INSTALLATION
This appliance shall be installed only by authorised personnel and in accordance with
the manufacturer's installation instructions,
local gas fitting regulations, municipal building
codes, water supply regulations, electrical wiring regulations, AS 5601 - Gas Installations and
any other statutory regulations.Before installing, ensure that the appliance is correctly preset for the local distribution conditions (gas type
and pressure).The presettings of this appliance
are indicated on the nameplate shown on the
cover.This appliance is not connected to a flue
gas extractor device. It must be installed and
connected in accordance with the regulations
in force.When connection to gas and electrical
supply is completed and oven is located in its
final position, the oven must be stabilized by
using the two chains located at the rear of the
oven. (see fig. 7)
Each chain must be firmly attached to the rear
vertical wall behind the oven. The anchor used
to attach the chains to the rear wall must be of
a type suitable for the purpose.
If the appliance is installed between two
cupboards, drill a hole on each side of the
cupboards, pass the chains through the holes
and anchor the chains within each cupboard.
MAKE SURE THE ANTI-TILTING CHAINS
ARE TAUGHT WHEN ANCHORED TO PREVENT THE APPLIANCE TILTING.

CONNECTING TO THE ELECTRICAL
MAINS
Installing a domestic appliance can be a
complicated opera which if not carried out
correctly, can seriously affect consumer
safety.It is for this reason that a professionally qualified person should undertake the
task who will carry it out in accordance with
the technical regulations in force.In the event
that this advice is ignored and the installation
is carried out by an unqualified person, the
manufacturer declines all responsibility for
any technical failure of the product whether
or not it results in damage to goods or injury
to individuals.
“The installation must conform to the
standard directives”.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility
for any damage that
may be caused by unsuitable or unreasonable use.
Warning :
• Always check before any electrical op-
eration, the supply tension shown on the
electricity meter, the adjustment of the
circuit-breaker, the continuity of the connection to earth to the installation and that
the fuse is suitable.
• The electrical connection to the installation
should be made via
a socket with a plug with earth, or via an
omni pole cut-out switch. If the appliance
has a socket outlet, it must be installed so
that the socket outlet is accessible.The
manufacturer cannot be held responsible
for any accidents resulting from the use
of an appliance which is not connected to
earth, or with a faulty earth connection
continuity.
• Any queries regarding the power supply
cord should be referred to After Sales
Service or a qualified technician.
Warning! This appliance must be earthed.
In the absence of adequate earthing you
will notice that when touching the
metal parts of your appliance an electrical
dispersion can be felt due to the presence
of a radio interference suppressor.
IMPORTANT: When the connection opera-
tion to the appliance terminals is finished,
tighten the cable clamp and close the cover.
(see diagrams in fig. 2 at the back of the
manual).
CAUTION
- Before doing any work inside the cooker,
disconnect the mains plug.
IMPORTANT: the manufacturer declines all
liability for damage due to failure to comply
with the regulations and standards in force.

HOW TO USE THE COOKER
HOW TO USE THE CERAMIC HOB
The hotplate power has a sequential control
device which ensures excellent control of the
cooking temperature.
The heat settings are from 1 to 6. The knob
can be set in the required position by turning
it to right or left.
When one of the cooking zones is hot, the
warning light E (see fig. 1) comes on; it
will not go off until the temperature of all
the hotplates has dropped below about 60
degrees C).
The four cooking zones are indicated by the
outlines screen-printed on the hob. For good
efficiency and appropriate energy consumption, only use saucepans and utensils with
thick, perfectly flat bottoms. The diameter
of the base of the pan must be at least as
large as the outline marked on the hob. If the
bottom of the pan does not cover the heating
area, energy will be wasted. Preferably, it
should be slightly larger in diameter.
Pan bottoms and the cooking surface must
be clean and dry. Otherwise heat, and thus
energy, will be wasted.
Note:
- Never cook directly on the hotplates.
- To save time, cooking with the hotplates
may be started at full heat (knob on 6),
turning down to the ideal temperature once
the contents of the pan have heated up.
- All the hotplates are equipped with a temperature limiter which prevents them from
overheating, even if a hotplate is operated
at the highest setting with no pan, or if pans
with uneven bottoms are used.
The table below will serve as a guide, bearing
in mind that cooking times and temperatures
may vary depending on the type and amount
of foods cooked and personal taste.
CAUTION
- Do not look directly at the halogen hotplates
while they are on, as the light emitted from
the hotplates may be harmful to your eyes.
- The ceramic glass surface is very tough but
it is not shatterproof and it may not be used
to place objects upon it.
- It may be damaged if struck violently by
sharp or very hard objects.
- If breakages, crazing or cracks appear on
its surface, stop using it and contact the
after-sales service immediately.
- Do not place aluminium foil or plastic film
wrappings on the hob while it is still hot.
- Soon after installation, the hob may give off
a burnt smell; this will disappear after the
first few times it is used.
IMPORTANT:
Because of their height, children may fail to
see the residual heat warning light. Take care
that they do not touch the hob, even if the
heating elements are switched off.
CLEANING OF THE CERAMIC HOB
The ceramic hob is much easier to clean than
a hob with conventional hotplates. Light dirt
can be removed with a sheet of damp kitchen
paper. To remove tougher dirt, use the same
cleaning methods as for glass, with specific
detergents. If a pan boils over onto the hob,
use a spatula to remove the deposit ormed.
Sugar or syrup must be removed immediately before it forms caramel on the glass.
Any residues of aluminium foil or plastic film
wrappings accidentally placed on the hob
while it is still hot must also be removed at
once. Water marks and traces of scale can
be removed with white wine vinegar. Always

remember to rinse and dry the surface with
kitchen paper after use. Never use abrasive or corrosive detergents, such as oven
sprays, degreasers, rust-removers, powder
polishing detergents or abrasive sponges.
Do not allow grains of sand to be left on the
hob when cleaning vegetables, for example,
as they may scratch the surface. Do not slide
pans with rough bottoms over the hob; they
may mark or even scratch the glass.
HOW TO USE THE ELECTRIC GRILL
WITH ELECTRIC OVEN
- open the oven door;
- place the food on the shelf;
- place the dripping pan underneath the shelf;
- place the dripping pan and shelf on the
uppermost level in the oven;
- close the door;
- switch on the grill element;
- after a few minutes, turn the food to expose
the other side to the infrared radiation (the
cooking time depends on the type of food
and personal taste).To see the table”Fodd
