General control lamp

The general control lamp will switch on when

the oven function control knob and/or the

cooking zone control knobs are set.

Oven light

It’s lighted once the oven function knob is

turned on and lights during the oven func-

tioning.

Before first use

Warning! Before using the appliance,

remove all packaging, both inside and

outside the appliance, including the

advertising labels and any protective

film.

Before cooking for the first time, carefully

wash the oven accessories.

Heating the empty 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. Set the oven function control knob to

maximum temperature, conventional

cooking will be activated

2. Open a window for ventilation

3. Allow the oven to run empty for approxi-

mately 45 minutes

This procedure should be repeated with the

grill function

for approximately 5-10 mi-

nutes.

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 washing-up

liquid has been added.

Heating the hotplate

When using the hob for the first time, it is im-

portant to note that the plate may smoke a

little and produce a slightly unpleasant odour

when used for the first time. This is quite nor-

mal and will disappear after a few minutes.

Helpful hints and tips

Using the gas hob

Start your cooking with a big flame by turning

the knob to the symbol

. Then adjust the

flame as necessary.

The outside of the flame is much hotter than

its inside (nucleus). Accordingly , the top of

the flame should lick the bottom of the pan.

Excessive flames mean a waste of gas.

In contrast with electric grids, gas burners do

not require flat-bottomed pans: the flames

lick the bottom and spread the heat all over

the surface.

No special pans are required for gas

burners. However, thin walled pans

transmit the heat to the food more quick-

ly than thick-walled ones.

Since heat doesn't spread evenly on the

pan's bottom, the food may only be partially

heated. Consequently it is advisable to stir

the food many times.

A thick pan bottom prevents partial over-

heating as it allows sufficient thermic com-

pensation.

Avoid very small pans. Wide and shallow

pans are more suitable than narrow and

deep ones as they allow a faster heating.

Cooking is not quickened by placing narrow

pans on wide burners. The result is just a

waste of gas. For a proper usage, place small

pans on small burners and large pans on

large burners.

Remember to cover pans to reduce gas

consumption.

Using the hotplate

Saucepans suitable for use on solid hotplate

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

This is particularly important when using

pans for high temperature frying or pressure

cooking.

Ensure pans are large enough to avoid liq-

uids being split onto the plates.

Never leave the plates on without a pan on

them or with an empty pan on them.
