Instructions for the user

Use: Control knobs on the top

The control panel incorporates the knobs to operate the top gas burners.

The burner knobs should be turned in anti-clockwise direction for the minimum setting, and in a clockwise direction for the maximum setting.

λNo gas supply

Maximum gas supply

Minimum gas supply

Lighting the burner on the cooking surface

First press the ignition push-button marked with a little spark, then push in the corresponding knob and turn it anticlockwise to the maximum position. The pressing of the push-button strikes the spark that lights the burner. Then adjust the flame as required.

If the flame does not come on even after several attempts, check the burner caps and crowns are correctly positioned.

To stop the gas supply turn the knob in a clockwise direction to the position λ.

Be very careful when cooking with fat or oil as the overheated splashes could easily flare up.

On burners sealed with an adhesive film we suggest to take the film off before use, in order to avoid burning and bad smells.

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. 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.

As for stoves equipped with lids, it is advisable not to close the lid while the burners are still hot.
