips

Condensation and steam

When food is heated it produces steam in the same way
as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this
steam to escape. However, always stand back from
the oven when opening the oven door to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on
the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and
produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a
fault with the oven.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

Be careful when you insert and extract the oven
shelf, the dripping pan and the baking tray from the
oven in order not to damage the enamelled surfaces
of the oven cavity.

Cookware

• Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand
temperatures of 240°C.

• Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
on the oven base.

• Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm
(12 in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of
heat and may affect performance.

The effects of dishes on cooking results

Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,
colour, etc. which af fects the way they transmit heat to
the food inside them.

A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright

shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.

B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium

with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark,
heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.
