Instructions for disposal
3. ENVIRONMENTAL CARE
3.1 Our environmental care
Pursuant to Directives 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC, 2003/108/EC, relating to the reduction of the use of
hazardous substances in electrical and electronic appliances, as well as to the disposal of refuse, the
crossed out bin symbol on the appliance indicates that the product, at the end of its useful life, must be
collected separately from other refuse. Therefore, the user must consign the product that has reached
the end of its working life to the appropriate selective collection centres for electrical and electronic
refuse, or deliver it back to the retailer when purchasing an equivalent product, on a one for one basis.
Adequate selective collection for the subsequent forwarding of the decommissioned product to recycling,
treatment and ecologically compatible disposal contributes to avoiding possible negative effects on the
environment and on health and promotes the recycling of the materials of which the appliance consists.
The illicit disposal of the product by the user results in the application of administrative sanctions.
The appliance does not contain substances in quantities sufficient to be considered hazardous to health
and the environment, in accordance with current European directives.
3.2 Your environmental care
Our appliances are packed in non-polluting materials, which are therefore compatible with the
environment and recyclable. Please help by disposing of the packaging correctly. You can obtain the
addresses of collection, recycling and disposal centres from your retailer or from the competent local
organisations.
Do not discard the packaging or any part of it, or leave it unattended. It can constitute a
suffocation hazard for children, especially the plastic bags.
Your old appliance also needs to be disposed of correctly.
Important: hand over your appliance to the local agency authorised for the collection of household
appliances no longer in use. Correct disposal enables intelligent recovery of valuable materials.
Before disposing of your appliance it is important to remove doors and leave shelves in the same
position as for use, to ensure that children cannot accidentally become trapped inside during play. It is
also necessary to cut the connecting cable to the power supply network, removing it along with the plug.

Instructions for the user
6. USING THE COOKING HOB
6.1 General warnings and advice
Before lighting the hob burners, make sure that the flame-spreader crowns are correctly positioned in
their housings with their respective burner caps.
Before lighting the burners lift the glass lid (where present); before closing it again, turn off all burners
and wait for them to cool.
6.2 Lighting the hob burners
All controls and monitoring devices of the appliance are grouped together on the front panel. The burner
controlled by each knob is shown next to the knob. The appliance is equipped with an electronic lighter.
Simply press the knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the maximum flame symbol until the burner lights. If
the burner does not light in the first 15 seconds, turn the knob to “0” and wait 60 seconds before trying
again. After lighting, keep the knob pressed down for a few seconds to allow the thermocouple to heat
up. The burner may go out when the knob is released: in this case, the thermocouple has not heated up
sufficiently. Wait a few moments and repeat the operation keeping the knob pressed for longer.
If the burners go out accidentally, a safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the
gas tap is open. In this case, turn the knob to the OFF position and wait at least 60 seconds before trying
to light the burner again.
Warning:
At the end of cooking using pans with aluminium bases you may find white residues on the cast iron
pan stands. These residues are usually caused by the pan base rubbing against the pan stand and are
difficult to remove with normal cleaning. Using abrasive or excessively aggressive products to clean the
pan stand could damage its enamel surface.
6.3 Practical hints for using the hob burners
For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption: use pans with lids and of a suitable size
for the burner, so that the flames do not reach up the sides of the pan (see paragraph “6.5 Pan
diameters”). Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to ensure that the liquid
does not boil over. If any liquid does boil over or spill, remove the excess from the hob.
To prevent burns or damage to the hob during cooking, all pans or griddles must be placed inside the
perimeter of the hob. All pans must have smooth, flat bottoms.
If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait at least 1 minute before
trying to re-light the burner.
Take the greatest care when using fats or oils since they may catch fire if overheated.
6.4 Electric plate
In order to keep food hot using the electric plate, you will need to remove the rack and place the small
trays or saucepans containing the food directly onto the glass surface of the electric plate. The rack only
functions as a support for saucepans or trays when the electric plate is not in use.
