• Turn on the main switch located ahead of the appliance.

• Turn thermostat knob “A” to the required temperature.

• Lighting up of green indicator “C” signals that the power

is on.

• Lighting up of indicator “B” signals that the heating ele-

ments are on. The indicator goes off when the set tem­perature is reached.

Switching off

• Turn the control knobs to “0”.

VII. CLEANING

IMPORTANT!

Before carrying out any cleaning operation, disconnect the
appliance from the power supply.

Do not use ice or water to quickly cool the cooking plate:
do not use ice or water for cleaning when the cooking
plate is hot since, this will permanently deform it and
compromise appliance operation.
Improper cleaning automatically invalidates the warranty.

1. EXTERNAL PARTS

SATIN-FINISH STEEL SURFACES (daily)

• Clean all steel surfaces: dirt can be easily removed as
soon as it forms.

• Remove dirt, fat and food residuals from steel surfaces
when cool, using soapy water, applied with or without
detergent with a cloth or sponge. Dry the surfaces
thoroughly after cleaning.

• With stubborn dirt, fat or food residuals, wipe the cloth/
sponge with the grain of the satin finish and rinse often:
rubbing in a circular motion, combined with the particles
of dirt deposited on the cloth/sponge, could damage the
steel’s satin finish.

• Iron objects could ruin or damage the steel: damaged
surfaces become dirty more easily and are more liable to
corrode.

• Have the satin finish repaired if necessary.

SURFACES BLACKENED BY HEAT (when necessary)
Exposure to high temperatures can cause the formation of
dark marks. These do not constitute damage and can be
removed by following the instructions given in the previous
paragraph.

2. OTHER SURFACES

SURFACES IN SOFT IRON OR CAST IRON (daily)
Remove dirt using a damp cloth or, in the event of stubborn
deposits, the accessories (optional or supplied) specified in
the list. After cleaning, switch the appliance on to dry the
surface quickly, then coat the surface with a thin layer of
cooking oil.

VIII. MAINTENANCE

1. MAINTENANCE

All the components requiring maintenance are accessible
from the front of the appliance, after removing the control
panel and front panel. Disconnect the power supply before
opening the appliance

1.1 BRIEF TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Even with normal appliance use, malfunctions can
occasionally occur.

The pilot burner does not light

Possible causes:

• The igniter is not properly fixed or connected.

• The ignition or igniter cable are damaged.

• Insufficient pressure in gas pipes.

• Blocked nozzle.

• Faulty gas valve.

• Faulty gas cock.

The pilot burner goes out when the igniter knob is released

Possible causes:

• The pilot burner is not heating the thermocouple
sufficiently.

• Faulty thermocouple.

• The gas valve knob is not being pressed enough.

• Lack of gas pressure at the valve.

• Faulty gas valve.

• Faulty gas cock.

The pilot burner is still lit but the main burner does not light

Possible causes:

• Loss of pressure in gas supply pipe.

• Blocked nozzle or faulty gas valve.

• Gas outlet holes on burner clogged.

The fry-top temperature cannot be adjusted.

Possible causes:

• Faulty thermostat bulb.

• Faulty gas valve.

ABNORMAL OPERATION

Any of the following are considered to be abnormal operation

and may require servicing:

• incomplete ignition of the burner;

• yellow tipping of the burner flame;

• burner failing to remain alight;

• gas valves are difficult to turn;

In case the appliance fails to operate correctly, contact the

authorised service provider in your area.

Important: do not use the edge scraper (see figure)

as it will scratch the plate, permanently compromising its
functionality and cleanability. Replace the blade whenever it
is not perfectly sharp.

TANKS AND COLLECTION DRAWERS (even several times a
day)
Remove any grease, oil, food residuals, etc., from trays,
drawers and containers in general used for collection. Always
clean these containers at the end of the day. While using the
appliance, empty them when they are nearly full.

3. PERIODS OF DISUSE

If the equipment is not going to be used for some time, take
the following precautions:

• Close any cocks or main switches installed ahead of the
appliances.

• Rub all stainless-steel surfaces vigorously with a cloth
moistened with vaseline oil in order to form a protective film.

• Periodically air the premises.

• Have the appliance checked before using it again.

• In order to avoid too rapid evaporation of accumulated
moisture and consequent breaking of the element, when
starting up again leave electric appliances on minimum
for at least 45 minutes.

4. INTERNAL PARTS (every 6 months)

IMPORTANT! Operations to be carried out only by
specialised technicians.

• Check the condition of internal components.

• Remove any deposits of dirt inside the appliance.

• Check and clean the discharge system.

NB! In particular ambient conditions (e.g. intensive use of
the appliance, salty environment, etc.) the above cleaning
should be more frequent.
