GAS BURNERS

Each burner is controlled by a gas tap
assuring the opening and the closing of
the gas supply.

Make the lever of the knob match with
the indicator on the control panel to
obtain:

– symbol

● : off

– symbol : full on (nominal rate)

– symbol : reduced rate

To reduce the gas flow to minimum,
rotate the knob anti-clockwise to point
the lever towards the small flame
symbol.

Fig. 3.1

The maximum aperture position permits
rapid boiling of liquids, whereas the
minimum aperture position allows slower
warming of food or maintaining boiling
conditions of liquids (simmering).

Other intermediate operating
adjustments can be achieved by
positioning the lever between the
maximum and minimum aperture
positions, and never between the
maximum aperture and off positions.

LIGHTING THE BURNERS

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

1) Lightly press and turn the knob anti­clockwise, and position the knob
indicator to the symbol printed on the
control panel (fig. 3.2).

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.

Fig. 3.2

CHOICE OF THE BURNER

On the control panel, near every knob,
there is a diagram that indicates which
burner is controlled by that knob.
The suitable burner must be chosen
according to the diameter and the
capacity used.
As an indication, the burners and the
pots must be used in the following way:

It is important that the diameter of the
pot be suitable to the potentiality of the
burner so as not to compromise the high
output of the burners and therefore
energy waste.
A small pot on a large burner does not
give you a boiling point in a shorter
amount of time since the capacity of
heat absorption of a liquid mass
depends on the volume and the surface
of the pot.

GENERAL FEATURES

As its name indicates, this is an oven
that presents particular features from an
operational point of view.

In fact, it is possible to insert 7 different
programs to satisfy every cooking need.
The 7 positions, thermostatically con­trolled, are obtained by 4 heating ele­ments which are:

– Bottom element 1400 W
– Top element 1000 W
– Grill element 2000 W
– Circular element 2500 W

NOTE:

Upon first use, it is advisable to operate the
oven for 30 minutes in the position and
for another 30 minutes at the maximum
temperature (thermostat knob on position

250) in the positions

and

, to elimi­nate possible traces of grease on the heat­ing elements.
Clean the oven and accessories with warm
water and washing-up liquid.

WARNING:
The door is hot, use the handle.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Heating and cooking in the MULTI­FUNCTION 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

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.

c. by semi-forced convection

The heat produced by the upper and
lower heating elements is distributed
throughout the oven by the fan.

d. by radiation

The heat is irradiated by the infra red
grill element.

e. by radiation and ventilation

The irradiated heat from the infra red
grill element is distributed throughout
the oven by the fan.

FUNCTION SELECTOR KNOB

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

OVEN LIGHT

By turning the knob onto this setting we
light the oven cavity (15 W).
The oven remains alight while any of the
functions is on.

THERMOSTAT KNOB

To turn on the heating elements of the
oven, set the switch knob on the desired
program and the thermostat knob onto
the desired temperature.
To set the temperature, it is necessary to
make the knob indicator meet the chosen
number.
The elements will turn ON or OFF auto­matically according to the energy need
which is determined by the thermostat.

TRADITIONAL CONVECTION
COOKING

The upper and lower heating elements
are switched on. The heat is diffused by
natural convection and the temperature
must be regulated between 50° C and
250° C with the thermostat knob.
It is necessary to preheat the oven
before introducing the foods to be
cooked.

RECOMMENDED USE:

For foods which require the same cook­ing temperature both internally and
externally, i. e. roasts, spare ribs,
meringue, etc.

11

GRILLING

The infra-red heating element is switched
on. The heat is diffused 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 correct use see chapter “USE OF THE
GRILL”.

Note: 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.

For correct use see chapter “USE OF
THE GRILL”.

RECOMMENDED USE:

Intense grilling action for cooking with the
broiler; browning, crisping, “au gratin”,
toasting, etc.

DEFROSTING FROZEN FOODS

Only the oven fan is on.
To be used with the thermostat knob on
“●” because the other positions have no
effect. The defrosting is done by simple
ventilation without heat.

RECOMMENDED USE:

To rapidly defrost frozen foods; 1 kilo­gram requires about one hour.
The defrosting times vary according to
the quantity and type of foods to be
defrosted.

HOT AIR COOKING

The circular element and the fan are on.
The heat is diffused by forced convection
and the temperature must be regulated
between 50° and 250 °C with the ther­mostat knob.
It is not necessary to preheat the oven.

RECOMMENDED USE:

For foods that must be well done on the
outside and tender or rare on the inside,
i. e. lasagna, lamb, roast beef, whole
fish, etc.

VENTILATED GRILL COOKING

The infra-red ray grill and the fan are on.
The heat is mainly diffused by radiation
and the fan then distributes it throughout
the oven.
The temperature must be regulated between
50° and 175 °C for max 30 minutes, with
the thermostat knob.
Leave to warm up for approximately 5
minutes with the door closed.

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.

For correct use see chapter “GRILLING
AND “AU GRATIN”.

RECOMMENDED USE:

For grill cooking when a fast outside
browning is necessary to keep the juices
in, i. e. veal steak, steak, hamburger,
etc.

12

COOKING ADVICE

STERILIZATION

Sterilization of foods to be conserved, 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.

REGENERATION

Set the switch to position and the
thermostat 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 tem-

perature between 180 and 200 °C.

– that the cooking time depends on the

quantity and the type of foods.

THAWING AND WARMING UP

The upper element and the circular ele­ment connected in series, are switched
on; also the fan is on.

The heat is diffused by forced convection
with the most part being produced by the
upper element.
The temperature must be regulated
between 50° and 150 °C with the ther­mostat knob.

RECOMMENDED USE:

For defrosting and preparation of pre­cooked meals.

CONVECTION COOKING WITH

VENTILATION

The upper and lower heating elements
and the fan turn on.
The heat coming from the top and bot­tom is diffused by forced convection.
The temperature must be regulated
between 50° and 250 °C with the ther­mostat knob.

RECOMMENDED USE:

For foods of large volume and quantity
which require the same internal and
external degree of cooking; for ex: rolled
roasts, turkey, legs, cakes, etc.

13

GRILLING AND “AU GRATIN”

Set the switch to position .
Set the thermostat to position 175 °C

and after having preheated the oven,
simply place the food on the rack.
Close the door and let the oven operate
with the thermostat on position 50 and
175 °C, until grilling is done.
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.

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

SIMULTANEOUS COOKING OF
DIFFERENT FOODS

The MULTI-FUNCTION oven set on
position and gives a simultane­ous heterogeneous cooking of different
foods.

Different foods such as fish, cake and
meat can be cooked together without
mixing the smells and flavors together.
This is possible since the fats and vapors
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 differ-

ent 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.

USE OF THE GRILL

Preheat the oven for about 5 minutes.
Introduce the food to be cooked, posi-

tioning 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.

Grilling with the oven door closed.
Do not grill for longer than 30 minutes

at any one time.
CAUTION: the oven door becomes

very hot during operation. Keep
children well out of reach.
