PRESENTATION

Our cooker is fi tted with a fully gas hotplate.
This innovative burner hotplate offers you more scope
and versatility in hotplate cooking than ever before.
The round burners are graduated in their size and
output to provide the exact heat required for every
style of cooking. For example, the large or wok burner
will give you the intense heat required for wok cookery,
while the small simmer burner will handle the smallest
of saucepans with ease and safety. The low heat
(simmer) setting is extraordinarily low, so you can
cook the most delicate sauces to perfection.
This innovative, yet very practical combination of
burners allows you to cook an entire meal on the
hotplate at once and is of special assistance when
entertaining.
Each knob on the front panel has a diagram printed
above it showing to which burner it refers.

Our cookers is fi tted with a fully gas oven (gas and
grill burner).

The oven walls are fi tted with various runners (fi g. 1)
on which the following accessories can be placed.

Supply and quantities vary from model to model
(see fi g. 2):

• oven shelf rack (Gf). Ensure shelf is located with
dish and tray stop pointing upwards.

• drip tray (V)

• grill rack (Gv)

• handle (D)

The cookers are fi tted with a small compartment
under the oven that can be used for storing things.

Remember that the surfaces become hot, it is
strictly forbidden to place infl ammable materials
inside.

The door opens by pushing the centre (see fi g. 3).

HOB: GENERAL NOTES ON SAFETY

• When using the burners, do not leave the appliance
unsupervised. Ensure that children do not play with
the appliance. In particular, make sure that pan
handles are positioned correctly and supervise the
cooking of foods which use oils and fats, as these
are highly infl ammable.

• Do not use aerosols or sprays near the appliance
when it is in use.

• Even after use, the burners remain hot for a long
period; to avoid burning, do not place hands or
other objects on them.

• If the appliance is fi tted with a lid, remove any food
residues on the surface before opening.

• If the appliance is fi tted with a crystal glass lid, this
can shatter when heated. Turn off all the burners
and to attend that is cooled, before closing the lid
(fi g. 4).

• The glass lid is not to be used as a cooking surface,
ensure that it is fully raised when the cooktop is in
operation.

• After using the appliance, ensure that all the controls
are in the closed or off position.

AUTOMATIC ELECTRIC IGNITION OF COOKTOP
BURNERS

Push lightly the knob (ref. A) corresponding to the
burner you wish to use and turn anti clockwise to
the “Full on“ position, t

hen depress the control knob.

Automatically the ignition spark shoots.

MANUAL IGNITION OF COOKTOP BURNERS

Manual ignition may be necessary in the event of
power failure or component malfunction. Place a lit
match close to the selected burner, and repeat the
above steps.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER

OPTIMUM USE OF COOKTOP BURNERS

In order to achieve maximum effi ciency with minimum
gas consumption it is useful to remember:

• Do not use large burners with pans of small diameter
in order to avoid fl ames spreading wider than pans
(consult the following table) and always use pans
with lids (see fi g. 5).

• When the boiling point is reached, it is best to turn
the knob to the “Low position”.

• Avoid using over sized pans that may radiate
excessive heat and cause damage to surrounding
surfaces such as bench tops and glass lid.

• The appliance can be equipped with a particular
central or left hand side pan support (1) on which
must be put the wok support (2). To ensure stability,
position the notch (A) of wok support on the pan
support fi ngers as indicated in fi g. 6.

• Do not place anything, e.g. fl ame tamer, asbestos
mat, between pan and pan support, as serious
damage to the appliance may result (fi g. 7).

• Locate pan centrally over the burner so that is stable
and does not overhang the appliance (fi g. 8).

• If gas burns with a yellow fl ame, do not continue to
use burner and arrange for service.

• Do not use burners without the proper pan support or
wok stand, as this will concentrate and defl ect the heat
onto the hotplate (fi g. 9) and surrounding surfaces.

• Use only a wok support supplied or recommended
by the manufacturer of the appliance (fi g. 10).

ABNORMAL OPERATION

Any of the following are considered to be abnormal
operation and may require servicing:

• Yellow tipping of the hob burner fl ame.

• Sooting up of cooking utensils.

• Burners not igniting properly.

• Burners failing to remain alight.

• Burners extinguished by the oven door.

• Gas valves, which are diffi cult to turn.

In case the appliance fails to operate correctly , contact
our Service Centre.

Warning: Servicing should be carried out only
by authorised personnel.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER

OVEN: GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Do not leave the oven unsupervised during use. Ensure that children and the infi rm do not play with the
appliance.

• Always keep the appliance lid open when using the ovenor grill burner, in order to prevent overheating.

• Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of this appliance while it is operating.

• Where this appliance is installed in marine craft or in caravans, it shall not be USED AS A SPACE HEATER.

• Always grip the centre of the oven door when opening. Do not practice excessive pressures on the door when
it is open.

• Do not store or use fl ammable liquids or items in the vicinity of this appliance.

• Do not worry if condensation forms on the door and on the internal walls of the oven during cooking. This does
not compromise its effi ciency.

• When opening the oven door, be very careful of scalding vapours.

• During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements inside the
oven. Wear oven gloves when placing or removing pans from the oven or use the handle (D) (fi g. 2) provided.
Hook the handle to the edge of the tray and pull it out, slightly lifting it as you do so.

• When inserting or removing food from the oven, check that excess juices do not overfl ow onto the oven base
(oils and fats are highly infl ammable when overheated).

• Use containers that will resist the temperatures indicated on the thermostat knob.

• Never cover the base of the oven or the oven shelf with aluminium foil or other materials, as this creates a fi re
hazard.

• When grilling always put a little water in the grill pan. The water prevents the grease from burning and from
giving off bad smells and smoke. Add more water during grilling to compensate for evaporation.

• After using the appliance ensure that all the controls are in the off position.

• WARNING - During and after use, the oven door glass and the accessible parts will become hot when
in use. To avoid burns and scalds children should be kept away.

IMPORTANT!!
Always keep the oven door closed during baking. It must only be left partially opened when using the
gas grill burner (see relative instructions).

WHAT TO DO THE FIRST TIME YOU USE THE OVEN

• Remove all protective wrapping materials from the appliance and labels from the oven door.

• Remove combustible materials from the warming compartment before commissioning the cooker.

• Before cooking for the fi rst time, heat the oven at maximum temperature for 2 hours. This will allow the
protective coating on the interior of the oven to be burnt off and expel the associated smells. Ensure adequate
ventilation in the kitchen whilst burning off and don't be alarmed by a little bit of smoke during this process.
At the end of this time period, allow the appliance to cool down and then clean the interior using hot water and
a delicate detergent. Also wash all the accessories (grills, trays, spit roast, etc.) before use.

Prior to any cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the electricity mains.
