knob to and wait at least 60 seconds before lighting the hob
again.
Adjusting the flame
Practical advice for using the hob
For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption, use pans with lids and of suitable size for the burner, so that the flames do not reach up the sides of the pan.
Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to ensure that the liquid does not boil over.

Use
Functions list
Static
As the heat comes from above and below at the same time, this system is particularly suitable for certain types of food. Traditional cooking, also known as static cooking, is suitable for cooking just one dish at a time. Perfect for all types of roasts, bread and cakes and in any case particularly suitable for fatty meats such as goose and duck.
Lower element
The heat coming just from the bottom allows you to complete the cooking of foods that require a higher bottom temperature, without affecting their browning. Perfect for cakes, pies, tarts and pizzas.
Small grill
Using only the heat released from the central element, this function allows you to grill small portions of meat and fish for making kebabs, toasted sandwiches and any types of grilled vegetable side dishes.
Grill
The heat coming from the grill element gives perfect grilling results above all for thin and medium thickness meat and, in combination with the rotisserie (where fitted), gives the food an even browning at the end of cooking. Perfect for sausages, spare ribs and bacon. This function enables large quantities of food, particularly meat, to be grilled evenly.
Fan with grill
The air produced by the fan softens the strong heatwave generated by the grill, grilling perfectly even very thick foods. Perfect for large cuts of meat (e.g. shin of pork).
Turbo (on some models only)
The combination of fan assisted cooking and traditional cooking allows different foods to be cooked on several levels extremely quickly and efficiently, without odours and flavours mingling. Perfect for large volumes that call for intense cooking.
EN
31
Use
Fan assisted (on some models only)
The operation of the fan, combined with traditional cooking, ensures consistent cooking even with complex recipes. Perfect for biscuits and cakes, even when simultaneously cooked on several levels. (For multiple-level cooking,
we recommend using the 2
th
shelves).
4
Fan with circulaire
The combination of the fan and the circulaire heating element (incorporated in the rear of the oven) allows you to cook different foods on several levels, as long as they need the same temperatures and same type of cooking. Hot air circulation ensures instant and even distribution of heat. It will be possible, for instance, to cook fish, vegetables and biscuits simultaneously (on different levels) without odours and flavours mingling.
Defrost
Rapid defrost is helped by the activation of a fan to ensure uniform distribution of room temperature air inside the oven. Perfect for any type of food.

and
3.5 Opening the storage
compartment
The storage compartment is located at the bottom of the appliance. It can be used to store pans or metal objects necessary for using the appliance (for example trays or racks).
To open the storage compartment:
• Pull the handle towards you.
3.6 Cooking advice
General advice
• Use a fan assisted function to achieve consistent cooking at several levels.
• It is not possible to shorten cooking times by increasing the temperature (the food could be overcooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside).
Advice for cooking meat
• Cooking times vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and to consumer taste.
• Use a meat thermometer when roasting meat, or simply press on the roast with a spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; If not, it needs another few minutes cooking.
32
Use
Advice for cooking with the Grill and the Fan with grill
• Meat can be grilled even when it is put into the cold oven or into the preheated oven if you wish to change the effect of the cooking.
• With the Fan with grill function, we recommend that you preheat the oven before grilling.
• We recommend placing the food at the centre of the rack.
• With the Grill function, we recommend that you turn the temperature knob to the
maximum value near the symbol to optimise cooking.
• Foods should be seasoned before cooking. Foods should also be coated with oil or melted butter before cooking.
• Use the oven tray on the first bottom shelf to collect liquids produced by grilling.
• Grilling processes must never last more than 60 minutes.
• If the dessert collapses when it comes out of the oven, on the next occasion reduce the set temperature by about 10°C, selecting a longer cooking time if necessary.
• While cooking desserts or vegetables, excessive condensation may form on the glass. In order to avoid this, open the door very carefully a couple of times while cooking.
Advice for defrosting
• Place frozen foods without their packaging in a lidless container on the first shelf of the oven.
• Avoid overlapping the food.
• To defrost meat, use the rack placed on the second level and a tray on the first level. In this way, the liquid from the defrosting food drains away from the food.
• The most delicate parts can be covered with aluminium foil.
EN
Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and biscuits
• Use dark metal moulds: They help to absorb the heat better.
• The temperature and the cooking time depend on the quality and consistency of the dough.
• To check whether the dessert is cooked right through: At the end of the cooking time, put a toothpick into the highest point of the dessert. If the dough does not stick to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.
To save energy
• Stop cooking a few minutes before the time normally used. Cooking will continue for the remaining minutes with the heat which has accumulated inside the oven.
• Reduce any opening of the door to a minimum to avoid heat dispersal.
• Keep the inside of the appliance clean at all times.

Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning the hob grids, flame-spreader crowns and burner caps
1. Remove the components from the hob.
2. Clean them with warm water and non­abrasive detergent. Make sure to remove any encrustations.
3. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.
4. Replace the components on the hob.
The continuous contact between the grids and the flame can cause modifications to the enamel over time in those parts exposed to heat. This is a completely natural phenomenon which has no effect on the operation of this component.
Cleaning the igniters and thermocouples
• If necessary, clean the igniters and thermocouples with a damp cloth.
• If there is any dry residue, remove it with a toothpick or needle.
Recommendations for cleaning the oven compartment
For the best oven upkeep, clean it regularly after having allowed it to cool.
Avoid letting food residue dry inside the oven compartment, as this could damage the enamel.
Take out all removable parts before cleaning.
For easier cleaning, we recommend removing:
• The door
• The rack/tray support frames
• The oven seal.
In the event you are using specific cleaning products, we recommend running the oven at maximum temperature for 15-20 minutes in order to eliminate any residue.
