How to use the hob burners

Lighting of the hob burners

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

1) Lightly press and turn the knob anti-clockwise, and position the knob indicator to the
symbol printed on the control panel (fig. 4).

2) Press the knob to operate the electric ignition; or, in the case of a mains failure light
the burner with a match or lighted taper.

3) Adjust the burner according to the setting required.

Electric ignition

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

Hob burners

Each hob burner is controlled by a sep­arate gas valve operated by a control
knob (fig. 4) 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.

To turn the burner off, fully rotate the knob clockwise to the OFF position:
The maximum setting of the gas valves is for boiling, the minimum setting is for slow

cooking and simmering.
All working positions must be choosen between the maximum and minimum setting,

never between the maximum setting and the OFF position.

Fig. 5

Choice of burner

The burner must be choosen 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 unfortunate 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.

Burners Pan diameter

Auxiliary 12 ÷ 14 cm
Semi-rapid 16 ÷ 24 cm
Rapid 24 ÷ 26 cm
Triple-ring 26 ÷ 28 cm
Wok max 36 cm

do not use pans with concave or convex bases

12

Correct use of triple-ring burner

The flat-bottomed pans are to be placed directly onto the pan-support.
To use the WOK you need to place the proper stand in order to avoid any faulty

operation of the triple-ring burner (Figs. 6 - 7).
IMPORTANT: The wok pan stand (fig. 7) MUST BE PLACED ONLY over the pan-rest

for the triple-ring burner.

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

IMPORTANT

To open the bottom door operate as
indicated in fig. 8.

WARNING:
The door is hot, use the handle.

ATTENTION - MOST IMPORTANT
Pay special attention not to touch
the hot heating element inside the
oven cavity.

General features

Fan cooking is more economical and
quicker than cooking in a conventional
oven.
The moving hot air surrounds the food
and penetrates it more quickly than in a
conventional oven.

The oven is equipped with a circular
element (2200 W) and a fan.

Operating principles

Heating and cooking in this oven are
obtained by forced convection.

A fan sucks in the air contained in the
oven muffle, which sends it through the
circular heating element and then sends
it back through the muffle. Before the
hot air is sucked back again by the fan
to repeat the described cycle, it
envelops the food in the oven, provok­ing a complete and rapid cooking.
It is possible to cook several dishes
simultaneously.

Note:

Upon first use, it is advisable to operate
the oven at the maximum temperature
(thermostat knob on position 250) for
60 minutes to eliminate any traces of
grease from the electrical resistance.

How to use the Fan Oven (bottom main oven)

14

Switch and the temperature selector (fig. 9)

Rotate the knob clockwise to set the oven for one of the following functions:

Off as per fig. 9

Only the oven fan is on.
The fan operates without the heating element, this function can be used for
defrosting.

The oven light is switched on.
The oven temperature can be set between 50°C - 250°C.
The set temperature has been reached when the temperature indicator light
goes off.
Several different meals may be cooked simultaneously on various shelves, as
the heated air circulates evenly throughout the oven.
The hot air system cooks more quickly than conventional static system, there­fore the temperature should be set 15°C - 20°C below the values recom­mended in your recipe books.

Cooking advice

Sterilization

Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in the
following way:

a. Set the selector knob to position 185 °C and preheat the oven.
b. Fill the dripping pan with hot water.
c. Set the jars onto the dripping pan making sure they do not touch each other and

the door and set the knob to position 135 °C.
When sterilization has begun, that is, when the contents of the jars start to bubble,
turn off the oven and let cool.

Regeneration

Set the selector knob to position 150° C.
Bread becomes fragrant again if wet with a few drops of water and put into the oven
for about 10 minutes at the highest temperature.

Roasting

To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary to remember:
– that it is advisable to maintain a temperature between 180° and 200 °C.
– that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.

Oven cooking

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.

Simultaneous cooking of different foods

The fan consents a simultaneous heterogeneous cooking of different foods. Different
foods such as fish, cake and meat can be cooked together without mixing the smells
and flavours together. This is possible since the fats and vapours are oxidized while
passing through the electrical element and therefore are not deposited onto the foods.

The only precaution to follow are:
– The cooking temperatures of the different foods must be as close to as possible, with

a maximum difference of 20° - 25 °C.

– The introduction of the different dishes in the oven must be done at different times in

relation to the cooking times of each one.

The time and energy saved with this type of cooking is obvious.
