OVENDOORPROTECTIONDEVICE
All our appliances comply with the European Safety Standards. Nevertheless, in order to ensure the highest safety level, and avoid little children to be exposed to the heat when the appliance is operated, it is possible to fit a special protection device to the oven door. This device can be purchased in our Service Force Centres, specifying the relevant code ( 3 5 7 9 1 ) and the Product No. shown on the rating plate. Fitting instructions are provided with the kit package.

Ceramic glass hob
Using the hotplates
The control panel incorporates knobs to operate the four hot plates.
A)Fig.1: This is a 7 position control knob: 0 = off and 1- 6 indicate the levels of power uo to the mawimum.
B)Fig.2: This is a 7 position control knob: 0 = off and 1- 3 indicate the levels of power uo to the mawimum.
C)Fig. 3: Double circuit cooking zone: this cooking zone has two heating elements.
-To switch on the smaller cooking zone, turn the relevant control knob to the required heat setting between 1 and 6.
-To switch on both heating elements, turn the control knob to maximum heat setting (6) then turn the knob further to nearly reach the “0” symbol. You will hear a “click” and the wider cooking zone will switch on. Then turn back the knob and adjust it to the required heat setting. Now the two heating elements will operate together, giving a higher power output that a normal cooking zone.
Models with hob pilot light
The ceramic glass hob is equipped with a pilot light which turns on when the surface is too hot; it is a helpful device which protects users from burns.
This light turns on some minutes after the plate has been set into operation, abd it stays on during the whole time of functioning and also when the plate is off to show the presence of residual heat in the pyroceram surface.
The pilot light turns finally off only when the surface temperature decreases to safety values (lukewarm temperature), more o less 50°C, allowing users to clean the plate with no risk.

Practical Hints
The ceramic glass hob is resistent to sudden changes in temperature, it is insensitive to heat and cold and hals also a good resistence to mechanical blows; a sharpened object, however, no matter if it is small (for example a point of a knife) can irreparably damage the cooking surface, jeopardising its functionality.
Before using the cooking plate for the first time, carefully wash the pyroceram plate with a non-abrasive detergent, dry it and then wsitch it on for about 10 minutes at the highest position.
When using the cooking plate for the first time, unpleasant smells, or smell of burnt material, might be smelt: this is absolutely normal and it is due to the evaporation of greasy working residues and of hte dope used during the installation. These smells will vanish after some time of working.
Attention: is the surface shows a crack, immediately switch the equipment off and call the Aftersales Service.

Suitable pans and pots
Remember that a large pan offers a larger surface to heat and therefore cooks food quicker than a narrow pan.
Always use pans of a size suitable for the food to be cooked. In particular, take care that pans are not too small for liquid preparations which could easily spill over or that they are not too big for food which must be cooked quickly; uncovered areas on the bottom are easily burnt by fats and juice.
For cakes, it is preferable to use tins which do not open. A tin which opens lets out fruit juices and sugar which, when spilling onto the bottom of the oven, caramelize and are difficult to clean. Avoid placing pans with plastic handles in the oven as they may not support the heat.
Saucepans suitable for use on solid plate hobs should have several characteristics:
-they should be heavy duty.
-they should fit the heat area exactly, or be slightly larger for efficient use, NEVER smaller.
-they should have a flat base to ensure good contact with the plate (Fig. 4).
This is particularly important when using pans for high temperature frying or pressure cooking.
Ensure pans are large enough to avoid liquids being split onto the plates.
Never leave the plates on without a pan on them or with an empty pan on them.
Particular care should be taken when cooking with oil or fat.
During cooking, when using fats or oils, take particular care as they can, when overheated, self-ignite.

While the grill is in function, leave the door half-open and to put the protective screen to the knob (fig.7).
Mechanical minute-minder (ZCV 6640)
Some models are equipped with a mechanical minute minder.
The minute-minder may be set for a maximum time of one hour. The regulation knob (fig.8) must be turned clockwise until the 60-minute position is reached and then anti-clockwise to the required time.
Once the pre-set time has elapsed, a signal will be heard which automatically cuts out. The oven, however, will remain on.
Dripping pans and grids
The oven is equipped with an enamelled dripping-pan which function is to collect the juices dripping from the meat on the grill or on the spit, and a grid for the cooking of foods on the grill or in a pan.
In models provided with oven grids with a position catch (fig. 9) and when cooking on the grill or on the spit, you are advised to fit the dripping-pan (A-fig. 9) in the guides beneath the grill (B-fig. 9) to avoid dirtying the oven.
if you need to place the dripping-pan over the oven grid during cooking, position it as shown in the particular of Fig. 9.
When using the oven for the first time
When using the oven for the first time
a)set the oven knob to and the thermostat knob to MAX;
b)allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45 minutes;
c)open a window for ventilation.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is absolutely normal, and is caused by residues of manufacturing.
Once this operation is carried out, let the oven cool down, thencleantheovencavitywithasoftclothsoakedinwarm soapy water.
Before cooking for the first time, carefully wash the shelf and the dripping pan.
