How To Use the Hob Burners

Hob burners

Each hob burner is controlled by a sep­arate gas tap operated by a control knob
(fig. 4.3) which has 3 positions marked
on the control panel, these are:

– Symbol ● : tap closed (burner off)
– Symbol : High (maximum)
– Symbol : Low (minimum)

Push in and turn the knob anti-clockwise
to the selected position.

Low High

Lighting of the hob burners

To ignite the burner, the following instructions are to be pursued:

1) Lightly press and turn the knob anti-clockwise, and make the symbol printed on
the knob to mach with the indicator on the control panel (fig. 4.3).

2) Press the knob to operate the electric ignition; or, in case of power cut, approach a
flame to the burner.

3) Adjust the burner according to the power required.

To turn the burner off, fully rotate the knob clockwise to the off position: ●.
The maximum setting of the control tap is for boiling, the minimum setting is for slow
cooking and simmering.
All working positions must be chosen between the maximum and minimum setting, never
between the maximum setting and the “OFF” position.

Fig. 4.3

Electric ignition

The sparks generated by the electrodes close to the burners will ignite the chosen burn­er. Whenever the lighting of the burners will result difficult due to peculiar conditions of
the gas features or supply, it is advised to repeat the ignition with the knob on “minimum”
position.

Choice of burner

Fig. 4.4

The burner must be chosen according to the diameter of the pans and energy required.

Saucepans with handles which are excessively heavy, in relationship to the weight of
the pan, are safer as they are less likely to tip.
Pans which are positioned centrally on burners are more stable than those which are
offset.
It is far safer to position the pan handles in such a way that they cannot be accidentally
knocked.

When deep fat frying fill the pan only one third full of oil.
DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO NOT leave the pan unattended.
In the infortunate event of a fire, leave the pan where it is and turn off all controls.
Place a damp cloth or correct fitting lid over the pan to smother the flames.
DO NOT use water on the fire.
Leave the pan to cool for at least 30 minutes.

6 - How To Use the Gas oven

Attention: the oven door becomes
very hot during operation.
Keep children away.

General features

The oven is furnished completely clean;
it is advisable, however, upon first use,
to turn the oven on to the maximum tem­perature (position ) to eliminate
possible traces of grease from the oven
burner. The same operation should be
followed for grill burner.

The gas oven is provided with two bur­ners:

a) Oven burner, mounted on the lower

part of the oven (wattage: 6,20 kW)

b) Grill burner, mounted on the upper

part of the oven (wattage: 4,65 kW).

Oven burner

It carries out normal “oven cooking”.
The gas flow to the burner is regulated
by a thermostat which allow to maintain
the oven temperature constant.
The control of the temperature is assu­red by a thermostatic probe positioned
inside the oven.
The probe must be always kept in its
housing, in a clean condition, as an
incorrect position or encrustment may
cause an alteration in the control of the
temperature.

Ignition of the oven burner

The thermostat allows the automatic
control of the temperature.
The gas delivery to the oven burner is
controlled by a two way thermostatic tap
(oven and grill burners) with flame­failure device.

To light the oven burner operate as
follow:

1) Open the oven door

WARNING: Risk of explosion! The
oven door must be open during
this operation.

2) Lightly press and turn the thermostat
knob anti-clockwise to max position
“

”

.

3) Press the knob right down to prime
the electric ignition.
In case of power cut, press the knob
and immediately approach a lighted
match to the opening “A” (fig. 6.3).

Never continue this operation for
more than 15 seconds. If the burn­er has still not ignited, wait for
about 1 minute prior to repeating
the ignition.

4) Wait about 10/15 seconds after the
burner lighting before releasing the
knob (time of priming of the valve).

5) Close the oven door slowly and
adjust the burner according to the
power required.

If the flame extinguishes for any reason,
the safety valve will automatically shut
off the gas supply to the burner.
To re-light the burner, first turn the oven
control knob to position ●, wait for at

least 1 minute and then repeat the
lighting procedure.

During use the appliance becomes
hot. Care should be taken to avoid
touching heating elements inside
the oven.

Oven thermostat

The oven thermostat (fig. 6.2) is marked
with numbers, these correspond to the
oven temperature, in addition the “OFF”
position is shown by the symbol “●”.

To choose the required oven tempera­ture (check with the “Oven cooking tem­peratures”), turn the control knob until its
line mark is level with the number
required on the control panel (facia) (fig.

6.1).

24

Oven cooking

For efficient oven preheating, we rec­ommend that grill trays and racks are
removed from the oven and replaced
after about 15 minutes.

Before introducing the food, preheat the
oven to the desired temperature.
For a correct preheating operation, it is
advisable to remove the tray from the
oven and introduce it together with the
food, when the oven has reached the
desired temperature.
Check the cooking time and turn off the
oven 5 minutes before the theoretical
time to recuperate the stored heat.

N.B. For fan ovens reduce the tempera­ture by 10-20°C. For any dish taking one
hour or over to cook, reduce the cooking
time by 10 minutes per hour.

* Shelf positions have been counted

from the top of the oven to the base.
A fan oven creates more even tempera­ture throughout, therefore the shelf posi­tions are not as critical.

General advice

– When the appliance is not being used, it is advisable to keep the gas tap closed.
– Every now and then check to make sure that the flexible tube that connects the gas

line or the gas cylinder to the appliance is in perfect condition and eventually substitute

it if it shows signs of wearing or damage.
– The periodical lubrication of the gas taps must be done only by specialized personnel.
– If a tap becomes stiff, do not force; contact your local Service Centre.

– Important:

Before any operation of cleaning and maintenance disconnect the appliance

from the electrical network.

Attention
The appliance gets very hot, mainly around the cooking areas. It is very
important that children are not left alone in the kitchen when you are cooking.

Do not use a steam cleaner because the moisture can get into the appliance
thus make it unsafe.

7 - Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning

All the enamelled parts must be cleaned with a sponge and soapy water or other non­abrasive products.
Dry preferably with a soft cloth.
Acidic substances like lemon juice, tomato sauce, vinegar etc. can damage the enamel
if left too long.

Stainless steel surfaces

The stainless steel front panels on this cooker (facia, oven door, storage compartment)
are protected by a finger-print proof lacquer.
To avoid damaging this lacquer, do not clean the stainless steel with abrasive cleaners or
abrasive cloths or scouring pads.

ONLY SOAP/WARM WATER MUST BE USED TO CLEAN THE STAINLESS STEEL
SURFACES.

Replacing the oven light bulb

Switch the cooker off at the mains.

When the oven is cool unscrew and replace the bulb with another one resistant to high
temperatures (300°C), voltage 230 V (50 Hz), 15 W, E14.
Note: Oven bulb replacement is not covered by your guarantee.

29

Gas tap

If a tap becomes stiff, do not force; con­tact your local Service Centre.

Flexible tube

From time to time, check the flexible
tube connecting the gas supply to the
cooker.
It must be always in perfect condition;
in case of damage arrange for it to be
replaced by a suitably qualified and

registered person.

Cleaning oven parts after
use

The oven interior and the chromium plat­ed shelves can be cleaned by damp
soapy cloth. Obstinate stains can be
removed with nylon scouring pads and
gentle, non-abrasive, liquid cleaner.
Provided the oven is wiped over imme­diately after roasting, only the minimum
of cleaning should be necessary.

Burners

They can be removed and washed only
with soapy water.
Detergents can be used but must not be
abrasive or corrosive.
Do not use abrasive sponges or pads.
Do not put in dishwasher.
After each cleaning, make sure that the
burner-caps, as well as the burners,
have been well wiped off and COR­RECTLY POSITIONED.

It is essential to check that the burner
flame distributor “F” and the cap “C” has
been correctly positioned (see fig. 7.1) ­failure to do so can cause serious prob­lems.

Check that the electrode “S” (fig. 7.1) is
always clean to ensure trouble-free
sparking.

Note:

The electrode “S” must be very carefully
cleaned.

To avoid damage to the electric ignition
do not use it when the burners are not
in place.
