LIGHTING GAS BURNERS

FITTED WITH SAFETY VALVE DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC IGNITION

■ Check that the electricity is

switched on to allow spark ignition.

■ Make sure that all controls are

turned to zero.

■ The gas flow to the burner is

controlled by taps with safety cutout device. If the burner flame should go out, the safety cut-off valve will automatically stop the gas flow. The switch for the electric ignition is incorporated in the knobs.

■ You control the flow by turning the knob indicator to line up with the following

symbols:

– Symbol ● : tap closed

(burner off)

– Symbol : High (maximum)

– Symbol : Low (minimum)

■ To ignite automatically, push the required knob down and turn it to maximum,

keeping the knob down until the burner lights. When the flame is lit, wait for about ten second with the knob down (safety cut-off activation delay).

■ You can control the temperature by the knob to “High” from “minimum”.

■ To switch off, turn the knob clockwise until you hear the safety click.

■ Note that, if you are using a burner at the minimum setting, you turn the knob

clockwise past the maximum setting before reaching the off position.

■ 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.

■ If when lighting any of the burners an abnormal flame appears, switch the

burner off and relight using the minimum setting.

■ If the flame is still not correct, turn the burner off and call our Customer Service

center for your nearest Authorized Delonghi Service Agent.

■ In the case of a mains failure light the burner with a match or lighted taper.

CHOICE OF BURNER

Burners Pan diameter

Auxiliary 12 - 14 cm Semi-rapid 16 - 24 cm Triple ring 26 - 28 cm Fish-burner from 12x30 to 18x40 cm Wok max 36 cm

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

For optimum efficiency uso a wok or pan no smaller than 230mm diameter.

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.

GENERAL FEATURES

With your new Multi-Function oven it is possible to cook a variety of food using the 7 different cooking functions. These 7 functions are obtained using a combination of the 4 different heating elements plus a defrost function using the fan only.

MULTIFUNCTION MAIN OVEN

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Heating and cooking in the MULTI-FUNCTION oven are obtained in the following ways:

a. by normal convection

The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.

b. by forced convection

The fan draws in air contained within the oven housing at the rear of the oven and forces it over the circular heating element. The hot air envelops the food in the oven givin faster and more even cooking before it is drawn back into the housing to repeat the cycle. It is possible to cook several dishes simultaneously due to the even distribution of heat within the oven.

c. by forced semi-convection

The heat produced by the top and bottom heating elements is distributed throughout the oven by the fan.

d. by radiat heat

The food is grilled by the infra red grill element.

e. by radiat heat and ventilation

The food is grilled by the grill element is distributed throughout the oven

f. by ventilation

The food is defrosted by using the fan only function without heat.

TRADITIONAL BAKE

The upper and lower heating elements come on. The heat being dispersed by natural convection. The temperature range must be set between 50°C and 250°C using the thermostat. The oven must be preheated before cooking.

Ideal for:

Food that requires the same degree of cooking both inside and out, for example roasts, spare pork ribs, meringues etc.

OVEN LIGHT

By setting the knob to this position, only the oven light comes on (15 W). It remains on in all the cooking modes.

FUNCTION SELECTOR KNOB

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

THERMOSTAT KNOB

This only sets the cooking temperature and does not switch the oven on. Rotate clockwise until the required temperature is reached (from 50 to 250°C).

Figure 27

DEFROST

Only the oven fan comes on. Use with the thermostat knob set to “●” - other tempera-

ture have no effect. The food is thawed by ventilation without heating.

Ideal for:

Quick thawing of frozen foods; one kg requires approximately 1 hour. Thawing times vary according to the quantity and type of food to be thawed.

GRILLING

The infrared grill element at the top of the oven comes on. The heat is dispersed by radiation. Use with the oven door closed and the thermostat knob to position 225°C for max 15 minutes, then to position 175°C. For cooking hints, see the chapter “USE OF THE GRILL”.

Ideal for:

Intense grilling, browning, cooking au gratin and toasting etc.

It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time. Attention: the oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.

FAN FORCED

The circular element and fan come on. The heat is dispersed by forced convection and the temperature can be varied to between 50° and 250°C via the thermostat knob. The oven does not require preheating.

Recommended for:

Food which has to be well-cooked outside and soft or rosy inside, for example lasagne, lamb, roast beef, whole fish etc.

FAN GRILL

Both the grill and the fan come on. Most of the cooking is done by grilling and then the hot air circulated around the oven. The oven door should be kept closed

. The temperature can be set between 50°C and 175°C maximum. The oven should be preheated for 5 minutes before cooking. For further cooking hints see “GRILLING AND COOKING AU GRATIN”).

Ideal for:

Quick sealing in of food juices for example such as hamburger, chicken pieces, chops.

It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time. Attention: the oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.

MAINTAINING TEMPERATURE AFTER COOKING OR SLOWLY HEATING FOODS

The upper element, the circular element and the fan come on. The heat is circulated by forced convection with greater intensity in the upper part. The temperature can be set to between 50° and 150°C via the thermostat knob.

Recommended for:

Keeping food warm after any type of cooking. Slow heating of cooked food.

MULTI-FUNCTION

The upper and lower heating elements come on and the fan come on - the heat from the element being circulated by the fan. The temperature range can be set to between 50° and 250°C using the thermostat.

Idea for:

Large bulky quantities of food that require even cooking throughout for example large roasts, turkey, roast turkey, cakes etc.

GRILLING AND “AU GRATIN”

As the hot air completely covers the food to be cooked, grilling may be done with the food on rack in the oven. The knob should be switched to position . The thermostat should be set to 175 °C and the oven pre-heated. The food should be placed on a rack in the oven for the required cooking time. Adding a few dabs of butter before the end of the cooking time gives the golden “au gratin” effect.

It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.

COOKING ADVICE

STERILIZATION

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

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

the door and set the thermostat 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. Check your recycle book for full instructions.

SIMULTANEOUS COOKING OF DIFFERENT FOODS

The oven set on position can cook several different foods together. Foods as diverse as fish and cakes can be cooked together without the cross transference of flavours. This is because the fats and cooking smell that would normally be deposited on the different foods are oxidised and are not absorbed by the foods. The cooking temperature of the foods, however must be within 20°-25°C of each other. The food with the longest cooking time will be put into the oven first and the other foods are added as necessary according to their cooking times.

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.

USE OF THE GRILL

Preheat the oven for about 5 minutes with the door closed. Introduce the food to be cooked, positioning the rack as close to the grill as possible.

The dripping pan should be placed under the rack to catch the cooking juices and fats.

Do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.

GENERAL FEATURES

This is a conventional oven with 4 cooking positions, thermostatically controlled, obtained by 3 heating elements (top, bottom and grill).

This oven is equipped with a special dish rack for use with the special function “Plate Warming”. In this setting you can use your conventional oven to warm the plates (at about 60°C) before serving dinner.

For correct use of this function see the chapters “WARMING PLATES or TRADITIONAL CONVECTION COOKING” and “USE OF SPECIAL DISH RACK”.

CONVENTIONAL OVEN

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Heating and cooking in the CONVENTIONAL oven are obtained in the following ways: a. by normal convection

The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.

b. by radiat heat

The food is grilled by the infra red grill element.

FUNCTION SELECTOR KNOB

It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time. Attention: the oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.

TRADITIONAL BAKE

Ideal for:

Food that requires the same degree of cooking both inside and out, for example roasts, spare pork ribs, meringues etc.

PLATE WARMING OR TRADITIONAL BAKE

The upper and lower heating elements come on. The heat being dispersed by natural convection. The temperature range must be set to position “Plate warming” to obtain the plates heating at about 60°C. This function can also be used for traditional bake (without rotisserie). In this case the thermostat knob must be regulated between 50 and 250°C.

Ideal for:

Dish warming using the special rack. For correct use see the chapter “USE OF SPECIAL DISH RACK”.

COOKING ADVICE

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.

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.

USE OF THE GRILL

Switch the grill on, setting the two knobs: – Function selector to or position. – Thermostat selector to position 225°C for 15 minutes then to 175°C. Leave to warm up for approximately 5 minutes with the door closed.

USE OF SPECIAL DISH RACK

This special shelf can be used as dish rack or turning over, as normal shelf for oven cooking. It must be inserted between the guides of the lateral racks.

USING THE SPECIAL SHELF AS A DISH RACK

Slide in the shelf on the guides, on the lower level of the lateral raks. The prongs where the plates are to be inserted, must be turned upwards. The shelf must be fitted so that the safety catch, which stops it sliding out, faces the bottom of the oven (see detail of figure 30). The plates must be positioned as indicated in figure 30. To facilitate this operation, pull the special rack up to the safety lock.

USING THE SPECIAL RACK FOR NORMAL COOKING

Slide in the shelf on the guides: the safety catch must be turned toward the oven base (see detail of figure 31). The flat surface can be used to put cooking pans or food directly on the rack - the dripping pan should be placed under the rack to catch the cooking juices and fats.

Figure 30 Figure 31

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.

ADVICE FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE OF CATALYTIC PANELS (main oven)

The catalytic panels are covered with special microporous enamel which absorbs and does away with oil and fat splashes during normal baking over 200°C. If, after cooking very fatty foods, the panels remain dirty, operate the oven “idling” on max temperature for about 30 minutes. These panels do not require to be cleaned, however it is advised to periodically remove them from the oven (at least the side panels) and to wash them with tepid soapy water and then wipe off with a soft cloth.

DO NOT CLEAN OR WASH THEM WITH ABRASIVE PRODUCTS OR WITH PRODUCTS CONTAINING ACIDS OR ALKALIS.

The side panels are reversible and when the catalytic microporous enamel degrades, they can be turned to the other side.
