Installation

! Before operating your new appliance please read GB this instruction booklet carefully. It contains important information concerning the safe installation and operation

of the appliance.

!Please keep these operating instructions for future reference. Make sure that the instructions are kept with the appliance if it is sold, given away or moved.

!The appliance must be installed by a qualified professional according to the instructions provided.

!Any necessary adjustment or maintenance must be performed after the cooker has been disconnected from the electricity supply.

Room ventilation

The appliance may only be installed in permanentlyventilated rooms, in accordance with current national legislation. The room in which the appliance is installed must be ventilated adequately so as to provide as much air as is needed by the normal gas combustion process (the flow of air must not be lower than 2 m3/h per kW of installed power).

The air inlets, protected by grilles, should have a duct with an inner cross section of at least 100 cm2 and should be positioned so that they are not liable to even partial obstruction (see figure A).

These inlets should be enlarged by 100% - with a minimum of 200 cm2 - whenever the surface of the hob is not equipped with a flame failure safety device. When the flow of air is provided in an indirect manner from adjacent rooms (see figure B), provided that these are not communal parts of a building, areas with increased fire hazards or bedrooms, the inlets should be fitted with a ventilation duct leading outside as described above.

! The liquefied petroleum gases are heavier than air and collect by the floor, therefore all rooms containing LPG cylinders must have openings leading outside so that any leaked gas can escape easily.

LPG cylinders, therefore, whether partially or completely full, must not be installed or stored in rooms or storage areas that are below ground level (cellars, etc.). Only the cylinder being used should be stored in the room; this should also be kept well away from sources of heat (ovens, chimneys, stoves) that may cause the temperature of the cylinder to rise above 50°C.

Positioning and levelling

!It is possible to install the appliance alongside cupboards whose height does not exceed that of the hob surface.

!Make sure that the wall in contact with the back of the appliance is made from a non-flammable, heat-resistant material (T 90°C).

To install the appliance correctly:

Place it in the kitchen, the dining room or the bed-sit (not in the bathroom).

If the top of the hob is higher than the cupboards, the appliance must be installed at least 600 mm away from them.

If the cooker is installed underneath a wall cabinet,

there must be a minimum distance of 420 mm between this cabinet and the top of the hob.

This distance should be increased to 700 mm if the wall cabinets are flammable (see figure).

Do not position blinds behind the cooker or less than 200 mm away from its sides.

Any hoods must be installed according to the instructions listed in the relevant operating manual.

Levelling

If it is necessary to level the appliance, screw the adjustable feet into the places provided on each corner of the base of the cooker (see figure).

The legs* fit into the slots on the underside of the base of the cooker.

Electrical connection

Install a standardised plug corresponding to the load indicated on the appliance data plate (see Technical data

table).

The appliance must be directly connected to the mains using an omnipolar circuit-breaker with a minimum contact opening of 3 mm installed between the appliance and the mains. The circuit-breaker must be suitable for the charge indicated and must comply with current electrical regulations (the earthing wire must not be interrupted by the circuit-breaker). The supply cable must be positioned so that it does not come into contact with temperatures higher than 50°C at any point.

Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, make sure that:

The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with the law.

The socket can withstand the maximum power of the appliance, which is indicated by the data plate.

The voltage is in the range between the values indicated on the data plate.

The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an authorised technician to replace it. Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

! Once the appliance has been installed, the power

supply cable and the electrical socket must be easily

 

 

accessible.

 

!The cable must not be bent or compressed.

!The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by authorised technicians only.

!The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety measures not be observed.

Gas connection

Connection to the gas network or to the gas cylinder may be carried out using a flexible rubber or steel hose, in accordance with current national legislation and after making sure that the appliance is suited to the type of gas with which it will be supplied (see the rating sticker on the cover: if this is not the case see below). When using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a pressure regulator which complies with current national regulations. To make connection easier, the gas supply may be turned sideways*: reverse the position of the hose holder with that of the cap and replace the gasket that is supplied with the appliance.

! Check that the pressure of the gas supply is consistent with the values indicated in the Table of burner and nozzle specifications (see below). This will ensure the safe operation and durability of your appliance while maintaining efficient energy consumption.

Gas connection using a flexible rubber hose

Make sure that the hose complies with current national legislation. The internal diameter of the hose must measure: 8 mm for liquid gas supply; 13 mm for methane gas supply.

Once the connection has been performed, make sure that the hose:

Does not come into contact with any parts that reach temperatures of over 50°C.

Is not subject to any pulling or twisting forces and that it is not kinked or bent.

Does not come into contact with blades, sharp corners or moving parts and that it is not compressed.

Is easy to inspect along its whole length so that its condition may be checked.

Is shorter than 1500 mm.

Fits firmly into place at both ends, where it will be fixed using clamps that comply with current regulations.

*Available only on certain models

5

GB

! If one or more of these conditions is not fulfilled or if the cooker must be installed according to the conditions listed for class 2 - subclass 1 appliances (installed between two cupboards), the flexible steel hose must be used instead (see below).

Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel pipe to

a threaded attachment

Make sure that the hose and gaskets comply with current national legislation.

To begin using the hose, remove the hose holder on the appliance (the gas supply inlet on the appliance is a cylindrical threaded 1/2 gas male attachment).

! Perform the connection in such a way that the hose length does not exceed a maximum of 2 metres, making sure that the hose is not compressed and does not come into contact with moving parts.

Checking the tightness of the connection

When the installation process is complete, check the hose fittings for leaks using a soapy solution. Never use a flame.

Adapting to different types of gas

It is possible to adapt the appliance to a type of gas other than the default type (this is indicated on the rating label on the cover).

Adapting the hob

Replacing the nozzles for the hob burners:

1.Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off their seats.

2.Unscrew the nozzles using a 7 mm socket spanner (see figure), and replace them with nozzles suited to the new type of gas (see Burner and nozzle specifications table).

3.Replace all the components by following the above instructions in reverse.

Adjusting the hob burners’ minimum setting:

1.Turn the tap to the minimum position.

2.Remove the knob and adjust the regulatory screw,

which is positioned inside or next to the tap pin, until the flame is small but steady.

! If the appliance is connected to a liquid gas supply, the regulatory screw must be fastened as tightly as possible:

3. While the burner is alight,

quickly change the position of the knob from minimum to maximum and vice versa several times, checking that the flame is not extinguished.

!The hob burners do not require primary air adjustment.

!After adjusting the appliance so it may be used with a different type of gas, replace the old rating label with a new one that corresponds to the new type of gas (these labels are available from Authorised Technical Assistance

Centres).

! Should the gas pressure used be different (or vary slightly) from the recommended pressure, a suitable pressure regulator must be fitted to the inlet hose in accordance with current national regulations relating

Replacing the Triple ring burner nozzles

1.Remove the pan supports and lift the burners out of their housing. The burner consists of two separate parts (see pictures).

2.Unscrew the nozzles using a 7 mm socket spanner. Replace the nozzles with models that are configured for use with the new type of gas (see Table 1). The two nozzles have the same hole diameter.

3.Replace all the components by completing the above operations in reverse order.

• Adjusting the burners’ primary air :

Does not require adjusting.

• Setting the burners to minimum:

1.Turn the tap to the low flame position.

2.Remove the knob and adjust the adjustment screw, which is positioned in or next to the tap pin, until the flame is small but steady.

3.Having adjusted the flame to the required low setting, while the burner is alight, quickly change the position of the knob from minimum to maximum and vice versa several times, checking that the flame does not go out

4.Some appliances have a safety device (thermocouple) fitted. If the device fails to work when the burners are set to the low flame setting, increase this low flame setting using the adjusting screw.

Safety Chain

! In order to prevent accidental tipping of the appliance, for example by a child climbing onto the oven door, the supplied safety chain MUST be installed!

The cooker is fitted with a safety chain to be fixed by means of a screw (not supplied with the cooker) to the wall behind the appliance, at the same height as the chain is attached to the appliance.

Choose the screw and the screw anchor according to the type of material of the wall behind the appliance. If the head of the screw has a diameter smaller than 9mm, a washer should be used. Concrete wall requires the screw of at least 8mm of diameter, and 60mm of length. Ensure that the chain is fixed to the rear wall of the cooker and to the wall, as shown in figure, so that after installation it is tensioned and parallel to the ground level.

Start-up and use

Using the hob

GB

Lighting the burners

For each BURNER knob there is a complete ring showing the strength of the flame for the relevant burner.

To light one of the burners on the hob:

1.Bring a flame or gas lighter close to the burner.

2.Press the BURNER knob and turn it in an anticlockwise direction so that it is pointing to the maximum flame setting .

3.Adjust the intensity of the flame to the desired level by turning the BURNER knob in an anticlockwise direction. This may be the minimum setting , the maximum setting or any position in between the two.

If the appliance is fitted with an electronic lighting device* (see figure), press the ignition button,

marked with the symbol , then

hold the BURNER knob down and turn it in an anticlockwise direction, towards the maximum flame setting, until the burner

is lit.The burner may be extinguished when the knob is released. If this occurs, repeat the operation, holding the knob down for a longer period of time.

! If the flame is accidentally extinguished, switch off the burner and wait for at least 1 minute before attempting to relight it.

If the appliance is equipped with a flame failure safety device*, press and hold the BURNER knob for approximately 2-3 seconds to keep the flame alight and to activate the device.

To switch the burner off, turn the knob until it reaches the stop position •.

Flame adjustment according to levels

the burner flame intensity can be adjusted with the knob according to 6 power levels, from maximum to minimum with 4 intermediate positions:

a click will indicate the change from one level to another when turning the knob. The system guarantees a more precise adjustment, allows to replicate the flame intensity and to identify easily the preferred level for different cooking operations.

WARNING! The glass lid can break in if it is heated up. Turn off all the burners and the electric plates before closing the lid.

Practical advice on using the burners

For the burners to work in the most efficient

way possible and to save on the amount of gas consumed, it is recommended that only pans that have a lid and a flat base are used. They should also be suited to the size of the burner:

To identify the type of burner, please refer to the diagrams contained in the “Burner and nozzle specifications”.

! For models equipped with a reducer grid, the latter must be used only for the auxiliary burner, when pans with a diameter of less than 12 cm are used.

Using the oven

!The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the room is well ventilated before switching the oven off and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective substances used during the manufacturing process burning away.

!Before operating the product, remove all plastic film from the sides of the appliance.

!Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being damaged.

1.Select the desired cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob.

2.Select the recommended temperature for the cooking mode or the desired temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob.

A list detailing cooking modes and suggested cooking temperatures can be found in the relevant table (see Oven

cooking advice table).

During cooking it is always possible to:

Change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob.

Change the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob.

Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the “0” position.

* Only available in certain models.

8

! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

THERMOSTAT indicator light

When this is illuminated, the oven is generating heat. It switches off when the inside of the oven reaches the selected temperature. At this point the light illuminates and switches off alternately, indicating that the thermostat is working and is maintaining the temperature at a constant level.

Oven light

This is switched on by turning the SELECTOR knob to any position other than “0”. It remains lit as long as the oven is operating. By selecting with the knob, the light is switched on without any of the heating elements being activated.

Cooking modes

! A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes between 60°C and Max, except for the following modes

GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power level)

GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).

TRADITIONAL OVEN mode

Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on. When using this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only. If more than one rack is used, the heat will be distributed in an uneven manner.

BAKING mode

The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate and uniform manner throughout the entire oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes that need to rise) and for the preparation of pastries on 3 shelves simultaneously.

FAST COOKING mode

The heating elements and the fan come on, guaranteeing the distribution of heat consistently and uniformly throughout the oven.

Preheating is not necessary for this cooking mode. This mode is particularly suitable for cooking pre-packed food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The best results are achieved using one cooking rack only.

MULTI-COOKING mode

All the heating elements (top, bottom and circular) switch on and the fan begins to operate. Since the heat remains

constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns

food in a uniform manner. A maximum of two racks may GB be used at the same time.

PIZZA mode

The circular heating elements and the elements at the bottom of the oven are switched on and the fan is activated. This combination heats the oven rapidly by producing a considerable amount of heat, particularly from the element at the bottom. If you use more than one rack at a time, switch the position of the dishes halfway through the cooking process.

GRILL mode

The central part of the top heating element is switched on. The high and direct temperature of the grill is recommended for food that requires a high surface temperature (veal and beef steaks, fillet steak and entrecôte). This cooking mode uses a limited amount of energy and is ideal for grilling small dishes. Place the food in the centre of the rack, as it will not be cooked properly if it is placed in the corners.

GRATIN mode

The top heating element and the rotisserie (where present) are activated and the fan begins to operate. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation provided by the heating elements through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from burning on the surface and allows the heat to penetrate right into the food.

! The GRILL and GRATIN cooking modes must be performed with the oven door shut.

DEFROSTING mode

The fan located on the bottom of the oven makes the air circulate at room temperature around the food. This is recommended for the defrosting of all types of food, but in particular for delicate types of food which do not require heat, such as for example: ice cream cakes, cream or custard desserts, fruit cakes. By using the fan, the defrosting time is approximately halved. In the case of meat, fish and bread, it is possible to accelerate the process using the “multi-cooking” mode and setting the temperature to 80° - 100°C.
