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) 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.
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.
Low High
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 choosen between the maximum and minimum setting, never
between the maximum setting and the “OFF” position.
Fig. 4
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.

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
do not use pans with concave or convexe bases

How to use the gas oven
Fig. 6
Lighting the oven burner
The thermostat allows the automatic control of the temperature.
The gas delivered to the oven burner is controlled by a two way thermostatic tap (oven and
grill burners) with flame-failure device.
To light the oven burner follow the instructions carefully:
1) Open the oven door
2) Lightly press and turn the thermostat knob anti-clockwise to max position (★ fig. 6).
3) Press the knob firmly until the burner lights.
WARNING: Risk of explosion!
The oven door must be open during this operation.
In case of mains failure, press the knob firmly and immediately approach a lighted match or
taper to the opening “A” (fig. 7).
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 is lit before releasing the knob (to allow the flame
failure device to energise).
5) Close the oven door slowly and adjust the burner according to the power required.
Should the flame of the burner estinguish for any reason, the safety valve will cut off
automatically the gas flow to the tap. To re-start operation, take the knob to “off”
position, wait for at least 1 minute and repeat operations as above explained.
Oven thermostat
The oven thermostat (fig. 6) 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 temperature required on the control
panel (facia).
