•Do not use any phone in your building.

•Immediately call your gas supplier from a

neghbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

•If you cannot reach your gas suppliers, call

the ﬁ re department.

- Installation and service must be performed by a qualiﬁ ed installer, service agency or the gas supplier

In Massachusetts:

All gas products must be installed by a “Massachusetts” licensed plumber or gasﬁ tter. A “T” handle type manual gas valve must be installed in the gas line connected to this appliance.

To ensure proper and safe operation: Appliance must be properly installed and grounded by a qualiﬁ ed technician. DO NOT attempt to adjust, repair, service, or replace any part of your appliance unless it is speciﬁ cally recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualiﬁ ed servicer. Have the installer show you the location of the gas shut-oﬀ valve and how to shut

it oﬀ in an emergency. A certiﬁ ed technician is required for any adjustments or conversions to Natural or LP gas.

To Prevent Fire or Smoke Damage

• Be sure all packing materials are removed from

the appliance before operating it.

• Never let clothing, potholders, or other ﬂ am-

mable materials come in contact with or too close to any element, top burner or burner grate until it has cooled.

• If appliance is installed near a window, proper

precautions should be taken to prevent curtains from blowing over burners.

• Never leave any items on the cooktop. The hot

air from the vent may ignite ﬂ ammable items and may increase pressure in closed containers which may cause them to burst.

• Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSI-

VE when exposed to heat and may be highly ﬂ ammable. Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.

In Case of Fire

Turn oﬀ appliance and ventilation hood to avoid spreading the ﬂ ame. Extinguish ﬂ ame then turn on hood to remove smoke and odor.

• Cooktop: Smother ﬁ re or ﬂ ame in a pan with a

lid or cookie sheet.

• NEVER pick up or move a ﬂ aming pan.

• Oven: Smother ﬁ re or ﬂ ame by closing the oven

door. DO NOT use water on grease ﬁ res. Use baking soda, a dry chemical or foamtype extinguisher to smother ﬁ re or ﬂ ame, if available, a multipurpose dry chemical or foam type extinguisher.

Child Safety

• NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised

near the appliance when it is in use or is still hot.

• NEVER allow children to sit or stand on any

part of the appliance as they could be injured or burned.

• CAUTION do not store items of interest to chil-

dren in cabinets above the range or on the backguard of the range. Children climbing on the range to reach those items could be seriously injured.

/ Warnings

Cooking Safety

• Once the unit has been installed as outlined in

the Installation Instructions, it is important that the fresh air supply is not obstructed. 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 venting holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device. Prolonged or intensive use of the appliance may call for additional (such as opening a window) or more eﬀ ective ventilation (such as increasing the level of a mechanical ventilation if present).

• NEVER use aluminum foil to cover oven racks

or oven bottom. This could result in risk of electric shock, ﬁ re, or damage to the appliance. Use foil only as directed in this guide.

• To eliminate the hazard of reaching over hot

surface burners, cabinet storage should not be provided directly above a unit. Temperatures may be unsafe for some items, such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.

• ALWAYS place a pan on a surface burner befo-

re turning it on. Be sure you know which knob controls which surface burner. Make sure the correct burner is turned on and that the burner has ignited. When cooking is completed, turn burner oﬀ before removing pan to prevent exposure to burner ﬂ ame.

• ALWAYS adjust surface burner ﬂ ame so that it

does not extend beyond the bottom edge of the pan. An excessive ﬂ ame is hazardous, wastes energy and may damage the appliance, pan or cabinets above the appliance. This is based on safety considerations.

• NEVER leave a surface cooking operation

unattended especially when using a high heat setting or when deep fat frying. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite. Clean up greasy spills as soon as possible. DO NOT use high heat for extended cooking operations.

• DO NOT heat unopened food containers, bu-

ild up of pressure may cause the container to explode and result in injury.

• ALWAYS let quantities of hot fat used for deep

fat frying cool before attempting to move or handle.

• NEVER wear garments made of ﬂ ammable

material or loose ﬁ tting or long-sleeved apparel while cooking. Clothing may ignite or catch utensil handles. DO NOT drape towels or materials on oven door handles. These items could ignite and cause burns.

• ALWAYS place oven racks in the desired posi-

tions while oven is cool. Slide oven rack out to add or remove food, using dry, sturdy potholders.

• ALWAYS avoid reaching into the oven to add or

remove food. If a rack must be moved while hot, use a dry pot-holder.

• ALWAYS turn the oven oﬀ at the end of cooking.

• Use care when opening the oven door. Let hot

air or steam escape before moving or replacing food.

• DO NOT cook directly on the oven bottom.

This could result in damage to your appliance. Always use the oven racks when cooking in the oven.

Do not connect any appliances to the plugs above or near to the induction cooktop; connection cable insulation can melt if in contact with heat, and this may result in an injury and a property damage.

Recommended Utensils

• Use pans with ﬂ at bottoms and handles that

are easily grasped and stay cool. Avoid using unstable, warped, easily tipped or loose-handled pans. Also avoid using pans, especially small pans, with heavy handles as they could be unstable and easily tip. Pans that are heavy to move when ﬁ lled with food may also be hazardous.

• Be sure utensil is large enough to properly con-

tain food and avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat frying. Be sure pan will accommodate the volume of food that is to be added as well as the bubble action of fat.

• To minimize burns, ignition of ﬂ ammable mate-

rials and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, DO NOT extend handles over adjacent surface burners. ALWAYS turn pan handles toward the side or back of the appliance, not out into the room where they are easily hit or reached by small children.

• NEVER let a pan boil dry as this could damage

the utensil and the appliance.

• Follow the manufacturer’s directions when

using oven cooking bags.

• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ce-

ramic or glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop surface or oven usage without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Follow manufacturer’s instructions when using glass.

/ Warnings

Induction Cooking Surfaces

• Surface areas on or adjacent to the unit may be

hot enough to cause burns. Do not touch the cooking area as long as the light indicating residual heat on the glass-ceramic cooktop area, is “on”; this indicates that the temperature in the relative area is still high.

• DO NOT COOK ON BROKEN COOKING SUR-

FACE – If cooking surface should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooking surface and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualiﬁ ed technician immediately.

• Keep a close eye on children because they are

unlikely to see the residual heat warning lights. The cooking zones are still very hot for some time after use, even if they are switched oﬀ . Make sure that children never touch them.

• NEVER use aluminum foil to to hold the food

while cooking on a glass-ceramic cooktop area.

• Never place pan with bottoms which are not

perfectly ﬂ at and smooth on the cooktop area.

• If you drop a heavy pot on your cooktop area it

will not break. On the contrary, if a hard object, such as the salt shaker or the spice bottle strikes the edge or the corner of the cooktop area, the cooktop area may break.

• Never use the glass-ceramic cooktop area as

support surface.

• Only use cleaning products made speciﬁ cally

for ceramic glass cooking surfaces.

• Metal items such as cutlery or lids must never

be placed on the surface of the cooktop area since they may become hot.

Radio Interference - Induction Ranges

This unit generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this unit does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the unit oﬀ and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

• Increase the distance between the unit and re-

ceiver

• Connect the unit into an outlet on a circuit dif-

ferent from that to which the receiver is connected.

Oven Heating Elements

• NEVER touch oven bake and broil burner areas

or interior surfaces of oven.

• Bake and broil burners may be hot even though

they are dark in color. Areas near burners and interior surfaces of an oven may become hot enough to cause burns.

• During and after use, DO NOT touch or let

clothing or other ﬂ ammable materials contact heating elements, areas near elements, or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufﬁ cient time to cool. Other surfaces of the oven may become hot enough to cause burns, such as the oven vent opening, the surface near the vent opening, and the oven door window.

Cleaning Safety

• Turn oﬀ all controls and wait for appliance parts

to cool before touching or cleaning them. DO NOT touch the burner grates or surrounding areas until they have had suﬃ cient time to cool.

• Clean the range with caution. Avoid steam

burns; DO NOT use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the range while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner manufacturer.

• DO NOT clean, rub, damage, move or remove

the door gasket. It is essential for a good seal during baking. If the gasket becomes worn or excessively soiled with food particles, replace gasket to assure a tight seal.

Power failure warning

Due to safety considerations and the possibility of personal injury in attempting to light and extinguish the oven burners, the grill and the oven burner should not be used during a power failure. The oven control knob should always remain in the “OFF” position during a power failure.

WARNING!

Never use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing somay result in carbon monoxid poisoning and overheating of the oven

Room ventilation

An exhaust fan may be used with the appliance; in each case it shall be installed in conformity with the appropriate national and local standards. Exhaust hood operation may aﬀ ect other vented appliances; in each case it shall be installed in conformity with the appropriate national and local standards.

Electrical shock hazard

Make sure all controls are OFF and oven is COOL before cleaning. Failure to do so can result in burns or electrical shock. DO NOT touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth as the bulb could break. Should the bulb break, disconnect power to the appliance before removing bulb to avoid electrical shock.

WARNING!

NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil.Doing so blocks air ﬂ ow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a ﬁ re hazard.

Burn hazard

The oven door, especially the glass, can get hot. DO NOT touch the oven door glass!

/ Warnings

Warning-tipping hazard

A child or adult can tip over the range and be killed..

Verify the anti-tip device has been properly installaed and engaged. Ensure the anti-tip device is re-engaged when the range is moved. Do not operate the range without the anti-tipdevice in place and engaged.

Failure to do so can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

The instructrions shall warn the user of possible hazard or injures that may result from the misuse of appliance doors such as stepping, leanign or sitting on the doors.

GAS COOKTOP

/ Gas cooktop

BURNER CAPS AND GRATES

The burners and the burner caps must be properly placed for the cooktop to function properly.

The burner grates must be properly placed inside the recess on the cooktop.

The correct ﬂ ame height depends on:

• size and material of pan being used

• food being cooked

• amount of liquid in the pan.

Never extend the ﬂ ame beyond the base of the pan. Use a low or medium ﬂ ame for pan materials that conduct the heat slowly, such as porcelain coated steel or glass-ceramic.

Because the edges of the ﬂ ame are much hotter than its center, the ﬂ ame tips should stay beneath the bottom of the cookware. Flame tips which extend beyond the sides of the cookware emit unnecessary heat into the room and can also damage cookware handles, which increases the risk of injury.

USING THE GAS BURNERS

• Press in the control knob and turn it anti-clockwi-

se, to HIGH position.

• Continue to hold the knob in for 5 to 10 seconds

after the burner ignition before releasing

• Adjust ﬂ ame with the knob as needed.

MAKING SURE THE FLAME IS OPTIMAL

The ﬂ ame should be stable with no excessive noise or ﬂ uttering. The color should be blue with no yellow on the tips. It is not uncommon to see orange in the ﬂ ame color; this indicates the burning of airborne impurities in the gas and will disappear with use.

• With propane (LP) gas, slight yellow tips on the

primary icon are normal.

• The ﬂ ame should burn completely around the

burner cap. If it doesn’t, check that the cap is positioned

• Correctly on the base and that the ports are not

blocked.

USING THE POWER BURNER

To give further ﬂ exibility, the dual power burner can be used as a single simmer burner if the central burner alone is ignited or as a power burner if the outer burner is also ignited. To light the central burner, press in the control knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the HIGH of the single ring position Continue to hold the knob in for 5 to 10 seconds after the burner ignites before releasing To also light the outer burner ,turn the knob to the HIGH double ring. Adjust the ﬂ ame as required.

GAS SHUT-OFF SAFETY THERMOCOUPLE

A ﬂ ame failure device (thermocouple) on each burner acts as a safety gas cut-oﬀ in case the ﬂ ame is accidentally blown out. A thermocouple detects the absence of a ﬂ ame and stops the supply of gas. The thermocouple must be heated for a few seconds when the burner is ignited before the knob is released.

USING SPECIALTY COOKWARE Woks

Either ﬂ at-based or round-bottom woks with the accessory ring can be used on all models. Round bottom woks must be used with a support ring. In some models the porcelain-coated cast iron wok support ring must be purchased separately.

Simmer ring

For very slow cooking the porcelain coated simmer ring should be used. In some models the porcelain-coated cast iron simmer ring must be purchased separately. Simmer ring must be used for pan with diametr less than 4 inches.

NOTE: In the event of a power failure, the burners can be lit with a match or gas lighter. The ﬂ ame failure devices will continue to function normally.

ELECTRIC CONVECTION OVEN

/ Electric convection oven

Attention!

When using the oven for the ﬁ rst time it should be operated for 15-30 minutes at a temperature of about 500°F/260°C without cooking anything inside in order to eliminate any moisture and odours from the internal insulation.

SHELVES POSITIONS

Shelves are mounted on the appropriate guides situated on the sides of the oven compartment. Insert the shelf between top and bottom guide in any of the 7 positions indicated.

COOLING FAN

The range is equipped with a cooling fan designed to prevent the control panel and knobs from overheating. The cooling fan will operate when the oven is on.

OVEN COOKING MODES

The oven is equipped with 4 heating elements, used alone or in combination to create diﬀ erent cooking modes:

• Upper bake element

• Lower bake element

• Broil element

• Convection element

The temperature setting and cooking times can vary slightly from one oven to another. It is possible that recipes and cooking times need to be adjusted accordingly.

Pre-heat

Use this setting for fast pre-heating the oven. This function provides the most eﬃ cient and fastest way to preheat the cavity. Preheat function is unsuitable for use as a cooking function.

Bake

Heat from upper and lower element

Use this setting for baking, roasting, and casseroles on a single rack.

• Standard bake: level 3 or 4

• Taller items: level 3

• Pies: level 2 or 3 to ensure the bottom of the

crust is done without over-browning the top.

• Large cuts of meat or poultry: level 2.

PREHEATING THE OVEN

Most cooking times in recipes are intended for a preheated oven and require that the oven already be at the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Preheating time depends on the temperature setting and the number of racks in the oven.

USING THE OVEN

1. Place rack in desired position and shut the door.

2. Select the oven function with the dedicated function knob. The light in the cavity will turn on.

3. Set the desired temperature with the dedicated selector knob.

This appliance is equipped with 1 indicator light on the front panel. Light on indicates that the oven heating element/s are activated.

Bottom bake

Heat from lower element only

Use this setting at low temperatures for slow-cooking casseroles, custards or for warming plates. Use at high temperatures for cooking sweet and savoury pastry tarts. Use the same rack position as BAKE mode.

Upper bake

Heat from upper element only

Use this setting for browning and reheating dishes such as lasagne, moussaka and cauliﬂ ower cheese.

The up Bake mode is best for baking on one rack

• Standard bake --> level 3 or 4

• tall items, level 3

• Pies level 4 or 5 to ensure the top of the crust is

done without over-browning the bottom.

/ Electric convection oven

Broil

Heat from the broil element only

The BROIL setting creates intense heat from the top of the cavity. The broil mode is eﬀ ective when food is placed on upper racks.

• Beef steaks, ground meat patties, and lamb

chops 1 inch or less: level 6.

• Meat 1 inches or more thick, ﬁ sh, poultry, pork

chops, ham steaks 1 inch or more: level 5.

• Browning food: level 6 (no longer than 15mins)

Convection broil

Heat from broil element and air ﬂ ow convection with fan.

Use this setting for browning and cooking evenly food on all sides, including bottom. Also recommended for food that is too delicate to turn over such as ﬁ sh. The fan circulates hot air around the food helping to cook it all the way through. The degree of browning on each side might be diﬀ erent.

The conv broil mode must be used on one rack,

• sausages and chicken portions: level 5 or 6

• foods with high water content such as bacon

and chops: level 5 or 6 (door closed 400°F )

Convection bake

Heat from upper and lower bake element and air ﬂ ow convection with fan.

Use this setting to bake and roast diﬀ erent foods at the same time with no taste transfer. The fan circulates the hot air around the oven for uniform cooking of larger quantities of food. Use for roasting vegetables, meat and poultry, or baked ﬁ sh. This function is the best one for cooking frozen products and breaded/battered chicken or ﬁ sh. It may be used for cakes, cookies, biscuits and other foods on multiple racks.

• Single rack: use the same rack position as

bake

• 2 racks: use level 3 and 5

• 3 racks : use level 2 ,4, 6

Pizza

Heat from lower bake element and circular element and airﬂ ow convection with fan.

Use for cooking pizza, pastry or ﬂ at breads to get a perfectly cooked base.

Use level 3 or level 2 to ensure the bottom of the crust is done.

SPECIAL FUNCTIONS

Light

Use this function to light the oven when the oven is oﬀ (for example to clean the oven). Turn the function knob to ‘bake’. DO NOT turn on Oven Temperature Control Knob.

Prooﬁ ng

The proof feature maintains the warm, needed for prooﬁ ng yeast. It is best to start with a cool oven when using the prooﬁ ng function.Turn the function knob to ‘bake’. DO NOT turn on Oven Temperature Control Knob. Do not open the oven door unnecessarily.

Convection Defrost

Air is circulated by the airﬂ ow fans. The fan accelerates natural defrosting of food without heat. DO NOT leave defrosted food in the oven for more than two hours. Place the frozen food on a baking sheet. Turn the function knob to ‘CONV’. DO NOT turn on Oven Temperature Control Knob.

Use the same rack position as BAKE. When using 2 racks, use level 3 and 5.

Convection

Heat from the convection element and airﬂ ow convection with fan.

Use this mode for most recipes being careful at calibrating the time. Less time is usually required to reach the desired result when using convection. The temperature is kept uniform throughout the oven, which is particularly suitable for baking on several levels or for batch cooking.
