2. DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS – OUR ENVIRONMENT POLICY

Our appliances are only packaged using non-pollutant, environment-friendly, recyclable materials. We urge you to cooperate by disposing of the packaging properly. Contact your local dealer or the competent local organisations for the addresses of collection, recycling and disposal facilities. Never leave all or part of the packaging lying around. Packaging parts, and especially plastic bags, may represent a suffocation hazard for children. Your old appliance must also be disposed of properly. Important deliver the appliance to your local organisation authorised to collect scrapped appliances. Proper disposal allows the intelligent recovery of valuable materials. Refrigeration appliances contain gases which may damage the environment; it is important to ensure that the refrigeration circuit pipelines are not damaged until the competent service has taken delivery of the appliance. Before scrapping your appliances it is important to remove doors and leave shelves in position as for use, to ensure that children cannot accidentally become trapped inside during play. Also, cut the power supply lead and remove it and the plug.

6. BEFORE FIRST USE

Do not leave the packing in the home environment. separate the various waste materials and take them to the nearest special garbage collection centre.

The inside of the appliance should be cleaned to remove all manufacturing residues. For further information about cleaning, see section "12. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE"

Using the oven, the grill and the toaster compartment for the first time, heat them to the maximum temperature for as long as it takes to burn off any production oil residues which could give a nasty flavour

to the food. After a power cut, the oven display will flash intermittently and show . To adjust refer to paragraph "11. TIMER”

Instructions for the user

7. USE OF THE HOB

7.1 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.

7.2 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 licking the sides (see paragraph “ 7.3 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 relight the burner.

correct use of the timer knob, refer to point “11. TIMER”.

HOB BURNER COMMAND KNOB

The flame is lit by pressing the knob and turning it anticlockwise to minimum

flame . To adjust the flame turn the knob between maximum ( ) and

minimum ( ). The burner goes out when the knob is returned to the position.

MAIN OVEN THERMOSTAT KNOB

Selection of cooking temperature is carried out by turning the knob clockwise to the required temperature, between 50° and 260°C. The warning light will come on when the oven is heating up. When it goes out it means that the required temperature has been reached. Regular flashing means that oven temperature is being constantly maintained at the programmed level.
