by grills, must be suitably dimensioned in compliance with the
current regulations and positioned so that no part of it is obstructed.
The cooker must be kept adequately ventilated in order to eliminate
the heat and humidity produced by cooking: in particular, after
prolonged use, it is recommended to open a window or to increase
the speed of any ventilators.
2.2.2 Extraction of the products of combustion
Extraction of the products of combustion must be ensured by
means of hoods connected to a natural draught chimney whose
efficiency is assured or via forced extraction. An efficient extraction
system requires precision planning by a specialist qualified in this
area and must comply with the positions and distances indicated by
the regulations. When the job is complete, the installer must issue a
certificate of conformity.
2.3 Connection to gas

out so that the hose length is no greater than 1.5 metres. Make
sure that the hose does not come into contact with moving parts or
is squashed. The inside diameter of the hose must be 8 mm for
LIQUID GAS and 13 mm for NATURAL GAS.
Verify that all the following conditions are met:
• the hose is fixed to the hose connection with safety clamps;
9
• no part of the hose is in contact with the hot walls (max. 50 °C);
• the hose is not under traction or tension and has no tight curves or
twists;
• the hose is not in contact with sharp objects or sharp corners;
• if the hose is not perfectly airtight and leaks gas, do not try and
repair it: replace it with a new hose;
• verify that the hose is not beyond its life cycle (serigraphed on the
hose itself).
Connection using rubber hoses complying with the current
regulations is only permitted if the hose can be inspected along
its entire length.
The tightening torque between connections that incorporate the
gasket must not exceed 10Nm.
2.3.2 Connection to natural gas

Instructions for the user
6. Use of the hob
6.1 Lighting of the hob burners
Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame caps are in the
correct position and that their burner caps are in place, making sure
that the holes A in the flame caps correspond to the spark plugs
and thermocouples.
The optional grid B is for use with “woks” (Chinese pans).
To prevent deterioration of the hob we have equipped the cooker
with a raised pan stand C to be placed underneath pans more than
26 cm in diameter.
The supplied reduction rest C is used also for small pans.
The drawing next to each knob shows the
corresponding burner. The appliance has an
electronic lighting device. Simply press and turn the
knob anticlockwise to the minimum flame symbol ,
until the flame is lit. Hold the knob down for a few
seconds to allow the thermocouples to heat up. The
burner may go out when the knob is released: this is because the
thermocouple has not been sufficiently heated. Repeat the
operation holding down the knob a little longer. This operation is not
necessary for burners without thermocouples.
For models with thermocouples, should the burner accidentally
go out, a safety device will be activated which stops the gas
flow even if the tap is open.
19
6.2 Practical advice for using the hob burners
For better use of the burners and lower gas consumption, use
covered vessel that are proportional in size to the burner to prevent
the flame from heating the sides (see paragraph “6.3 Diameter of
the vessels to be used on each burner”). When water reaches the
boiling point, lower the flame so that it doesn’t overflow. To avoid
burns or damage to the hob, all vessels or griddle plates must be
placed within the perimeter of the hob. All vessels must have a flat
and smooth bottom. When using fats or oils, be extremely careful
that they don’t overheat and catch fire.
If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait
at least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner.

The cover can be removed from the hinges by lifting
it upwards when it is open. This makes cleaning
easier.
If liquids are spilt on the closed lid, remove them
thoroughly with a rag before opening it.

11.2.2 Grids
Remove the grids and clean them in warm water with a nonabrasive detergent, taking care to remove any incrustations.
Replace them on the cooking hob.
Continuous contact of the grids with the flame can cause the paint
near the hot areas to be altered. This is completely natural and
does not compromise the functionality of the component.
11.2.3 Burner caps and flame cap crowns
The caps and flame-spreader crowns are
extractable to facilitate cleaning. Wash them in hot
water with non-abrasive detergent, taking care to
remove any encrustations, and wait until they are
perfectly dry.
WARNING: do not wash these components in the
dishwasher.
Replace the flame-spreader crowns, checking that they are
positioned in their housing with their respective caps, taking care
that flame-spreader holes A correspond to the spark plugs and the
thermocouples.
11.2.4 The spark plugs and thermocouples
To function properly the spark plugs and thermocouples
must always be clean (on the models which are
equipped with them). Check them regularly and clean
with a damp cloth if necessary. Any dry residues can be
removed with a toothpick or a needle.
11.2.5 The burners
The burners can be left to soak in hot water and detergent.

Instructions for the user
11.3 Cleaning of oven
For best oven upkeep clean regularly after having allowed to cool.
Take out all removable parts.
• Clean the oven grill with hot water and non-abrasive detergent.
Rinse and dry.
• Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set inside
the oven. If left to set for too long, they might damage the enamel
lining of the oven.
11.4 Door glass
The door glass should always be kept clean. Use absorbent kitchen
paper to clean. In case of tough spots, clean with a damp sponge
using regular detergent.
When cleaning, the appliance must be dried thoroughly
since detergent and water drips might damage its operation
and appearance.

12. Extraordinary maintenance
The oven may require extraordinary maintenance or replacement of
parts subject to wear such as seals, bulbs, and so on. The following
instructions describe how to carry out these minor maintenance
operations.
Before any intervention, disconnect the power supply of the
device.
12.1 Replacement of light bulb
Remove cover A by twisting anticlockwise, replace bulb B with
another similar bulb (25 W).
Refit the cover A.
Only use oven bulbs (T 300°C).
12.2 Removing the door
Hold the door on both sides with both hands
near hinges A and raise levers B. Lift up the
door forming an angle of about 45° and
remove. To refit, slide the hinges A in the
grooves, drop the door and release levers B.
12.3 Oven door seal
To permit thorough cleaning of the oven, the seal may
be removed. Before removing the seal, take off the door
as described above. Once the door has been taken off,
lift the tabs at the corners as shown in the figure.
12.4 Lubrication of the taps and gas oven thermostat
In time the taps may be difficult to turn or may be blocked. Clean
them inside and replace the lubrication grease. This operation
