The appliance should be connected to a gas cylinder in
compliance with current directives. On some models the
gas supply can be connected on the left or on the right, as
necessary; to change the connection, reverse the position
of the hose holder with that of the cap and replace replace
the gasket (supplied with the appliance). Remember to
install a pressure regulator on the LPG cylinder, which
complies with current directive.
Important: check that the supply pressure complies with
the values indicated in table 1 “Characteristics of the
burners and nozzles” since this will ensure safe oper ation,
correct consumption and ensure a longer life to your
appliance.

Connection with hose

Make the connection using a gas hose complying with
the the characteristics provided in current directive. The
internal diameter of the pipe used is as follows:

- 8mm for liquid gas;
When installing the hose, remember to take the following
precautions:
Check that the hose fits firmly into place at the two ends
and fix it with clamps complying to current directive.If any
of the above recommendations can not be adopted, flexib le
metal pipes should be used.

Installation of the cooker

The appliance can be installed next to furniture units which
are no taller than the top of the cooker hob. The wall in
direct contact with the back panel of the cooker must be
made of non-flammable material. During operation the
back panel of the cooker could reach a temperature of
50°C above room temperature. For proper installation of
the cooker, the following precautions must be taken:

• The appliance can be placed in a kitchen, dining room
or bedsit, but not in a bathroom.

• All furniture around the appliance must be placed at
least 200 mm from the top of the cooker, should the

The different functions and uses of the oven

The various functions included in the cooker are selected by
operating the control devices located on the cooker control
panel.

Control Knobs for the Gas Burners on the Hob (N)
The position of the gas burner controlled by each one of the

knobs is shown by a symbol of a solid ring:•. To light one of

the burners, hold a lighted match or lighter near the burner.
Press down and turn the corresponding knob in the counter­clockwise direction to the maximum E setting. Each b urner
can be operated at its maximum, minimum or intermediate

power . Shown on the knob are the diff erent symbols for off •

(the knob is on this setting when the symbol lines up with the
reference mark on the control panel), for maximum E and

minimum C.

To obtain these settings, tur n the knob counter-clockwise
with respect to the off position. T o turn off the burner , turn the

knob clockwise until it stops (corresponding again with the •

symbol).

Models with Hob Gas Burner Safety Devices to
Prevent Leaks (see detail J).
Important: Since the hob burners are equipped with a

safety device , you must hold the control knob in f or about
6 seconds after the burner has been lighted to allow the
gas to pass until the safety thermocouple has heated.

Notice: The first time y ou use your appliance, we recom­mend that you set the thermostat to the highest setting
and leave the ov en on f or about half an hour with nothing
in it, with the oven door shut. Then, open the oven door
and let the room air. The odour that is often detected dur­ing this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances
used to protect the oven during storage and until it is in­stalled.

Attention: Only use the bottom shelf of the oven when using
the rotisserie to cook (where present). F or all other types of
cooking, never use the bottom shelf and ne ver place anything
on the bottom of the oven when it is in operation because
this could damage the enamel. Alwa ys place your cookware
(dishes, aluminium foil, etc. etc.) on the grate provided with
the appliance inserted especially along the oven guides.

The oven knobs

With these two controls you can select the different
functions of the oven and choose the cooking temperatu­re suitable for the food you are preparing. The different
cooking functions are set up by operating the two knobs:

L - the selection knob (identified by the symbol G)
M - the thermostat knob (identified by the symbol H) on

the oven panel.
For any selection-knob setting different from idle , identified
by the “0”, the ov en light turns on; the knob setting marked

permits turning on the oven light without any heating

element being switched on. When the oven light is on, it
means that the oven is in use, and it will remain on f or the
entire time the oven is being used.

1. Static oven

- Knob “L” setting: a

- Knob “M” setting: anywhere between 50°C and Max

The oven light turns on and the top and bottom heating
elements (resistors) switch on. The temperature , fix ed by
the thermostat knob, is reached automatically and kept
constant by the thermostat control. This function permits
cooking and type of food thanks to excellent temper ature
distribution.

2. The bottom heating element

- Knob “L” setting: y

- Knob “M” setting: anywhere between 50°C and Max

The oven light turns on and so does the bottom heating
element. The temperature, fixed by the thermostat knob,
is reached automatically and kept constant. This setting
is recommended for finishing the cooking of foods (placed
in pans) that are well done on the outside but still not done
inside or for desserts covered with fruit or jam which require
a light browning on top. Note that this function does not
permit reaching the maximum (250°C) temperature inside
for cooking foods always on this oven setting unless the
foods are cakes which only require temperatures below
or equal to 180°C.

3. The grill

- Knob “L” setting: D

- Knob “M” setting: Max

The oven light turns on and so does the infra-red ray g rill,
and the motor starts turning the spit. The rather high and
direct temperature of the grill permits browning the outside
of meats immediately thus keeping in the juices and
assuring tenderness.

4. The double grill

- Knob “L” setting: 2

- Knob “M” setting: Max

The oven light turns on and so does the double heating
element of the grill and the motor starts turning the spit.
This grill is larger than the average and has a completely
new design: cooking performance is increased 50%. The
double grill makes sure that even the corners are touched
by heat.
Important: when using the grill, keep the oven door closed
to obtain the best results and save energy (about 10%).
When utilizing the grill, place the rack at the lower levels
(see cooking table). To catch grease or fat and prevent
smoke, place a dripping-pan at the bottom rack le v el.

The rotisserie (only on a few models)
To operate the rotisserie, proceed as follows:

a) place the dripping-pan on the 1st rack;
b) insert the special rotisserie support on the 4th rack and

position the spit by inserting it through the special hole
into the rotisserie at the back of the oven;

c) to start the spit, set the oven selection knob (L) on

setting D (which delivers 50% of the total g rill power)
for small quantities of food, or on setting 2 (which

delivers total grill power).

8

The oven-operating pilot lamp (O)

Signals when the oven is heating. It s witches off when the
temperature inside the oven reached the temperature
selected by the knob. At this point the alternate turning on
and turning off of this light indicates that the thermostat is
operating correctly to keep the ov en temperature constant.

The cook-top electric plate control knobs (P)
The cookers may be equipped with standard, fast and
automatic electric plates in various combinations (the fast
plates distinguished from the others by a red dot in the
centre, the automatic ones by a round aluminium disk at
the centre.
To avoid heat dispersion and damage to the plates,
recommend using cooking vessels with flat bottoms in
diameters which are not smaller than the plate diameter.
Table shows the correspondence between the position
indicated on the knobs and the use for which the plates
advised.

Before using the hot plates for the first time, you
should heat them at maximum temperature for
approximately 4 minutes, without any pans. During
this initial stage, their protective coating hardens and
reaches its maximum resistance.

Timer Knob

T o use the timer , the ringer “S” must be wound up by turning
the knob one full turn clockwise 4; then turn it back 5, to

the desired time so that the number of minutes on the knob
matches the reference mark on the panel.

Attention

Av oid the children touch the oven door because it is very hot
during the cooking.

Practical advice for burner use

In order to get the maximum yield it is important to remember
the following:

· Use appropriate cookware for each bu rner (see table) so

as to avoid flames ov ershooting the edges.

· At boiling point turn the knob to minimum.

· Use cookware with lids.

· Always use cookware with flat bottoms .

Cooking advice

The oven off ers a wide range of alternatives which allow
you to cook any type of food in the best possib le wa y . With
time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile
cooking appliance and the following directions are only a
guideline which may be varied according to your o wn per­sonal experience.

Baking cakes

The oven should alwa ys be warm before putting in cak es
wait till the end of preheating (about 10-15 min.). Cake­baking temperatures are normally around 160°C/200°C.
Do not open the oven door during the baking process as
this could cause the cake to sink.In general:

Pastry is too dry

Increase the tem peratur e by 10°C and r educ e the
cooking time.

Pastry dropped

Use less liquid or lower the t emperat ure b y 10°C.

Pastry is too dark on top

Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and
increase the cooking time.

Cooked well on the inside but sticky on the
outside

Use less liquid, lower t he tem perat ure, and incr ease

the cooking time.

Cooking fish and meat

When cooking white meat, fowl and fish use low
temperatures. (150°C-175°C). When red meat must be
superficially well-cooked but succulent inside, it is
advisable to start with a high temperature (200-220°C)
for a short time, and then to reduce it at a later point.
Generally speaking, the more meat there is, the lower the
temperature and the longer the cooking time should
be.Place the meat in the centre of the grid and put a spill­tray underneath to catch grease drips. Insert the grid so
that it is in the middle of the oven. If more heat from below
is required, use the 1° bottom shelf.

T o grill

When using any of the grilling modes, it is recommended
that the thermostat knob be turned to the highest setting,
as it is the most efficient way to use the grill (which
utilizes infrared rays). If necessary, howe v er, the
thermostat can be set to lower temperatures for grilling.
When using the grill functions, place the grid on the
lower rac ks (see cooking tab le) then, to prevent f at and
grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and
smoke from forming, place a dripping-pan on the 1st
oven rack from the bottom.

Important: alwa ys use the g rill with the ov en door
closed. This will allow you both to obtain excellent results
and to save on energy (appro ximately 10%). T a ble 1
includes the recommended temperatures, cooking times
and positions for you to obtain the best results when
cooking.

Cooker routine maintenance and c leaning

Before each operation, disconnect the cooker from
the electricity .T o assure the long lif e of the cooker , it must

be thoroughly cleaned frequently , k eeping in mind that:

· Do not use steam equipment to clean the appliance.

· the enamelled parts and the self-cleaning panels are

washed with warm water without using any abrasive
powders or corrosive substances which could ruin
them;

· the inside of the oven should be cleaned fairly often
while it is still warm using warm water and detergent,
followed b y careful rinsing and drying;

· the flame spreaders should be washed frequently with
hot water and detergent taking care to eliminate any
scale;

· in cookers equipped with automatic lighting, the
terminal part of the electronic instant lighting devices
should be cleaned frequently and the gas outlet holes
of the flame spreaders should be checked to make sure
they are free of any obstructions;

· the electric plates are cleaned with a damp cloth and
they should be lubricated with a little oil while they still
warm;

· Stainless steel may become marked if it comes into
contact with very hard water or harsh detergents
(containing phosphorous) for long periods of time. After
cleaning, it is advisable to rinse thoroughly and dry. It
is also recommended to dry any water drops;

N.B: avoid closing the cover while the gas burners
are still warm. Remove any liquid from the lid before
opening it.
Important: per iodically check the wear of the gas hose

and substitute it if there are any defects; we recommended
changing it every year .

Replacing the oven lamp

· Unplug the oven from the mains;

· Remove the glass cov er of the lamp-holder;

· Remove the lamp and replace with a lamp resistant to

high temperatures (300°C) with the following
characteristics::

- V oltage 230V

- Wattage 25W

- T ype E14

· Replace the glass cover and reconnect the oven to

the mains.

Instructions pour l’installation

Les instructions suivantes sont destinées à l’installateur
qualifié afin d’effectuer les opérations d’installation, de
réglage et d’entretien technique de la manière la plus
correcte et conformément aux normes en vigueur.

Important: n’importe quelle opération de réglage,
d’entretien, etc..., doit être effectuée après avoir
débranché la prise de la cuisinière.

Nivellement (Il n’est présent que sur certains modèles)

Des petits pieds de réglage sont fournis de manière à
pouvoir niveler la cuisinière. Si nécessaire, ces petits pieds
peuvent être vissés dans les logements adaptés prévus
sur les angles à la base de la cuisinière.

Montage pieds (Il n’est présent que sur certains
modèles)
La cuisinière est fournie de pieds à monter par
encastrement sous la base.

dans le pays. Certains modèles prévoient l’alimentation
de gaz tant à droite qu’à gauche, selon les cas; pour
changer le raccordement, il faut inv ertir l’about annelé avec
le bouchon de fermeture et remplacer le joint d’étanchéité
(fourni avec l’appareil). Si l’alimentation s’effectue avec
du gaz liquide en bouteille, utilisez des régulateurs de
pression conformes à la réglementation en vigueur dans
le pays.
Important : pour un fonctionnement en toute sécurité,
une consommation correcte d’énergie et une plus longue
durée de vie de l’appareil, vérifiez que la pression
d’alimentation respecte bien les valeurs indiquées dans
le tableau 1 “Caractéristiques des brûleurs et des
injecteurs”.

Raccordement du tuyau flexible

Le raccordement doit être effectué au moyen d’un tuyau
flexible pour gaz conf orme aux caractéristiques indiquées
dans les normes en vigueur. Le diamètre interne du tuyau
à utiliser doit être de:

- 8mm pour l’alimentation avec gaz liquide;
Plus particulièrement, pour la mise en œuvre des tuyaux
flexibles, conformez-vous aux prescriptions suivantes :
contrôlez que le tuyau est bien installé aux deux extrémités
et fixez-le à l’aide de bagues de serrage conformes à la
réglementation en vigueur dans le pays. Si l’une ou
plusieurs de ces conditions ne peuvent pas être
respectées, il faudra se servir de tuyaux métalliques
flexibles.

Vérification de l’étanchéité
Important: une fois l’installation terminée, vérifier

l’étanchéité de tous les raccords en utilisant une solution
savonneuse et jamais une flamme. Après avoir effectué
le branchement, veillez à ce que le tuyau métallique fle xible
ne soit pas écrasé ni placé contre des parties mobiles.

peut atteindre une température de 50°C supérieure à cel­le ambiante. Il f aut observer les précautions suivantes pour
une installation correcte de la cuisinière:

• Installez cet appareil dans une cuisine, une salle à

manger ou un studio, jamais dans une salle de bains.

• Les meubles entourant l’appareil dont le plan de travail

dépasse en hauteur le plan de la cuisinière doivent
être placés à au moins 200 mm de distance de cette
dernière. Ne placez pas de rideaux juste derrière la
cuisinière ou sur les côtés, à moins de 200 mm.

Raccordement gaz

Le raccordement de l’appareil à la bouteille de gaz doit
être effectué conformément à la réglementation en vigueur

Branchement du câble d’alimentation au réseau
électrique

Monter sur le câble une fiche normalisée pour la charge
indiquée sur la plaquette des caractéristiques; en cas de
branchement direct au réseau, intercaler entre l’appareil
et l’installation électrique un interrupteur omnipolaire avec
ouverture minimum de 3 mm. entre les contacts,
dimensionné à la charge et conforme aux normes
Nationales (l’interrupteur ne doit pas interrompre le fil de
la terre). Le câble d’alimentation ne doit pas être soumis à
des températures supérieures de 50°C à celle ambiante.
Avant de procéder au branchement, vérifier que:

• le plomb réducteur et l’installation de l’appar tement

peuvent supporter la charge de l’appareil (voir plaquette
des caractéristiques);

• l’installation électrique est bien équipée d’une mise à

la terre efficace conformément aux normes et
dispositions de la loi;

• la prise ou l’interrupteur omnipolaire peuvent aisément

être atteints à cuisinière installée.
N.B: n’utiliser ni réducteurs, ni adaptateurs, ni dérivations
car ils pourraient provoquer des surchauffes ou des
brûlures. La fiche et la prise doivent être d’un accès
