The safety precautions and recommendations reported below are for your own safety and that of others. They will also provide a means by which to make full use of the features offered by your appliance.

Please preserve this booklet carefully. It may be useful in future, either to yourself or to others in the event that doubts should arise relating to its operation.

This appliance must be used only for the task it has explicitly been designed for, that is for cooking foodstuf fs. Any other form of usage is to be considered as inappropriate and therefore dangerous.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event of damage caused by improper, incorrect or illogical use of the appliance.

The Governor of California is required to publish a list of substances known to the state of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposures to such substances. WARNING!: Gas appliances contain or produce substances which can cause death or serious illness and which are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. To reduce the risk from substances in fuel or from fuel combustion, make sure this appliance is installed, operated, and maintained according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

This appliance is designed and manufactured solely for the cooking of domestic (household) food and is not suitable for any non-domestic application and therefore should not be used in a commercial environment. The appliance warranty will be void if the appliance is used within a non-domestic environment i.e. a semi commercial, commercial or communal environment.

LIGHTING GAS BURNERS FITTED WITH FLAME FAILURE SAFETY DEVICE (Triple-ring and Semi-rapid burners)

In order to light the burner, you must:

1. Push and turn the dial in an counter-clockwise direction to the mum rate), push in and hold the dial until the ﬂ ame has been lit (ﬁ g. 2.2).

CHOICE OF BURNER (ﬁ g. 2.5)

The symbols or wordings printed on the panel above the gas dials indicate the correspondence between the dial and the burner. The most suitable burner is to be chosen according to the diameter and volume capacity of the container to be warmed. It is important that the diameter of the pots or pans suitably match the heating potential of the burners in order not to jeopardise the efﬁ ciency of the burners, bringing about a waste of gas fuel. A small diameter pot or pan placed on a large burner does not necessarily mean that boiling conditions are reached quicker.

DIAMETERS OF PANS WHICH MAY BE USED ON THE HOB BURNERS

BURNER MINIMUM MAX.

Semi-rapid 16 cm (6” 19/64) 24 cm (9” 7/16)

Triple-ring and Dual 26 cm (10” 3/16) 28 cm (11” 1/16)

Wok pans min 36 cm (14” 3/16) - max 40 cm (15” 3/4)

Do not use pans with concave or convex bases

WRONG

Fig. 2.6b

CORRECT USE OF DUAL BURNER (Fig. 2.6a - 2.6b)

The ﬂ at-bottomed pans are to be placed directly onto the pan-support. When using a WOK you need to place the supplied wok support on the pan support for the burner to avoid any faulty operation of the Dual burner (Figs. 2.6a - 2.6b).

IMPORTANT:

The special support for wok pans (ﬁ gs. 2.6b, 2.6c) MUST BE PLACED ONLY over the pan-rest for the Dual burner.

CORRECT

Ensure that the handles of cookware do not stick out over the edge of the range, to avoid them being knocked over by accident. This also makes it more difficult for children to reach the cooking vessels.

how to use the gas oven

GENERAL FEATURES

The gas oven is provided with:

■ Oven burner, mounted on the lower part of the oven (14000 BTU/hr).

■ Broil burner, mounted on the upper part of the oven (11000 BTU/hr).

■ Fan motor which can be used in combination with the oven burner.

It is not possible to use the fan motor in combination with the broil burner: a

safety device switches off the fan motor when the gas oven/broil control knob is turned on broil position.

■ Light to illuminate the oven to enable visual checking of the food that is cooking.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Heating and cooking are obtained in the following ways: a. by normal convection

The heat is produced by the oven burner. b. by forced convection

The heat produced by the oven burner is distributed throughout the oven by the fan.

The hot air envelops the food in the oven, provoking a complete and rapid cooking. It is possible to cook several dishes simultaneously.

c. by radiation Radiant heat is delivered by the infra red broil burner.

USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME

It is advised to follow these instructions:

■ Furnish the interior of the oven as described at chapter “Cleaning and maintenance”.

■ Turn the oven on to the maximum temperature “8” to eliminate possible traces of

grease from the oven burner.

The same operation should be followed for broil burner (knob set to “BROIL” position).

■ Switch off the electrical supply, let the oven cool down, then clean the interior of the oven with cloth soaked in water and detergent (neutral) then dry carefully.

Attention: The range becomes very hot during operation.

Attention: The oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.

WARNING: The door is hot, use the handle.

NOTE: When the range is not being used, set the gas knobs to their OFF positions. If the range will not be used for an extended period of time, it is recommended that the gas shut off valve in the main supply line be closed.

VERY IMPORTANT When using the oven in BROIL mode, the oven door must remain closed.

OVEN BURNER

It carries out normal “oven cooking”. The gas flow to the burner is regulated by a thermostat which allow to maintain the oven temperature constant. The control of the temperature is assured by a thermostatic probe positioned inside the oven. The probe must be always kept in its housing, in a clean condition, as an incorrect position or encrustment may cause an alteration in the control of the temperature.

IGNITION OF THE OVEN BURNER

Important!

■ During ignition of the oven burner, the fan motor shall be switched off (light and fan control knob in “OFF” position – Fig. 3.2).

■ Do not attempt to light the oven burner during power failure.

The thermostat allows the automatic control of the temperature. The gas delivery to the oven burner is controlled by a two way thermostatic tap (oven and broil burners) with ﬂ ame-failure device.

To light the oven burner:

1. Open the oven door to its full extent. WARNING: Risk of explosion! The oven door must be open during this ope-

ration.

2. Press the oven control knob right down (the igniters will start ‘clicking’), turn the knob

counter-clockwise (ﬁ g. 3.3) to max position “8”.

3. Check the oven burner has lit; if not, turn the knob clockwise back to “OFF” and

repeat the procedure from step 2.

4. Once the oven burner has lit, close the oven door slowly and adjust the burner according to the power required.

If the ﬂ ame extinguishes for any reason, the safety valve will automatically shut off the gas supply to the burner. To re-light the burner, ﬁ rst turn the oven control knob to position “OFF”, wait for at least

1 minute and then repeat the lighting procedure.

Fig. 3.3

VERY IMPORTANT! The burner ignition procedure must always start with the control knob in the

OFF position or it will not be possible to ignite the burner.

Attention: The oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.

TRADITIONAL BAKING (OVEN BURNER WITHOUT F AN MOTOR)

Before introducing the food, preheat the oven to the desired temperature. Use the table below as a guide for preheat times for a selection of knob settings.

Recommended for:

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

It is possible to cook various different foods at the same time. Fish, cakes and meat can be cooked together without the smells and ﬂ avours mixing. The only precautions required are the following:

■ The cooking temperatures must be as close as possible with a maximum difference of 70-80 °F (20-25 °C) between the different foods.

■ Different dishes must be placed in the oven at different times according to the coo- king time required for each one. This type of cooking obviously provides a considerable saving on time and energy.

Recommended for:

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