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:

DIAMETERS OF PANS WHICH MAY

BE USED ON THE HOBS

BURNERS MINIMUM MAXIMUM

Auxiliary 12 cm 14 cm

Semi-rapid 16 cm 24 cm

Rapid 24 cm 26 cm

Wok Max. 36 cm

Do not use pans with concave or
convexe bases

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.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Heating and cooking in the plurifunction
oven are obtained:

a. by natural convection

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

b. by forced convection

The heat produced by the lower and
upper heating elements is distributed in
the oven by the fan. Several dishes can
be cooked at the same time.

c. by radiation and ventilation

The heat irradiated by the infrared grill
resistance is distributed in the oven by
the fan.

d. by radiation

The heat is radiated by the infrared
grill resistance (use with the oven door
closed).

e. 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

The heat is dispersed by natural convection and the temperature must be set to between
50° and 250°C via the thermostat knob.
The oven must be preheated before cooking.

Recommended for:

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

15

CONVECTION COOKING WITH VENTILATION

The upper and lower heating elements come on and the fan. The heat coming from above
and below is diffused by forced convection. The temperature must be set to between 50°
and 250°C via the thermostat knob.

Recommended for:

Voluminous dishes and large quantities which require the same degree of cooking both

inside and out, for example rolled roasts, turkey, roast legs, cakes etc.

DEFROSTING FROZEN FOODS

With the thermostat knob on “ ” only the oven fan is on.
The defrosting is done by simple ventilation without heat.

Recommended for:

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.

VENTILATED GRILL COOKING

The infrared grill and the fan come on.
The heat is diffused mainly by radiation and the fan then distributes it all over the oven.
The oven must be used with the door closed and the temperature can be regulated via
the thermostat knob to between 50° and 200°C maximum.
For cooking hints, see the chapter “GRILLING AND AU GRATIN”.

COOKING ADVICES

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

175 °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 130 °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

temperature between 180 and 200 °C.

• that the cooking time depends on the

quantity and the type of foods.

GRILLING AND “AU GRATIN”

Grilling may be done without the roasting
jack on position

the hot air completely envelops the food
that is to be cooked.
Set the thermostat knob between 50°C and
200°C max and after having pre-heated the
oven, simply place the food on the grill pan.
Adding a few dabs of butter before the end
of the cooking time gives the golden “au
gratin” effect.

17

COOKING DIFFERENT DISHES AT
THE SAME TIME

With the function selector in position
the ventilated oven allows you to cook
different types of food at the same time.
Fish, cakes and meat can be cooked

together without the smells and avours

mixing.
The only precautions required are the
following:

• The cooking temperatures must be

as close as possible with a maximum
difference of 20° - 25°C between the
different foods.

• Different dishes must be placed in

the oven at different times according
to the cooking time required for each
one. This type of cooking obviously
provides a considerable saving on
time and energy.

18

OVEN COOKING

To cook, before introducing the food, preheat
the oven to the desired temperature.
When the oven has reached the desired
temperature, introduce the food, control
the cooking time and tum off the oven
5 minutes before the theoretical time to
recuperate the stored heat.

COOKING EXAMPLES

Temperatures are approximate as they
vary depending on the quality and amount
of food.
Remember to use ovenproof dishes and to
adjust the oven temperature during cooking
if necessary.

CHOOSING SUITABLE SURROUNDINGS

The room where the gas appliance is to be installed must have a natural ow of air so that

the gas can burn (in compliance with applicable local regulations).

The ow of air must come directly from one or more openings made in the outside walls

with a free area of at least 200 cm2 (or refer to applicable local regulations).

The openings should be near the oor and preferably on the side opposite the exhaust for

combustion products and must be made so that they cannot be blocked from either the
inside or the outside.
When these openings cannot be made, the necessary air can come from an adjacent
room which is ventilated as required, as long as it is not a bed room or a danger area (in
compliance with applicable local regulations).
In this case, the kitchen door must allow the passage of the air.

DISCHARGING PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION

Extractor hoods connected directly to the outside must be provided, to allow the products

of combustion of the gas appliance to be discharged (g. 7.3).

If this is not possible, an electric fan may be used, attached to the external wall or the
window; the fan should have a capacity to circulate air at an hourly rate of 3-5 times the

total volume of the kitchen (g. 7.4).

The fan can only be installed if the room has suitable vents to allow air to enter, as described
under the heading “Choosing suitable surroundings”.
