HOB OPERATION

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

When a liquid starts boiling, it is advisable to turn the
flame down just enough to keep the liquid simmering.

The burners are fitted with automatic ignition and a
thermocouple safety device, which automatically cuts off
the gas from the burner in a few seconds if the flame
accidentally goes out during operation. The burners differ
in size and power. Choose the most appropriate one for
the diameter of the cookware being used. Each burner can
be regulated with the corresonding control knob "M" by
using one of the following settings:

Off
High flame

Low flame
The symbols near the knobs show the position of the

relative burner on the hob.
To ignite a burner, proceed as follows:

• turn the relative knob counter-clockwise until the pointer
is on the high-flame symbol;

• press the knob down fully and activate the automatic
gas ignition ;

• keep the knob pressed down for about 10 seconds with
the flame lit to allow the safety thermocouple to be heated;

• release the knob, checking that the flame is stable. If it
is not, repeat the operation.

The hob is fitted with a pan reducing
support (fig.1), which should only be
used on the auxiliary burner "A"

fig.1

MULTI-FUNCTION OVEN

The oven offers nine combinations of heating elements;
so the most suitable combination may therefore be chosen
for each dish, with convincing results.

By turning the selector knob “H” marked with the symbol

, different cooking modes are obtained, as shown in

the following table:

For minimum power, turn the knob towards the low flame
symbol. Intermediate positions are possible by simply
putting the knob anywhere between the high and the low
flame symbol.
To turn off the burner, turn the knob clockwise to the off
position " ".

Important:

• Do not activate the automatic ignition device for more
than 15 consecutive seconds.

• Difficulty in ignition is sometimes due to air inside the
gas duct.

• If a burner flame accidentally goes out, the gas continues
to exit for a few moments before the safety device
activates. Turn the control knob to the of f position and do
not attempt ignition again for at least 1 minute, thereby
letting the gas disperse, which could otherwise be a
danger.

• When the appliance is not in operation, check that the
knobs are in the off position " ". The main gas supply
cut-off cock should also be closed.

Using the burners

To obtain maximum efficiency from the burners, it is
advisable to only use pans with a diameter suitable for the
burner being used, so that the flame does not extend beyond
the pan base (see following table).
