CONTROL PANEL DESCRIPTION
On the control panel, small symbols show the function of each knob or key. Here as follows are the several controls that
a cooker can have:
the symbol
shows the disposition of burners on the worktop, the full dot identifies the burner in object (in
this case the front burner on the right).
USE OF THE BURNERS
On the control panel above every knob there is a diagram which indicates which burner the knob in question refers to. The burners can
be turned on in several ways according to the type of appliance and its individual features:
- Manual “On” switch ( this is always possible even if the electric current is cut off ):
Turn the knob corresponding to the selected
burner in an anticlockwise direction so that the knob is at MAXIMUM (this corresponds to a large flame) and then put a lit match to the
burner.
- Electric “On” switch:
Turn the knob corresponding to the selected burner in an anticlockwise direction so that the knob is at
MAXIMUM (this corresponds to a large flame) and then press the lighter button and let it go as soon as the burner is alight..
- Automatic Electric “On” switch:
Turn the knob corresponding to the selected burner in an anticlockwise direction so that the knob is
at MAXIMUM (this corresponds to a large flame) and then press in the knob. Let it go as soon as the burner is alight.
- “On “ switch for burners with safety device ( thermocouples ):
Turn the knob corresponding to the selected burner in an
anticlockwise direction so that the knob is at MAXIMUM (this corresponds to a large flame) and then use one of the lighting devices
described above. When the burner is lit keep the knob pressed in for about 10 seconds in order to allow the flame to heat up the
thermocouple. If the burner goes out when letting the knob go, repeat the operation all over again.
N.B.: You are advised not to try and light a burner if its flame divider is not correctly in place.
Advice for the best use of the burners:
- Use suitable pans for each burner ( see tab. n° 4 and Fig. 15 ).
- When boiling point is reached turn the knob on to MINIMUM.
- Always use pans with a lid.

ATTENTION: use containers with a flat bottom
ATTENTION: If there is no electric current you can light the burners with matches.
Lighting the burners with safety thermocouples can only be carried out when the knob is on MAXIMUM (large flame) .When
cooking food with oil or fat which can easily set alight, the user must not leave the appliance.
Do not use sprays near the appliance when it is in use. When using the burners make sure that the pan handles are in the
correct position. Keep children away. If the hob has a lid, before closing it, make sure that the surrounding work surface is
cleaned of any food that has been left there.
NOTE: The use of a gas cooking appliance produces heat and humidity in the place where it is installed. Therefore you need to
ensure that the place is well ventilated, keeping clear the natural ventilation openings (Fig. 2 ) and using the mechanical
ventilation device/ flue or electric fan ( Fig. 3 and 4 ). Intensive or prolonged use of the appliance may require additional
entilation such as by opening a window or an increased ventilation efficiency obtained by increasing the power of the
echanical ventilators if it is present.
CLEANING OF THE APPLIANCE
Before carrying out any cleaning operation disconnect the appliance from the electric mains and turn off the main tap which
supplies the appliance with gas.
Cleaning the worktop:
Periodically the burner heads, enamelled steel grills, enamelled lids and flame dividers must be cleaned with
warm soapy water, rinsed and dried well.
Any liquid which overflows from the pan must always be removed with a cloth.
If opening or closing any tap is difficult do not force it but ask for an urgent check from the technical assistant.
Cleaning of the enamelled parts:
To maintain the features of the enamelled parts they must be cleaned frequently with soapy water.
Never use abrasive powders. Avoid leaving acid or alkaline substances on the enamelled parts (vinegar, lemon juice, salt, tomato juice
etc.) and washing the enamelled parts when they are still warm.
Cleaning of the stainless steel parts:
Clean the parts with soapy water and then dry them with a soft cloth. The shininess is
maintained by periodically cleaning with the special products normally available on the market. Never use abrasive powders.
Cleaning of the burner flame dividers:
as they are not fixed, the flame dividers can be cleaned by simply removing them and cleaning
with soapy water. After drying them well and checking that the holes are not blocked, put them back into their correct position.
