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” (maximum) from “Low”

(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.

21

CHOICE OF BURNER

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 230 mm 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.

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 radiant heat

The food is grilled by the infra red grill element.

e. by radiant 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.

WARNING:
The door is hot, use the handle.

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

MULTIFUNCTION OVEN

GENERAL FEATURES

With the Multi-Function oven it is possible to cook a variety of food using the 6 different
cooking functions.
These 6 cooking functions are obtained using a combination of the 4 different heating
elements plus a defrost function using the fan only.

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 °C and 200 °C.

■ that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.

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.

28

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.

GRILLING AND COOKING AU GRATIN

As the hot air completely covers the food to be cooked, grilling may be done with
the food on the rack in the oven. The knob should be switched to position .
The thermostat should be set to 50 °C and 200 °C max and the oven pre­heated.
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.

WARNING: Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is used.
Children should be kept away.

29

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

■ Before you begin cleaning, you must ensure that the appliance is

switched off.

■ It is advisable to clean when the appliance is cold and especially when cleaning

the enamelled parts.

■ Avoid leaving alkaline or acidic substances (lemon juice, vinegar, etc.) on the

surfaces.

■ Avoid using cleaning products with a chlorine or acidic base.

■ Do not use a steam cleaner because the moisture can get into the

appliance thus make it unsafe.

WARNING

When correctly installed, your product meets all safety requirements laid down for this
type of product category. However special care should be taken around the rear or
the underneath of the appliance as these areas are not designed or intended to be
touched and may contain sharp or rough edges, that may cause injury.

ENAMELLED PARTS

All the enamelled parts must be cleaned with a sponge and soapy water only or other
non-abrasive products.

Dry preferably with a microfibre or soft cloth.

STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES

The stainless steel front panels on this cooker (facia, oven door, drawer) 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.

INSIDE OF OVEN

■ The oven should always be cleaned after use when it has cooled down.

The cavity should be cleaned using a mild detergent solution and warm water.
Suitable proprietary chemical cleaners may be used after first consulting with the
manufacturers recommendations and testing a small sample of the oven cavity.
Abrasive cleaning agents or scouring pads/cloths should not be used on the cavi­ty surface.

■ NOTE: The manufacturers of this appliance will accept no responsibility for dam-

age caused by chemical or abrasive cleaning.

■ Do not store flammable material in the oven.

ADVICE FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE OF CATALYTIC
PANELS

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.

GAS TAPS

If the gas taps are not working properly, call our Customer Service Centre to obtain the
nearest Authorized Delonghi Service Agent.

GRILL HEATING ELEMENT

■ The heating element is self-cleaning and does not require maintenance. The grill

is secured to the rear wall of the oven on a hinge system that allows it to be
lowered to allow proper access when cleaning the oven ceiling.

36

GREASE FILTER

Clean the filter after any cooking!
The grease filter can be removed for cleaning and should be washed regularly in hot

soapy water (fig. 16 at page 15).
Always dry the filter properly before fitting it back into the oven.
