A label attached to the last page of this handbook and in the food warmer drawer (or on the back) of the appliance indicates the appliance adjustment conditions: type of gas and operating pressure. IMPORTANT: This appliance must be installed in compliance with current national standards in force and used only in a well-ventilated room. This appliance shall be installed only by authorised persons and in accordance with the manufacturer's installation instructions, local gas fitting regulations, municipal building codes, electrical wiring regulations, local water supply regulations, AS/NZS 5601.1-2010-Gas Installations–General installations and any other statutory regulations.
WARNING: It should be recalled that the appliance utilises a threaded 1/2" gas cylindrical male fitting according to UNI-ISO 228-1.
For ease of service, the cooker should be connected with a Flexible Hos e, which complies with AS/NZS 1869 (AGA Approved), 10mm ID, class B or D, between 1 - 1.2m long and in accordance with AS5601 for a high level connection.
WARNING: Ensure that the hose is not subjected to abrasion, kinking or permanent deformation and should be able to be inspected along its entire length. Unions compatible with the hose fittings must be used and con nections tested for gas leaks. The fixed consumer piping outlet should be at appro ximately the sam e height as the co oker connection point, pointing downwards and approximately 200mm - 300mm in from the left han d side of the cooker. The hose should be clear of the floor when the cooker is in the installed position. A hose restraint chain should be anchor ed to the wall to prevent strain on the hose connections when the cooker is pulled forward.
Fit the supplied gas connectors as shown in Fig. 10 for your installation gas type. The gas inlet has a 1/2" BSP male thread. When making the connection, take care not to apply excessive stress by counterbalancing tightening force. Ensure that the available gas supply is the same as the gas type label affixed near the gas connection point. If not, contact Bertazzoni Service Center for a Gas Conversion Kit.
Natural Gas
The natural gas regulator supplied must be fitted for natural gas. Ensure t he arrow on the regulator points towards the direction of the gas flow. Commissioning Procedure - The test point pr essure must be adjusted to 1.00 kPa with the Wok and Rapid Burners operating on maximum flame.
Universal LPG (U-LPG)
Fit the LPG test point assembly (supplied in the gas conversion kit). An AGA Approved gas regulator suitable for a supply pressure of 2.75kPa should be part of the gas tank supply.
ANTI-TILTING CHAIN/HOSE RESTRAINING CHAIN
A chain should be fitted by the installer within 50mm of the hose connection point to prev ent strain on the hose when the cooker is pulled forward. The chain should restrict the appliance movement to no more than 80% of the hose length. After the chain is installed, check that there is no strain on the hose or gas connections when the c ooker is pulled as fa r forward as the chain allows.
The cooker is also supplied with two chain s which are connected to the rear left and right of the appliance. The chains should be connected to the wall directly behind the chains as low as possible to prevent the appliance from tilting forward.

USING BURNERS
A diagram is etched on the control panel above each knob which indicates which burner corresponds to that knob. The burners can be ignited in different ways depending on the type of appliance and its specific characteristics:
- Manual lighting (it is always possible even when the power is cut off): Turn the knob anticlockwise that corresponds to the burner selected, setting it to the MAXIMUM position at the etched star (large flame Fig.23-24) and place a lit match up to the burner.
- Electric ignition: Turn the knob counterclockwise that corresponds to the burner sele cted, setting it to the MAXIMUM
position (large flame Fig. 23-24) and keep on pressing the knob in correspondence of the ignition s ymbol marked with a star (for cookers equipped with ignition trough knob) or press the ignition button marked with a star and release it as soon as the burner has ignited.
- Burner ignition equipped with safety device (thermocouple)(fig.25): Turn the knob anticlockwise that corresponds to the burner selected, setting it to the MAXIMUM position at t he etche d s tar (large fl ame F ig. 23-24), pr ess the kn ob a nd activate one of the above-mentioned ignition devices. Once ignited, keep pressing the knob for about 10 seconds to allow the flame to heat the thermocouple. If the burner goes out after releasing the knob, repeat the entire operation. Note: It is recommended not to try to ignite a burner if the relative flame cap is not in the correct position.
If the flame does not light after the first attempt, wait 5 minutes for the gas to dissipate before attempting to re-light the burner.
Tips for using burners correctly:
- Use suitable pots for each burner (see tab. 5 and Fig. 27).
- When the liquid is boiling, turn the knob to the MINIMUM position (small flame Fig. 23-24).
- Always use pots with a cover. TABLE N°5

NOTE: use flat-bottomed pans NOTE: after cleaning the burners, make sure the caps “A” an d flame spreader heads “B” are positioned properly as shown in figure 26A and are not positioned as shown in figure 26B. WARNING: If the power is cut off, the burners can be lit with matches. When cooking foods with oil and fat, which are very flammable, the user should not leave the appliance unattended. If the appliance is equipped with a glass cover, such a cover may break when h eated. Turn off all burners before lowering th e cover. Do not use sprays near the appliance when it is being used. When using the burners, make sure that the handles of the pots are correctly positioned. Keep children away from the appliance. If equipped with a cover, before being closed, any food deposits should be cleaned off the built-in surface. NOTE: The use of a gas cooking appliance produces heat and humidity in the room where it is installed. Therefore, proper aeration in the room is needed while ensuring that natural ventilation openings remain unobstructed (Fig.2) and activating the mechanical aeration device/exhaust hood or electric fan (Fig. 3 and Fig.
4). Intensive and continuous use of the appliance m ay require additional aeration, for example by opening a
window, or more efficient aeration by increasing the power of the mechanical exhauster, if installed.

USING THE GAS OVEN
All the gas oven cookers are equipped with a thermostat a nd safety device to ad just the cooking temperature. T he oven temperature is set by turning the knob counterclockwise to match the indicator with the temperature selected. The gas oven can be combined with a gas grill or an electric grill. See the specific pages for use information. Operating the fan of the oven by means of the appropriate switch situated on the control panel, the circulation of warm air guarantees a uniform heat distribution. The preheating of the oven can be avoide d. However for delicate baking, it is preferable to warm the oven before introducing the baking- pan. The baking system with the fan convection changes in part the various traditional baking notions. When roasting meat it is not necessary to turn the meat an y more and for a roast on the spit, it is not indispensable to use the spit-roaster, but is sufficient to put the meat directly on the grate. With the use of the fan gas oven, the baking temperatures a re slightly lower of ab out 10-15°C compared to those in use with the traditional gas oven. The oven can also b e used in a traditional way, for foods requiring h eat from the bottom, e.g. pizza.
WARNING: If the burner flames are extinguished accidentally, turn off the control knob and do not try to relight the oven until after at least 1 minute.

The oven burner can be ignited in different ways:
- Manual lighting (it is always possible even when the power is cut off):
To light the oven, open the oven door and t urn the knob so the no. 8 on the scale matches the i ndicator (fig.28-29). At the same time put a lit match next to the ignition tube that is visible on th e oven level (fig. 30). Then press the therm ostat knob (this makes the gas start to flow) and keep it pressed, after the burner h as been completely lit, for 10 seconds. Release the knob and make sure that the burner remains on, otherwise repeat the operation.
- Electric ignition (only for the models equipped with this device):
In this case, first open the oven door, then turn the knob to the maximum temperature setting (number 8). Then press the thermostat knob (models with ignition trough knob). Wait about 10 seconds after the burner h as been completely lit and then release the knob. Make sure that the burner remains on, otherwise repeat the operation. As for cookers without ignition trough knob, press the thermostat knob and the key with the spark symbol, wait about 10 seconds after the burner has been completely lit and then release the knob. Make sure that the burner remains on, other wise repeat the operation.
The ignition device should not be used for more than 15 seconds. If after that period the burner still has not been lit, do not use the device and open the door of the room or wait at least 60 seconds before trying to light the oven again. WARNING: when trying to light the oven, the door must always be open. When using the oven, leave the cooker cover open to prevent it from overheating. NOTICE: when using the oven for the first time it should be operated for 15-30 minutes at a temperature of about 250° without cooking anything inside in order to eliminate any moisture and odours from the internal insulation.
During normal oven use, after lighting the burner and setting the desir ed temperature, wait about 15 minutes before putting in any food to preheat the oven. The oven is equipped with 5 guides at different heights level (fig.31a) which can be use d to insert shelve s or the tray. To keep the oven as clean as possible it is recommended to cook meat on the tray or on the shelf that has been inserted inside the tray. The table below lists the general cooking times an d the position of the tray for different types of foods. Personal experience will help to determine any variations in the values reported in the table. In any case, it is recommended to follow the instructions of the specific recipe being used. Temperatures between brackets are referred to the use of oven with fan assisted gas.
