Precautions for use

The following advice is intended to help you save energy and prevent pan damage:

Minimum pan diameter

24 cm 28 cm

Use pans which are the right size for each burner.

Do not use small pans on large burners. The flame must not touch the sides of the pan.

Do not use damaged pans, which do not sit evenly on the hob. Pans may tip over.

Only use pans with a thick, flat base.

Maximum pan diameter

Do not cook without using a lid and make sure the lid is properly fitted. This wastes energy.

Always place the ovenware centrally over the burner. Otherwise, there is a risk that it may tip over.

Place the pans on the pan supports, never directly on the burner.

Make sure that the pan supports and burner caps are correctly positioned before using the appliance.

Care and cleaning

within 15 seconds, wait at least one minute. Then repeat the process to light the burner.

Caution!

The gas grill only works when the protecting plate is inserted. Make sure that the protecting plate is correctly inserted.

With attentive care and cleaning, your hob and oven will retain its looks and remain in good working order for a long time. We will explain here how you should care for and clean them correctly.

Notes

■ Slight differences in the colours on the front of the oven are

caused by the use of different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.

■ Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are

caused by reflections made by the oven light.

■ Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can

cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does not affect operation. The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.

Cleaning agents

Damage to the various different surfaces caused by using the wrong cleaning agent can be avoided by observing the following instructions.

When cleaning the hob do not use

■ undiluted washing-up liquid or dishwasher detergent,

■ scouring pads,

■ abrasive cleaning agents such as oven cleaner or stain

remover,

■ high-pressure cleaners or steam jets.

■ Do not clean individual parts in the dishwasher.

When cleaning the oven do not use

■ sharp or abrasive cleaning agents,

■ cleaning agent with a high alcohol content,

■ scouring pads,

■ high-pressure cleaners or steam jets.

■ Do not clean individual parts in the dishwasher.

Wash new sponges thoroughly before first use.

Saving energy

■ Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe or in

the tables in the instruction manual.

■ Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins, because

they absorb heat particularly well.

■ Open the oven door as infrequently as possible while the

food is baking and roasting.

■ For longer cooking times, the oven can be turned off

10 minutes before the end of the cooking time, and the meal can be finished using residual heat.

Cakes and pastries

Cake tins

When you are baking in the cake tin, insert the wire rack at the level indicated and place the cake tin on the wire rack.

Dark-coloured cake tins are the most suitable.

If you use light-coloured baking tins or glass, the baking time increases and the cake is not browned evenly.

Only use heat-resistant glass dishes. Do not place a hot glass dish on a cold or wet surface. The glass could break.

If you want to use silicone moulds, follow the guidelines in the manufacturer's instruction manual. Silicone moulds turn out slightly smaller than normal cake tins. For this reason, the quantities may be slightly different to those indicated in your recipe.

Baking tables for the lower burner in the gas oven

In the tables, you will find the optimum types of heating for a selection of cakes and gateaux. The temperature and cooking times depend on the quantity and consistency of the dough.

The values in the table apply to dishes placed into the cooking compartment when it is cold and empty.

The heat is distributed in the oven as soon as the gas escaping from the lower gas burner is ignited. For this reason, the underside of food is usually more browned than the top.
