HOB: GENERAL NOTES ON SAFETY
When a gas cooker is being used it produces heat
and humidity in the room where it is installed.
For this reason the room must be well ventilated,
keeping the natural ventilation openings free and
switching on the mechanical aeration system
(suction hood or electric fan, see «VENTILATION
and LOCATION AND AERATION» paragraph )
If the cooker is used for a long time additional
aeration may be necessary, for instance,
opening a window, or a more effective aeration
by increasing the power of the mechanical
system if there is one.
LIGHTING THE BURNERS
Automatic electric ignition of burners
Push lightly the knob corresponding to the burner you
wish to use and turn counterclockwise to the “Full on“
position, then depress the control knob. Automatically
the ignition spark shoots. Matches can be used to light
the burners in a blackout.
Optimum use of the burners
To get the maximum yield with the minimum
consumption of gas it is handy to keep the following
points in mind:
• Once the burner has been lit, adjust the flame
according to your needs.
• Use an appropriately sized pan for each burner (see
the table below and fig. 4).
• When the content of the pan start to boil, turn the
knob down to “Reduced rate position” (small flame).
• Always put a lid on the pan.
• After using the appliance, ensure that all the controls
are in the closed or off position.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER
OVEN: GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Always grip the centre of the oven door when
•
opening. Do not practice excessive pressures on
the door when it is open.
Do not worry if condensation forms on the door and
•
on the internal walls of the oven during cooking.
This does not compromise its efficiency.
When opening the oven door, be very careful of
•
scalding vapours.
Use oven gloves to insert or remove containers
•
from the oven.
Use containers that will resist the temperatures
•
indicated on the thermostat knob.
For good results during cooking, we strongly
•
recommend not to cover the base of the oven or the
grill with aluminium foil or other materials.
When grilling always put a little water in the grill
•
pan. The water prevents the grease from burning
and from giving off bad smells and smoke. Add
more water during grilling to compensate for
evaporation.
After using the appliance ensure that all the controls
•
are in the off position.
