Hints and Tips
Environmental information
The use of a gas cooking appliance
produces heat and humidity in the
room in which it is installed. Ensure
good ventilation of the room by
keeping natural ventilation openings
clear or installing an extractor hood
with a discharge tube.
A prolonged and intensive use of the
appliance may necessitate
supplementary ventilation, for
example the opening of a window or
a more efficient ventilation by
increasing the power of mechanical
extraction, if existing.

Hob burners
To light a burner:
Push the electric ignition button which is marked with
a little spark ( ).
At the same time, push in and turn the relevant control
knob anticlockwise to maximum position.
Upon ignition, keep the knob pushed down about five
seconds until the safety valve (“thermocouple - Fig.
1-D”) automatically keeps the flame lit.
Then adjust the flame as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to
zero, and try again.
When switching on the mains, after installation
or a power cut, it is quite normal for the spark
generator to be activated automatically.
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the
recommended size, the flame will spread beyond
the bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to
overheat.
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down
the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
simmering.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as
the overheated splashes could easily ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please
contact your local Service Centre.
Using the Hob
Using the Wok Stand
A wok stand is provided to enable you to use a round
bottomed wok on the hob. The wok stand must only be
used on the triple crown burner, and should not be used
with any other type of wok or pan.
When fitting the wok stand, ensure the recesses in the
frame fit securely onto the bars of the pan supports, as
shown in the diagram (Fig. 2 - b).
Triple-crown burner
Always ignite the burner before putting the
pans on.
If after a few attempts the burner does not ignite,
check that the burner cap and crown are correctly
positioned (Fig. 3).

Condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same
way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of
this steam to escape. However, always stand back
from the oven when opening the oven door to allow
any build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on
the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and
produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not
a fault with the oven.
To prevent discoloration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
Cookware
• Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand
temperatures of 250°C.
• Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back
of the oven, or placed on the oven base.
• Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm
(12 in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of
heat and may affect performance.
Hints and Tips
Storage Drawer
The storage drawer is located underneath the oven
cavity.
During cooking the storage drawer may become hot if
the oven is on high for a long period of time, therefore
flammable materials such as oven gloves, tea towels,
plastic aprons etc. should not be stored in the drawer.
Oven accessories such as baking sheets, will also
become hot, therefore care should be taken when
removing these items from the drawer whilst the oven
is in use or still hot.
Before the First Use of the Oven
Remove all packaging, both inside and outside
the oven, before using the oven.
Before first use, the oven should be heated without food.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted.
This is quite normal.
1. Switch the oven function control knob to
conventional cooking .
2. Set the thermostat control knob to MAX.
3. Open a window for ventilation.
4. Allow the oven to run empty for
approximately 45 minutes.
This procedure should be repeated with the fan cooking
and grill function for approximately 5-10 minutes.
• Always cook with the oven door closed.
• Stand clear when opening the drop down oven
door. Do not allow it to fall open - support the
door using the door handle, until it is fully open.
• The oven has fourteen shelf levels.
• The shelf positions are counted from the bottom of
the oven.
• It is important that these shelves are correctly
positioned as shown in Fig. 7.
• Do not place cookware directly on the oven base.

The effects of dishes
on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,
colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to
the food inside them.
A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright
shiny utensils reduce cooking and underneath
browning.
B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium
with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark,
heavy utensils increase cooking and underneath
browning.
