Dear Customer,

We thank you and congratulate you on your choice.

This practical appliance, which is modern and functional, has been manufactured from top-quality materials which have been subjected to a strict quality control during the entire manufacturing process, and have been carefully tested so that they will meet all your cooking needs. In addition, we are pleased to supply you with this instruction book which is divided into two sections: one on how to use the appliance, and the other on its installation.

We strongly advise to read through these simple instructions, so as to ensure that you get perfect results from the moment you first use this appliance. This book contains important information, not only on how to use the appliance, but also on maintenance and safety. When our products are being transported, they must be provided with suitable protective packaging. However, we have reduced our packaging to the bare essentials, and it is all completely recyclable. You too can contribute to the conservation of the environment by depositing the packaging in the nearest recycling container to your home. Used oil should not be poured down the sink, as this causes serious damage to the environment. Pour it into a closed receptacle and take it to a recycling point, or simply put in your rubbish bin. It will then finish up in a controlled dump, which though it is not the best solution, it does prevent water pollution. Your children and you yourself will be grateful for it. Before you get rid of an old appliance, make sure you render it useless, and then take it to a collecting centre for recyclable materials. Ask your local authorities for details on the nearest centre to your home.

IMPORTANT:

In the unlikely event that the appliance should arrive damaged or not meet your expectations in terms of quality, please inform us as soon as possible. For the warranty to be valid, the appliance must not have been tampered with, or used inappropriately.

The gas burners

Figure. 1	Each control knob on the oven and on the control panel
	is clearly marked to show which burner it controls.
	Figure 1.

To light one of the burners, press in the control knob of the respective burner and turn it to the left, as far as the ignition symbol, and hold it there for a couple of seconds until the burner lights. Now release the knob and turn it to the desired heating setting. If the burner does not light, repeat the process.

If your cooking hob is not fitted with this automatic lighting feature, use a lighter or a match to light the burner. If the ignition sparkers are dirty, this makes the burner harder to light, so you should keep them as clean as possible. Clean them using a small brush, and remember that the ignition sparkers must be treated very gently. If the burners on your cooking hob are fitted with safety valves (which stop the flow of gas if one of the burners accidentally goes out), light the burners in the same way, though you should continue to hold in the control knob for a few seconds after the flame lights. If the burner does not light, repeat the process, this time keeping the control knob pressed in for 10 seconds.

To turn off the burner, turn the control knob to the right, to setting 0.

Depending on which model of modern, functional cooking hob you have purchased, you can have progressive taps fitted which allow you to adjust the flame to the desired heat.

Depending on the model, your cooking hob may have a triple-flame burner, which is very practical if you wish to cook with receptacles such as paella pans or Chinese woks (to create all kinds of Asian dishes). When you are using this gas appliance, it will make the kitchen hot and humid, and therefore you must ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated. Either keep the natural ventilation apertures open, or install an extractor hood.

If you use your appliance for a long period of time, you may need extra ventilation - either open a window (though watch out for draughts) or turn up the power on the extractor hood, if possible.

An orange-coloured flame is normal and it is produced in the presence of dust in the atmosphere, spillages, etc.

Diameter of receptacles (in cm)

Depending on the model:

BURNER		MINIMUM Ø OF RECEPTACLE			MAXIMUM Ø OF RECEPTACLE
Triple-flame:			22 cm
Rapid burner:			22 cm			26 cm
Auxiliary burner:			12 cm			14 cm
Electrical hot plates:			14 cm			18 cm

Additional pan supports:

Figure. 2

Depending on which model you have purchased, your cooking hob may include a very useful extra cradle support for use on the triple-flame burner for receptacles with diameters of over 26 cm, barbecue griddles, earthenware cooking pots and all kinds of concave receptacles (such as Chinese woks). Figure 2.

If you do not have this additional cradle support, the technical service for the make can supply you with one (code no. 363300).

Pan support for coffee pot: depending on the model, your cooking hob may include an additional coffee pot support, which is exclusively for use on the auxiliary burner with receptacles of a diameter smaller than 10 cm. If you do not have this additional pot support, the technical service for the make can supply you with one (code no. 184200).

The manufacturer declines all responsibility if these additional pan supports are not used or are used incorrectly.

Electric hot plates

Before you use your hot plate for the first time, turn it on at full heat for five minutes, with no receptacle on it. During this time the hot plate will give off a certain amount of smoke and smell, which will disappear as you use it. Except for this first time that you switch them on, never use the hot plates without receptacles on them.

When you begin cooking, we recommend turning the control up to the maximum setting and then, depending on the quantity and quality of the foods being cooked, turn down the heat to medium setting.

As the hotplate takes a while to cool down, you can turn it off a little before the food is cooked, so as to save energy, and carry on cooking using the residual heat in the hot plate.

Always use receptacles which have perfectly flat, thick bottoms, and which have a diameter similar to that of the heating element - and never use receptacles smaller than the element.

Try not to spill liquids on the hotplate surface, or to place wet receptacles on top of it.

Warnings and suggestions for cooking

DON’T

Don't use small receptacles on large burners.

The flame should never come up the sides of the receptacle.

Never cook without a lid or with the lid half off - you are wasting energy.

Do not use receptacles with uneven bottoms, as they make the food take longer to cook and waste energy.

Never try to heat food by placing aluminium tins or plastic receptacles onto your cooking hob, as the containers will melt. Do not place a receptacle on one side of a burner, as it could tip over.

Do not use large-diameter receptacles on the burners nearest to the control knobs, as the flames might reach them, making them so hot that they could cause injury. Never place receptacles directly on top of the burners.

Do not use excessive weight, or strike the cooking hob with heavy objects.

Never use two burners or heat sources to heat one single receptacle.

Avoid using griddles and earthenware pots etc. at maximum heat for a long time.

DO

Always use receptacles that are suitable for each burner, so as to avoid wasting gas and discolouring the receptacles.

Always place the lid on the receptacles.

Only use pots, saucepans and frying pans with thick, flat bottoms.

Always place the receptacle right over the burner, not to one side.

Place the receptacle on top of the pan support. Make sure that the pan supports and burner covers are in their correct positions before using the appliance.

Handle receptacles with care when they are on the cooking hob.

Only use one receptacle per burner. Use the additional cradle support on the tripleflame burner.

12

Warnings and suggestions for using steel: Cleaning and care

DON’T DO

Never use abrasive products, sharp objects, steel scourers or knives, etc. for removing the remains of hardened food from the cooking hob, pan supports, burners or electric hot plates. If your cooking hob is fitted with a glass or aluminium panel, never use a knife, scraper or similar to clean the point where it joins the metal.

Never use steamcleaning machines on your cooking hob, as it could damage it.

Avoid spilling acidic liquids (such as lemon juice or vinegar) on your cooking hob.

Try not to spill salt on the surface of the electrical hotplate.

Once the appliance has cooled down, clean it with a sponge, soap and water. Remove any spilled liquid as soon as possible, as this will save you time and effort later.

To keep the burners and pan supports clean, you should clean them periodically by placing them in soapy water and brushing them with a non-metallic brush to ensure that the holes and grooves are perfectly clean, to provide a perfect flame. Always dry the burner covers and the pan supports if they have become wet.

After cleaning and drying the burners, make sure the burner covers are correctly placed on the burner’s flame diffuser.

If prolonged use has worn away the surface of the electrical hot plates, sprinkle them with a few drops of oil or other maintenance products that are commonly available on the market.

Owing to the high temperatures that the triple-flame burner ring cover has to withstand (as well as the stainless steel areas such as the plate rings, grease traps and the area around the burners, etc.), they will EVENTUALLY become discoloured with time. Clean them each time you use them, with a product that is suitable for stainless steel.

After washing the pan supports, dry them completely before cooking with them again. Drops of water or damp patches on the surfaces when you begin cooking may cause deterioration of the enamel.

If the pan supports on your cooking hob are fitted with rubber rests, take care when you clean them, as they might come off, leaving your pan support without protection, and it may scratch the cooking hob. Stainless steel cleaners should not be used in the area around the controls, as the setting indications might become erased.

13

Warnings and suggestions for using glass: Cleaning and care

DON’T

Never use detergent powder, oven-cleaning sprays or abrasive sponges, as they may scratch the glass.

Never use sharp objects such as metal scourers or knives to remove the hardened remains of food from the surface. Never use a knife, scraper or similar to clean the area where the glass meets the trim of the burners or the metal trim edging.

Never slide receptacles across the glass surface, as you may scratch it. In addition, try not to drop heavy or sharp objects on the glass.

Never strike any part of the cooking hob.

Grains of sand that may come from cleaning fruits and vegetables will scratch the glass surface.

DO

To prolong the life of the glass, always clean with a soapy sponge, but only when the appliance has cooled down.

Clean the surface of the heating element once it has cooled down, and every time you use it.

Even small patches of food or dirt will burn when you switch the plate on again.

To keep the burners and pan supports clean, you must clean them periodically by placing them in soapy weather and brushing and with a non-metallic brush to ensure that the holes and grooves are perfectly clean, and can provide a perfect flame. Always dry the burner covers and the pan supports if they have become wet.

After cleaning and drying the burners, make sure the burner covers are correctly placed on the burner’s flame diffuser.

Owing to the high temperatures that the triple-flame burner ring cover has to withstand (as well as the stainless steel areas such as the plate rings, grease traps and the area around the burners, etc.), they will eventually become discoloured with time. Clean them each time you use them, with a product that is suitable for stainless steel.

When you are cleaning the pan supports, take care with the rubber rests, as they could come off and the pan support could scratch the glass next time you use it.

After washing the pan supports, dry them completely before cooking with them again. Drops of water or damp patches on the surfaces when you begin cooking may cause deterioration of the enamel.

14

Warnings and suggestions for using glass ceramic surfaces: cleaning and

care

DON’T DO

Never use detergent powder, oven cleaning sprays or abrasive sponges, as they may scratch the glass ceramic surface.

Never use sharp objects such as metal scourers or knives to remove the hardened remains of food from the surface.

Never slide receptacles across the glass surface, as you may scratch it. In addition, try not to drop heavy or sharp objects on the glass.

Never strike any part of the cooking hob.

To prolong the life of the

glass, always clean with a soapy sponge, but only

when the appliance has cooled down.

Clean the surface of the heating element once it has cooled down, and

every time you use it. Even small patches of food or dirt will burn when

you switch the plate on again.

Grains of sand that may come from cleaning fruits and vegetables will scratch the glass surface.

Melted sugar or foods with a high sugar content which has spilled onto the surface should be cleaned off immediately.

Always use a special flat scraper for glass, taking special care not to scrape near the trim of the gas burners.

We recommend taking regular care of this appliance.

Owing to the high temperatures that the triple-flame burner ring cover has to withstand (as well as the stainless steel areas such as the plate rings, grease traps and the area around the burners, etc.), they will eventually become discoloured with time. Clean them each time you use them, with a product that is suitable for stainless steel.

When you are cleaning the pan supports, take care with the rubber rests, as they could come off and the pan support could scratch the glass next time you use it.

ATTENTION: CLEANING FOR VITRO-GRILL APPLIANCES

If you work with or cook food directly on the countertop DO NOT CLEAN the counter with any toxic components, or use aluminium scouring pads.

We recommend that you use a detergent with a non-solid base, that does not contain “powders” or have a sandy texture, and use a scraper to assist you in the cleaning.

Brûleurs à gaz

Toutes les manettes de commande situées sur la

fig. 1 cuisinière ou la boîte de commande indiquent le brûleur qu’elles contrôlent. fig. 1.

Pour allumer un brûleur, pressez sur le bouton du brûleur choisi puis tournez-le vers la gauche jusqu’à la position d’allumage, en le maintenant sur la position maximum pendant quelques secondes jusqu’à ce que le brûleur s’allume puis relâchez-le et réglez-le sur la position souhaitée. Si l’allumage ne se produit pas, répétez l’opération.

Si votre plaque de cuisson ne possède aucun type d’allumage automatique, approchez un type de flamme (briquet, allumettes, etc.) du brûleur. Si les bougies sont sales, l’allumage sera défectueux, maintenez votre plaque de cuisson toujours très propre. Réalisez l’entretien avec une petite brosse, en n’oubliant pas que la bougie ne doit pas souffrir de coups violents.

Si votre plaque de cuisson a des brûleurs disposant de soupapes de sécurité qui empêchent la sortie de gaz si les brûleurs s’éteignent accidentellement, procédez à l’allumage de la même manière mais en maintenant le bouton enfoncé jusqu’à ce que se produise l’allumage puis continuez à presser pendant quelques secondes avec la flamme déjà allumée. Si l’allumage ne se produit pas, répétez l’opération, cette fois-ci en appuyant environ 10 secondes.

Pour éteindre, tournez le bouton vers la droite jusqu’à la position 0.

Selon le modèle de votre moderne et fonctionnelle table de cuisson, il est possible de disposer de robinets progressifs vous permettant de trouver le réglage nécessaire entre la flamme maximum et la minimum.

Selon le modèle, votre table de cuisson peut disposer d’un brûleur à triple flamme, très pratique et commode pour cuisiner avec des poêles à paella, Wok chinois (toute sorte de plats asiatiques) etc.

L’utilisation de l’appareil à gaz produit de la chaleur et de l’humidité dans la pièce où il est installé. Vous devez assurer une bonne ventilation de la cuisine : maintenez ouverts les orifices de ventilation naturelle, ou installer un dispositif de ventilation mécanique (hotte).

L’utilisation continue de votre appareil peut exiger une ventilation supplémentaire, par exemple ouvrir une fenêtre (sans provoquer de courants) ou augmenter la puissance

de la ventilation mécanique s’il en existe une.

Une flamme orangée est normale et se produit quand il y a de la poussière dans l’atmosphère, quand un liquide a versé, etc.

Plaques électriques

Avant d’utiliser la plaque pour la première fois, faites-la chauffer pendant 5 minutes sans poser aucun récipient et avec le régulateur situé sur la puissance maximum. Pendant cette période, il est normal qu’il se dégage de la fumée et des odeurs, celles-ci disparaîtront au fur et à mesure.

A part ce premier chauffage, n’utilisez pas les plaques sans récipients.

Il est recommandé, au début de la cuisson, de placer la commande sur la position maximum et selon la quantité et la qualité des aliments, passer ensuite sur une position intermédiaire de maintien.

Il est possible d’éteindre la plaque un peu avant la fin de la cuisson et profiter de l’inertie thermique de la

plaque ; ceci permettra de faire des économies d’énergie vu que la cuisson continuera grâce à la chaleur accumulée dans la plaque.

Utilisez des récipients à fond parfaitement plat, épais et d’une taille similaire à celle du chauffage, jamais d’une taille inférieure.

Evitez les débordements de liquide sur la surface de la plaque, ainsi que de travailler avec des récipients mouillés.
