HOW TO USE THE TOP BURNERS
Control Knobs.
Each of the control knobs for the range is equipped with a ring of dual color LED status indicator lights
BLUE: When the knobs are in the OFF position the indicator lights will be in a bright blue color.
RED: When the knobs are in turned to an ON position the indicator lights will be in a bright red to indicate which burner is in use, the oven / broiler has been turned on or the function selector knobhas been turned to activate the rotisserie or to turn on the oven light.
GAS BURNERS
Gas flow to the burners is adjusted by turning the knobs which control the valves. Turning the knobso that the indicator line points to the symbols printed on the panel achieves the following functions:
When knob is rotated to the maximum position it will permit the rapid boiling of liquids, whereasthe minimum position allows the simmer warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions ofliquids.
ATTENTION: FOR YOUR SAFETY:
THIS UNIT HAS BEEN DESIGNED WITH A FLAME
SENSOR SYSTEM THAT MONITORS THE COOKTOP
BURNERS.
When using the cooktop, press the knob all the way in, turn to ignite the flame and hold for approximately 10 seconds to allow the system to heat to the appropriate temperature and allow the flow of gas to the selected burner.
To reduce the gas flow to minimum, rotate the knob further counter clockwise to point the MIN position. Other intermediate operating adjustments can be
achieved by positioning the indicator between theMAX
and MIN positions, and never between the MAX and OFF positions.
When the range is not being used, set the gas knobs to their OFF positions and also close thegas shut off valve placed on the main gas supply line.
LIGHTING GAS BURNERS
In order to light the burner, you must:
1 – Push the knob all the way in, turn the knob in a counterclockwise direction up to the MAX position (maximum rate) to ignite, and hold the knob until the flame has been lit and allow the system to heat to the appropriate temperature and allow the flow of gas (approximately 10 seconds).
The sparks produced by the internal igniter will light the designated burner.
In the event that the local gas supply conditions make it difficult to light the burner in the MAX position, try again with the knob in MIN position.
2 – Adjust the gas valve to the desired position.
To re-light the burner, return the knob to the OFF position and repeat the operations for lighting.
Caution! The range becomes very hot during operation. Keep children well out of reach.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
GENERAL RECOMMENDATION
Important: Before any operation of cleaning and maintenance disconnect the appliancefrom the electrical supply.
It is advisable to clean when the appliance is cold and especially for cleaning the enameled parts.
Avoid leaving alkaline or acidic substances (lemon juice, vinegar, etc.) on the surfaces. Avoid using cleaning products with a chlorine or acidic base.
The oven must always be cleaned after every use, using suitable products and keeping in mind that its operation for 30 minutes on the highest temperature eliminates most grime reducing it to ashes.
ENAMELED PARTS
All the enameled parts must be cleaned with a sponge and soapy water only or other non-abrasive products.
Dry preferably with a chamois leather.
If acid substances such as lemon juice, tomato conserve, vinegar etc. are left on the enamel for a long time they will etch it, making it opaque.
STAINLESS STEEL ELEMENTS
Stainless steel parts must be rinsed with water and dried with a soft and clean cloth or with a chamois leather.
For difficult dirt, use a specific non-abrasive product available commercially or a little hot vinegar.
Note: regular use could cause discoloring around the burners, because of the highflame temperature.
INSIDE OF OVEN
