The Gas Burner Controls

Hob Control knobs (Fig. 1)

The knobs for using the gas hob are found on the control
panel. The knobs are marked with the following symbols:

• No gas supply

Maximum gas supply

Minimum gas supply

This appliance is equipped with a safety-valve. In case
of extinction of the flame this device will operate stopping
gas supply (ex.: overflowing, draughts).

To light a burner:



1. push the relevant control knob in completely
and turn it anticlockwise to the maximum position

( );

2. upon ignition, keep the knob pushed down for
about 5 seconds. This will allow the
"thermocouple" (see picture - D) to be heated
and the safety device to be switched off, otherwise
the gas supply would be interrupted;

3. then, check the flame is regular and adjust it
as required.

If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero,
and try again.

If after a few attempts the burner does not ignite, check
that the burner cap and crown (see picture - A, B) are
correctly positioned.
To interrupt the supply of gas, turn the knob in a
clockwise direction to the position "".

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 pan, 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.

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only
use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of
the burner used (see table).

Pottery

Remember that a wide-bottomed pan allows a faster
cooking than a narrow one.
Always use pots which properly fit what you have to cook.
Particularly make sure that the pans are not too small
for liquids, since these could easily overflow.
Moreover, the pans should not be too large for a faster
cooking. In fact, grease and juices may spread on the
bottom and burn easily.
It is better to use non-openable moulds for baking cakes.
In fact, an openable mould lets juices and sugar leak
through, falling on the bottom of the oven and
consequently burning on the bottom of the baking tray,
making cleaning difficult.
Avoid putting plastic-handled pans in the oven as they
are not heat-proof.
You should use pans with the right diameter to fit the
burner, in order to make the most out of it, thus reducing
gas consumption as shown in the picture.
It is also advisable to cover any boiling casserole and,
as soon as the liquid starts boiling, lower the flame
enough to keep the boiling point.

The minute minder

The minute minder will mark the end of a timed period with
an acoustic alarm. The maximum timing is 120 minutes.

To set the minute minder:

1. Select the desired cooking function with the
oven function control knob.

2. Turn the minute minder control knob clockwise
until the 120-minute position and then back to
the required time.

3. Once the pre-set time has elapsed, an acoustic
signal will be heard and the oven will
automatically switch off.

Turn the minute minder control knob to the

position and the oven function and thermostat
control knobs to OFF position.

Turn the minute minder control knob to the

position if you want to cook without setting a timed
period.

Electric Oven

Oven Function Control Knob

0 The oven is off.

The oven light is on.

Conventional cooking - The heat comes

from both the top and bottom element,
ensuring even heating inside the oven.

Bottom heating element - The heat comes

from the bottom of the oven only.

Inner grill - It can be used for grilling small

quantities.

Full grill - The full grill element will be on.

Pizza - The bottom element provides direct

heat to the base of pizzas, quiches or pies,
while the fan ensures air is circulated to cook
the pizza toppings or pie fillings.

Fan cooking - This allows you to roast or roast

and bake simoultaneously using any shelf,
without flavour transference.

Defrost Setting - This setting is intended to

assist in thawing of frozen food.

Thermostat Control Knob

Turn the thermostat control knob clockwise to select
temperatures between 50°C and 230°C (MAX).

Thermostat Control Light

The thermostat control light will come on when the
thermostat control knob is turned. The light will remain on
until the correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle
on and off to show the temperature is being maintained.

The Safety Thermostat

This oven is provided with a safety thermostat. In case of
malfunctioning of the main thermostat, and consequential
over-heating, the safety device will stop the power supply
to the appliance. If this happens, call your local Service
Force Centre. Under no circumstances should you
attempt to repair the appliance yourself.

Before the First Use of the Appliance

Before using the appliance, remove all packaging,
both inside and outside the appliance, including
the advertising labels and any protective film.

Before using the oven, make sure the minute

minder control knob is in the position.

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 full grill

function and the fan cooking function for approximately

5-10 minutes.

Once this operation is carried out, let the oven cool
down, then clean the oven cavity with a soft cloth
soaked in warm water to which a little mild washing­up liquid has been added.

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.
