To light the cooktop burners
To light the burner, press the control knob fully down and hold the
knob down before rotating anti-clockwise to the High Flame
position. The ignition device is integrated into the control knob and
is automatically activated by pushing down on the control knob.
After lighting the flame, keep the knob pressed for about 10
seconds: this time is necessary to heat up the thermocouple
(Fig.1-D) and activate the safety valve, which would otherwise cut
off the gas flow. This step only applies where flame failure device is
fitted.
In the instance of a power failure, place a lit match near the burner
and proceed as described above. If the flame does not light after
the first attempt, wait 5 minutes for the gas to dissipate before
attempting to re-light the burner.
Once lit, check that the flame is even and turn the control knob to
adjust the flame as required. If the flame is uneven, check that the
'burner head/skirt' and 'burner cap' are correctly positioned. To turn
off the flame, turn the control knob clockwise to the off position
( symbol). Before removing pots or pans from the burners, always
turn off the flame.
For correct use of the cooktop
For lower gas consumption and better efficiency, use only flat-
bottomed pans of dimensions suitable for the burners, as shown in
the table below. Also, as soon as a liquid comes to the boil take
care to turn the flame down to a level that will just keep it boiling.
Burner Minimum diameter Maximum diameter
Large(rapid) 150mm 260mm
Medium(semi-rapid) 130mm 180mm
Small(Auxiliary) 90mm 160mm
Triple Flame (Wok) 210mm 270mm
During cooking processes involving fats or oils, watch your foods
carefully because these substances may catch fire if overheated.

How to use your oven
This multi-function oven combines the advantages of traditional
convection ovens with modern fan assisted ovens in a single
appliance. It is an extremely versatile appliance that allows you to
choose easily and safely between different cooking modes. The
various cooking modes are selected by means of a cooking mode
selection knob, located on the control panel.
To operate the oven:
· Ensure that manual mode is selected (page 16)
· Turn the cooking mode selection knob to the desired cooking
mode (explanation of cooking modes is on pages 14 to 15)
· Turn the cooking temperature selection knob to the desired
temperature (cooking guide is on pages 23 to 24) or to ‘MAX’ if
Grilling.
The first time you use your appliance, we recommend that you set
the thermostat to the highest setting, set the cooking mode
selection knob to a cooking mode and leave the oven on for about
half an hour with nothing in it and the oven door closed. Then,
open the oven door and allow the oven to cool. Any odour that may
be detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation of
substances used to protect the oven during storage.
Note: Place the Baking Tray provided on the bottom shelf position
of the oven to prevent any spillages from dripping onto the bottom
of the oven. Never place anything (including foil and oven
trays) on the bottom of the oven when it is in operation
because this could damage the enamel. Only place your
cookware (dishes, trays, aluminum foil, etc.) on the Oven Shelves
provided with the appliance.
12
If supplied, use the
chrome wire handle
shown left when
removing the trays
from the oven.
Use and Care
Positioning the oven trays & shelves
The Baking Tray, Grill Tray or Oven Shelf can be located in any of
the five height positions in the oven if your oven does not have
Telescopic Shelf Supports. Oven Shelves cannot be fitted to the
Telescopic Support. Only fit the Baking Tray or Grill Tray to the
Telescopic Support.
Refer to the ‘Cooking Mode Table’ for the recommended shelf
position. When fitting the trays or shelves, ensure they are fitted
between the two wires that are closest together as shown below.
Oven Shelves have a stop so that they are not fully withdrawn by
accident. To fully remove the Oven Shelves, lift the front of the shelf

COOKING MODES
Convection mode
When set to Convection mode, the top and bottom heating
elements operate together like a ‘normal’ conventional oven that
you have probably used before.
Convection mode is best suited for traditional baking and roasting
and you should only use one shelf at a time, otherwise the heat
distribution will be uneven. You can balance the amount of heat
between the top and the bottom of the dish by selecting a different
shelf height. If you want more heat at the top of the dish place the
dish on the top or second shelf. For more heat at the bottom of the
dish, place the dish on third or fourth shelf.
Delicate cooking mode
When set to Delicate cooking mode, the bottom element and the
fan will operate. This mode is suitable for pastries, cakes and nondry sweets in baking tins or moulds that require heat from the
bottom.
Top heat mode
When set to Top heat mode, the top heating element operates. This
mode can be used to brown food at the end of cooking.
Grill mode
Select ‘Grill’ mode with cooking mode selection knob and turn
cooking temperature selection knob to ‘Max’. When set to Grill
mode, the top inner element operates. The extremely high and
direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the
surface of meats and roasts while locking the juices in to keep
them tender. Grill mode can also be used for dishes that require a
high temperature on the surface such as beef steaks, veal, rib
steak, filets, hamburgers, etc.
Grill food with the oven door closed (when not using fan).
14
Use and Care
Fan assisted grill mode
Select ‘Fan Assisted Grill’ mode with cooking mode selection knob
and turn cooking temperature selection knob to the desired
temperature setting. When set to Fan Assisted Grill mode, the top
inner element and the fan operate. This mode increases the
circulation of air throughout the oven, which helps prevent food
from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate right
into the food. Particularly suitable for kebabs made with meats and
vegetables, sausages, ribs, lamb chops, chicken, quail, pork
chops, fish steaks, stuffed cuttlefish etc.
In Fan Assisted Grill mode, grill with the oven door closed.
Baking mode
When set to Baking mode, the fan element and the fan operate
providing a delicate heat distributed uniformly throughout the oven.
This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate foods on
multiple shelves, especially cakes that need to rise such as cream
puffs and for certain tartlets, sweet or savoury biscuits, savoury
puffs, swiss rolls and small portions of vegetables, etc.
Defrost mode
When set to ‘Defrost’ mode, the fan located at the back of the oven
circulates room temperature air around the food. This is
recommended for the defrosting of all types of food, but in
particular for delicate types of food which do not require heat, for
example: ice cream cakes, cream or custard desserts, fruit cakes,
etc. By using ‘Defrost’ mode, the defrosting time is approximately
halved. In the case of meat, fish and bread, it is possible to
accelerate the process by selecting ‘Multi Cooking mode’ and
setting the temperature between 80°C to100°C.

PRACTICAL COOKING ADVICE
The oven offers a wide range of settings which allow you to cook
any type of food in the best possible way. 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 own personal experience.
Preheating
If the oven needs to be preheated, the ‘Convection’ mode or
‘Baking’ mode should be selected. These are the most efficient
modes, which will reach the desired temperature as quickly as
possible using the least amount of energy.
Once the food has been placed in the oven, the desired cooking
mode should then be selected.
Multi shelf cooking
If you want to cook food on several shelves, select the ‘Baking’
mode as this is the only cooking mode that allows you to do so.
When cooking delicate foods on more than one shelf, use the
‘Baking’ mode. This mode allows you to cook on 3 shelves at the
same time. Refer to the ‘Cooking Guide’ table.
Use and Care
Using the grill
This multi-function oven has 2 different grilling modes.
Use the ‘Grill’ mode with the oven door closed, place the food
on the centre of the grill pan, insert and fit the grill pan on either
the 3rd or 4th shelf from the bottom. Note: only the central part of
the top heating element operates for grilling.
When using ‘Grill’ mode, we recommend you set the thermostat to
the highest setting. However, this does not mean you cannot use
lower temperatures, simply adjust the thermostat knob to the
desired temperature.
Use ‘Fan assisted grill’ mode with the oven door closed. This
mode is very useful for grilling foods rapidly, as the distribution of
heat by the fan makes it possible not only to brown the surface, but
also to cook the bottom of the food. It can also be used for
browning foods at the end of the cooking process, such as adding
that gratin finish to pasta bakes for example.
When using ‘Fan assisted grill’ mode, place the food on the 2nd or
3rd oven shelf from the bottom, then place a dripping-pan on the
1st rack from the bottom to prevent fat and grease from dripping
onto the oven floor. We recommend you set the thermostat to
200°C, as it is the most efficient temperature for ‘Fan assisted grill’
mode. However, this does not mean you cannot use lower
temperatures, simply adjust the thermostat knob to the desired
temperature.
Important: for best results and to save energy, always use the ‘Fan
assisted grill’ with the oven door closed.
20
Use and Care
Baking cakes
When baking cakes ,always place them in a preheated oven. Make
sure you wait until the oven has been preheated thoroughly (the
indicator light will turn off). To prevent heat loss and the cake from
dropping, do not open the oven door during baking.
In general...
... if pastry is too dry
Increase the temperature by 10°C and reduce the cooking time.
... if pastry has dropped
Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10°C.
... if pastry is too dark on top
Place it on a lower shelf, lower the temperature, and increase the
cooking time.
... if cooked well on the inside but sticky on the outside
Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking
time.
... if the pastry sticks to the pan
Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of flour or use
greaseproof paper.
... if I used multi shelf cooking and one shelf is more cooked
Use a lower temperature setting next time. It is not necessary to
remove the food from all the racks at the same time.
21
Use and Care
Cooking pizza
For best results when cooking pizza:
· Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes.
· Use a light aluminum pizza pan, placing it on the shelf supplied
with the oven. Don’t use the dripping pan since this will extend
the cooking time, making it difficult to get a crispy crust.
· Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is cooking;
· If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three or four), we recommend
you add the mozzarella cheese on top halfway through the
cooking process.
· For best results, only use one shelf at a time, but if you want to
cook on two shelves, use the 2nd and 4th racks from the bottom
with a temperature of 220°C and swap them halfway through
cooking.
Cooking fish and meat
When cooking white meat, fowl and fish, use a temperature setting
from 180°C to 200°C.
For red meat that you want well done on the outside while tender
and juicy in the inside, it is best to start with a high temperature
setting (200°C-220°C) for a short time, then turn the oven down
afterwards.
In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature setting.
Place the meat on the centre of the shelf and place the dripping
pan beneath it to catch the fat.
Make sure that the shelf is inserted so that it is in the centre of the
oven. If you would like to increase the amount of heat from below,
use a lower shelf height. For savoury roasts (especially duck and
wild game), dress the meat with lard or bacon on the top.

24
Use and Care
Cooktop cleaning and maintenance
Before cleaning, make sure all burners are 'off' and allow the
appliance to cool down.
The enamelled or stainless steel parts should be washed with
lukewarm water without using any abrasive powders or corrosive
substances. If any stainless steel has difficult to remove stains, use
cleaners specifically recommended to clean stainless steel. After
cleaning any surface, it is advisable to rinse thoroughly and dry.
Wash the burner caps and head/skirts often with hot water and
detergent, taking care to remove all deposits. Ensure the burner
ports in the head/skirts are clear and are not blocked by water or
detergent. The hob pan stands can also be washed in a
dishwasher. For stubborn dirt, use ordinary non-abrasive
detergents or specific commercial products. We strongly advise not
to use scouring pads, steel wool or acids for cleaning. Do not
steam clean this appliance.
Ignition plug
Automatic burner ignition is provided by a ceramic 'plug' and a
metal electrode (E in fig.1). Periodically clean these parts of the
hob thoroughly. In addition, to avoid ignition difficulties, check that
the cavities in the burner are not obstructed. To remove deposits
from the burner cavities, remove the burner caps (see images
right). After cleaning, put the burner heads and caps back together
and return them correctly to their position. After washing, replace
the pan supports, checking that they are correctly positioned.
25
Use and Care
Oven cleaning and maintenance
Before cleaning your oven or performing maintenance, make sure
that the cooking mode selection knob and the cooking temperature
selection knob is set to ‘OFF’. To extend the life of your oven, it
must be cleaned frequently.
The inside of the oven should preferably be cleaned immediately
after use, when it is still warm (but not hot), with warm water and
soap. The soap should be rinsed away and the interior dried
thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive detergents, scourers acidic
cleaners such as lime scale remover, etc. as these could damage
the enamel. If stains are particularly tough to remove, use cleaners
specifically recommended to clean ovens and follow the
instructions provided with the cleaner. Never use a steam cleaner
for cleaning inside the oven.
If you operate your oven for an extended period of time, or if you
are cooking dishes that contain a lot of water, condensation may
