Using the hob
Lighting the burners
For each BURNER knob there is a complete ring
showing the strength of the flame for the relevant
burner.
To light one of the burners on the hob:
1. Bring a flame or gas lighter close to the burner.
2. Press the BURNER knob and turn it in an
anticlockwise direction so that it is pointing to the
maximum flame setting
E
.
3. Adjust the intensity of the flame to the desired
level by turning the BURNER knob in an
anticlockwise direction. This may be the minimum
setting
C
, the maximum setting
E
or any position in
between the two.
If the appliance is fitted
with an electronic lighting
device* (
see figure; C),
press the BURNER knob
and turn it in an
anticlockwise direction,
towards the minimum
flame setting, until the
burner is lit. The burner
may be extinguished when the knob is released. If this
occurs, repeat the operation, holding the knob down
for a longer period of time.
!
Since the hob burners are equipped with a safety
device (X), you must hold the control knob in for
about 3-7 seconds after the burner has been lighted
to allow the gas to pass until the safety
thermocouple has heated.
!
If the flame is accidentally extinguished, switch off
the burner and wait for at least 1 minute before
attempting to relight it.
To switch the burner off, turn the knob until it
reaches the stop position
•.
Practical advice on using the burners
For the burners to work in the most efficient way
possible and to save on the amount of gas
consumed, it is recommended that only pans that
have a lid and a flat base are used. They should also
be suited to the size of the burner.
Start-up and use
To identify the type of burner, please refer to the
diagrams contained in the “Burner and nozzle
specifications”.
!
On the models supplied with a reducer shelf,
remember that this should be used only for the
auxiliary burner when you use casserole dishes with
a diameter under 12 cm.
Using the oven
!
The first time you use your appliance, heat the
empty oven with its door closed at its maximum
temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the
room is well ventilated before switching the oven off
and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit
a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective
substances used during the manufacturing process
burning away.
!
Never put objects directly on the bottom of the
oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being
damaged. Only use position 1 in the oven when
cooking with the rotisserie spit.

Flame adjustment according to levels
the burner flame intensity can be adjusted with the
knob according to 6 power levels, from maximum
to minimum with 4 intermediate positions:
a click will indicate the change from one level to
another when turning the knob. The system
guarantees a more precise adjustment, allows
to replicate the flame intensity and to identify
easily the preferred level for different cooking
operations.
