LEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE

INSTALLING AND USING THIS COOKER

.

■ We have designed your cooker for private

domestic use.

■ Your cooker is designed exclusively for the

cooking of drinks and foodstuffs. It does not
contain any asbestos-based component
parts.

■ Using a gas-powered hob produces both

heat and humidity in the room where it is
used.

Make sure your kitchen is well ventilated :

keep all natural air-vents open or have a
mechanical ventilation system installed (a
mechanically ventilated hood) with a
minimum airflow of 2m3/hr.

■ You must always keep an eye on your

cooking.

■ Prolonged, intensive use of the hob may

require extra ventilation; by opening a
window for example or producing more
efficient ventilation by increasing the power
of the existing mechanical ventilation.

■ Disconnect your cooker from both

electrical and gas supplies before carrying
out any maintenance operations.

■ If you plug in any electrical appliance near

the cooker, make sure that its power cable
is not in contact with any source of heat.

Your cooker in complete safety

■ USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME

:

Before using your oven for the first time,
heat it up empty with the door closed for
approximately 15 minutes on the MAXIMUM
setting in order to help the appliance to "run
in" properly. The mineral wool which
surrounds the oven cavity may at first
produce a particular smell, which is due to
its composition. Similarly, you may notice
that some smoke is being given off.

This is quite normal.

■ Do not allow anyone to lean or sit on the

open oven door.
.

■ The accessible parts or surfaces may

get hot during operation. Keep young
children away.

■ During use, the appliance gets hot.

Ensure that neither you nor anyone
else touches the hot parts.

■ During use, do not pick up the

saucepans, pans or other accessories
(grill, spits, dripping pan, spit cradle,
etc) using your bare hands. Always
use a handpad or protective cloth to
protect you from the heat.

■ If a knob is difficult to turn, DO NOT FORCE

IT

. Call up your installer.

■ This cooker must be installed in confor-

mity with the applicable
rules and used only in a well
ventilated area. Consult the
instructions carefully before installing
and using this cooker.

■ Before installation, ensure that the

local gas distribution conditions (type of
gas and pressure) and the adjustment of
the cooker are all compatible.

■ The adjustment conditions of this

cooker are shown on the label glued
inside the housing.

■ The combustion of the gas is made

possible by the oxygen in the air. It is
therefore necessary that the air should be
renewed constantly and that the combustion
products are removed (an air flow of 2m3per
hour for each kW of power is necessary).

■ This cooker is not connected to an eva-

cuation device for combustion
products. It must be installed and
connected in conformity with the
installation rules applicable and particular
care should be taken with regard to
ventilation.

■ GAS CONNECTIONS :

The gas connection is made at the rear of
the cooker, ensuring that the pipe is never

in contact with the back of the
cooker, that it is not located in a spot

where it is likely to become blocked and
that it cannot come into contact with a
moving item.
The walls (rear and adjacent) must be
made from a heat resistant material or
coated with such a material.

Flexible tubes or pipes must be
accessible along their entire length,
replaced before their expiry date
(shown on the pipe), and have a
maximum length of 2 m.

Connection using a flexible pipe attached
to an end piece is strictly forbidden if
the gas installation is new or modified
(replacement of the gas supply tap).

Fig. 2

The cooker must be connected to the single
phase 220-240 V mains network and the
protective wire (yellow/green) must be
connected to the earth terminal of the
installation.

The cooker is delivered with a power. If it is
necessary to change the power cable or if
the power cable gets damaged, it should be
replaced by the manufacturer, by his after
sales service department or by
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid
all risks. The cable must be of the H 05 RRF
type with three 1.5 mm² conductors.

The power cable must include a green/yel­low conductor connected to the earth termi­nal of the cooker and to the earth
connection on the plug.

The cooker must be connected to the mains
using a CEI60083-standard 2P+E plug or an
all-pole cut-off device with a contact ope­ning distance of at least 3,5 mm.

Using the hob burners

● Ignition with gas safety

Each burner is controlled by a tap with a sa­fety lock which, in the event of accidental
extinction of the flame (overflows, draughts
etc.) quickly shuts off the arrival of gas and
prevents it from accumulating.

The safety feature for the burners takes the
form of a thermocouple located directly next
to the flame.

■ Knobs with built-in ignition:

➡ Press on the knob and turn it di-

rection until you reach the
"High Flame" position

➡ Keep the knob pushed in. This will trig­ger off a series of sparks that will light up
the burner.

In the event of a break in the electricity
supply, it is always possible to light the fla­me by moving a lighted match near the
burner while at the same time keeping

the knob for the corresponding tap
opened at maximum flow and pushed
in.

If ever your flame goes out, relight it
as explain above.

Adjustment to a lower flow is carried out by
moving from the "High Flame" symbol and
the "Low flame" symbol. The ● symbol cor­responds to the total closure of the tap.

To set on the safety system, keep
the knob pressed firmly for a few
seconds after the flame has lit up.

Using the hob burners (cont’d)

Tips for using hob burners.

■ When your preparation reaches boiling

point, there is no need to allow it to boil wi­th large bubbles. The food will not cook mo­re quickly. It will cook better on a lower
light which will maintain gentle
boiling.

■ Adjust the ring of flame to ensure that the

flames do not lick around the saucepan or
other dish Your dishes must be sufficiently
wide to ensure that the flame spreads out
across the base without
encroaching on the sides. Otherwise, you
risk damaging the handle of the dish.

■ Do not use dishes with a domed base or

with a diameter below 12 cm on
reduced flow.

Using the hob burners (cont’d)

Tips for using hob burners.
(cont’d)

■ To ensure the correct ignition of your bur­ners, we advise the following:

- Regularly ensure that the sparkers are
perfectly clean and that the various parts
comprising the burners operate properly.

- Before ignition, ensure that the burner
heads and caps are in the correct position
and that you place your saucepans, pans
and other dishes on the burner.

It is recommended that the electro­nic ignition should not be used if the
burners are not all in place.

-The burner’flames are smaller near the
grid’s fingers to avoid any damage to the
enamel.

- The appearance of yellow specks is due
to the quality of the gas used but in no
way affects the performance of the bur­ners.

- The noise generated by the burners is
related to their power, which in no way
affects the performance of your hob.

- To transfer your dishes from one burner
to another, do not slide them but lift
them in order to avoid moving the grids.

- Rapid cast-iron hob including
temperature limiting device, with control
switches numbered from 0 to 6.

Using the cast-iron hotplate

Tips for using your cast-iron
hotplate

■ Before using the hotplate for the very

first time, allow the hotplate to heat up wi­th
nothing on them at maximum temperature
for 3 minutes to harden the coating.

■ A "Power on" light comes on when the

hotplate is operating.

■ You should use flat bottome dishes which ad-

here to the surface of the ring:

- Made of stainless steel with a thick

or sandwich base.

- Made of aluminium with a thick base

- Made of enamelled steel (thick
sheet metal).

■ You should select a saucepan or pan of a

size suited to your needs. The base diame­ter of the dish should be equal or
superior to that of the hotplate. Use a lid
as often as possible to reduce losses
through evaporation.

■ When your preparation reaches boiling

point, there is no point in allowing it to boil
with huge bubbles. The food will not cook
more quickly. It will cook better on a
lower light which will maintain gentle boi­ling.

■ You can turn the hotplate off by setting

it to 0 before the cooking is finished; you
will use the heat accumulated in the
hotplate and therefore save on electricity.

■ Use dishes with a dry base in order to

avoid rusting on the hotplate.

PREHEATING

•

The "preheating" function should be used before cooking.

•

Before placing the dishes in the oven, preheat to the chosen cooking temperature

until the thermostat light goes out.

*TRADITIONAL

•

Cooking takes place from below and above.

•

After preheating cook roasts, vegetable dishes such as browned potatoes, baked

stuffed tomatoes, fish poultry and tarts.

BOTTOM OVEN

•

The cooking takes place from below.

•

Cooking mode recommended for pizzas, milk bread, cakes... Wet cake mixes will

be perfectly cooked underneath.

GRILL +TURNSPIT

•

The cooking is carried out by the top element.

•

You can use it cook all types of poultry using the turnspit, which comprises a bar fit-

ted with two spikes to hold the roast joint in place. This must be centred correctly.

•

Check that the turnspit is fitted correctly, lined up with the motor, and resting cor-

rectly on its cradle.

•

Place the dripping pan on the first shelf setting or on the floor of the oven if the item

to be roasted is large.

GRILL

•

Mode adapted to grill :

• Preheat for 5 min. with the rack in the oven then place the food on it and place on a
suitable runner (depending on size).

• Place the dripping-pan on the 1st runner.
Pour a glass of water into it ; this tip has the advantage of reducing smoke and smells
particularly when grilling meat, sausages…

•

Ideal for making toast.

* Sequence(s) used for the statement featured on the energy label, in conformity with European standard EN 50304 and
European directive 2002/40/CE.

99634221_GB_A.qxd 02/07/04 08:28 Page 17

Roasting joints

•

Allow all joints to sit at room
temperature for at least 1 hour before
roasting. Remove any excess fat to
prevent smoke and smells.

•

Wherever possible use earthenware
rather than glass dishes (less spitting)
big enough to contain the joint easily.

•

Do not sprinkle with salt before
cooking as this dries the meat out.

•

Add a few tbsp of warm water to the
roasting dish to prevent the juices
burning.

•

Cooking time

- Roast beef 10 to 15 min for 500 g.

- Roast pork 35 to 40 min for 500 g.

- Roast Veal 30 to 40 min for 500 g.

•

After removing from the oven, wrap
the joint in kitchen foil and leave to
recover for 10 to 15 min. The meat will
be more succulent and tender, and
more uniform in colour.

•

Grilling meat: Drizzle with a thin

layer of oil. Avoid pricking red meat
and use a spatula or tongs to turn
over.

•

Prick poultry skin under the wings so

the juices can run out without spitting.

Baking cakes

•

Choosing your cake tin:

Avoid bright shiny tins:

- They require longer cooking times.

- The oven has to be pre-heated.
Use non-stick tins for flans, pies
and quiches. These give crisper
golden pastry on the base.

•

Tip:

Even if your tins are non-stick, use
baking parchment to protect them.
It makes it easier to turn flans etc.
out. Use it too to line enamelled tins
to protect the coating from fruit acids.
Always add yeast last and avoid
contact with salt, which will destroy
the yeast's properties.

Cooking vegetables

•

When preparing a dish topped with

layered potatoes, pre- cook the sliced

potatoes in water or milk.

•

To peel peppers, place them under

a hot grill turning frequently until the

skin bubbles. Pop into a plastic bag

for a few minutes and the skin will

peel away easily.

•

When stuffing tomatoes, slice off

one end and scoop out the pulp and

pips. Salt the inside and leave to drain

on a grid before stuffing.

•

Drain cooked leeks and chicory

thoroughly before coating with a

sauce (ham or béchamel) otherwise

the cooking liquid will water down the

sauce.

•

Mix grated cheese with

breadcrumbs for a topping that is

brown and crispy.

•

When cooking times are long, turn the oven off 5 to 10 minutes before the end and use the residual

heat to finish the dish.

Using the oven

99634221_GB_A.qxd 02/07/04 08:28 Page 18

Cooking on a rotisserie is very efficient and
results in flavourful and evenly cooked
joints. To use it:
➡ engage the spit cradle in the 3rd shelf
position from the bottom (check the
direction)

➡ slide one of the forks onto the spit, then
the meat for roasting, slide on the second
fork, centre them and twist the forks to
tighten them, using the handle,

➡ place the spit on its cradle,
➡ push gently to engage the point of the

spit in the square bit drive at the back of the
oven,

➡ place the multi-purpose dripping pan on
the lower shelf position to collect the
cooking juices.

●Rotisserie (fig. 4)

If the spit has an insulated handle,
unscrew and remove it before
closing the door.

The flat shelf can be used for all dishes and
tins containing food to be cooked or
browned, as well as for grilling.

● Flat shelf (fig. 1)

This is used when cooking with a wok. It
can only be used on the double-crown
burner. Make sure that the base of the
wok doesn't touch the burner.

WARNING : at the end of the cooking
time, never touch any of the accessories
(Grid, drip-tray, etc) with your bare
hands.

● Wok support(fig. 3)

This can be used as a baking tray and has
sloping sides. It can be used for cooking
choux buns, meringues, small cakes, flaky
pastry, etc.
Inserted into the runners under the shelf, it
collects the juices and fat produced when
grilling. It can also be used, half-filled with
water, as a bain marie.
Do not roast joints of meat in the dripping
pan as this will inevitably result in fat
splashes on the sides of the oven.
Never place this tray directly on the floor of
the oven.

Casing

Control knobs

- Sponge the top with soapy water. In the event of spills, use a
standard non abrasive paste cleaner for enamel. Shine with a dry

cloth, or even better with a shammy-leather. Do not allow acidic liquids
(lemon juice, vinegar…) to lay on the enamel for long.
Before opening the cover, remove all soiling or spattering from this. Do
not close it again while the cooker is still warm.
For polished metal surfaces, use commercial products designed for the
upkeep of polished metal.

- Clean the walls with a cloth soaked in very hot soapy water, to remove
fat splashes. We advise frequent cleaning.

- When a large spillage has occurred, wipe it up if possible with a damp
sponge or a soft brush. Otherwise, take a sponge or a cloth soaked in hot
soapy water or cream cleaner and cover the remaining stains. Leave it
there overnight; the deposits will be easily removed the next day.

- Use soapy water on a damp sponge.

Accessories

- Only use soapy water on a damp sponge. Never use sharp objects.

Gas burners

- The gas injector is at the centre of the burner. Ensure that you do not
block it during cleaning, which would affect the performance of your hob.
To clean the burner covers, use soapy water.

- In the case of persistent stains, you can use a small amount of non-
abrasive cream on a sponge, and then rinse with clean water.
Carefully wipe the burner covers before using your hob again. In the
event of the burner vents becoming blocked or the sparkers getting dirty,
clean them using a brush with firm bristles.

Oven door

window

- After a particularly messy cooking session, we recommend that you clean
the inner window with soapy water on a damp sponge.

Cast-iron

hotplate

- The cast-iron hotplate is protected by a black surface coating. Therefore,
avoid using any abrasive products. After use, wipe it clean with an oily

cloth.

Keep it perfectly dry or slightly oiled if it is not used for long periods.
If ever the hotplate starts to rust, remove the rust with emery paper or
similar and re-coat the hotplate with a high temperature renovating

product to be found at your local distributor.

WHAT TO DO

Before cleaning, allow the cooker to cool down and check that all the knobs are in
the OFF position.
As a general rule, abrasive powders and metallic sponges should not be used.

How to look after your cooker?

- Do not use steam cleaners.

- Never splash or spray the cooker with water.

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?

POSSIBLE

CAUSES

IF YOU REALIZE

THAT

You have doubts about whether your cooker is working correctly....

this does not necessarily mean there is a breakdown. Nevertheless, check the
following points :

- This is normal the first time the
cooker heats up.

- Cooking temperature too high.

- Major soiling.

- Household cleaning product on

the walls of the oven.

Your oven produces too
much smoke during co­oking or you notice that
major odours are being
given off.

Condensation on the
windows

- Food is wet or too cold.

➡ When cooking food with a high water
content (e.g. stuffed tomatoes), it is advi­sable to pre-heat the oven to the cooking
temperature; this prevents condensation
forming on the cold glass surfaces.

➡ Use the thermostat to lower the cooking
temperatures; these are given in the co­oking guide for information only.

➡ Proceed to clean your oven by rinsing
the cleaning product with water.

NB: You are reminded not to use the multi­purpose dripping pan as a roasting tin.

Minor troubleshooting

Your new cooker keeps
tripping out the electric system

- Poor connection

- Several electrical appliances are

running at the same time.

➡ Switch off the electricity supply to the other
appliances.

➡ Check the electrical connections.

- Your cooker is connected incorrectly.

-The temperature selector (thermostat)
is in position 0.Autotimer not initialised.

Your oven does not heat

➡

Check your electrical connection (take care not

to screw into the electrical cable sheath).

➡

Set your thermostat to the desired cooking

temperature.

The electronic ignition
of the burners is not
working properly

- The sparkers are dirty.

- Poor use of the system

➡

Check that the sparkers are clean.

➡

Wait for several sparks.

➡

Follow the ignition instructions in the user guide.

➡

Check that the cover is positioned properly on

the burner head.

- Poor connection

- Several electrical appliances are running
at the same time.

➡ Switch off the electricity supply to the other
appliances.
➡ Check the electrical connections.

The flames are too
small on “high flame
position”

- The injector is blocked after cleaning

➡

Clean out the injector using a needle.

The flames are
streaming off the
burners

- The vents on the burner heads are
blocked.

- Poor positioning of the burner cover.

➡

Clean the vents on the burner head.

➡

Check the gas pressure.

➡

Check the position of the burner covers.

➡➡

Check that you have the right injec­tors, check the gas used, the gas connec­tions and the flow adjustment.

The length of the flames
from the lower oven
burner vary during use

- This is due to the regulation of the tem­perature of the oven thermostat

➡

This is normal

The gas flow reduction
is excessive or the
flames go out

- After a change of gas type

➡ after adjusting the taps, when the tap is
switched to reduced flow the flame should
not go out. If this happens you have to uns­crew the brass screw slightly. If it

seems to you that the reduced flow is too large,
you have to srew the brass screw
slightly and take care
that the flame will never go out.
