I
•
Lightly press knob “I” and tur n it a few degrees
anticlockwise to release it.
•
Press down fully and turn it to “pilot ignition”; a click will
indicate sparking.
•
Keep knob “I” pressed and turn it to “pilot”, holding it in that
position for about 15-20 seconds to allow the gas to reach
the pilot burner (pilot ignition) and the thermocouple to heat.
•
With the pilot lit, turn knob “l” from “pilot” to “burner” to
light the latter.
• At this point, knob “L” can be used to select the required
temperature.
WARNING
: the knob must remain on “burner” position when
operating the oven. Do not operate the oven with this knob “I”
in any other position.
NB:
The appliance’s oven should only be operated with Knob
“I” turned to “burner” position.
2.1.1 ITERLOCK
The oven gas valve has an interlock device which prevents
immediate re-lighting (for about 40 seconds) of the oven
in the event it is accidentally turned off. This ensures the
flow of gas which has possibly accumulated inside the
oven, and better safety.
Turning off
•
Turn knob “I” clockwise to position “pilot”.
•
Then press the knob down and turn it to position “Off“.
Note
: if removing knob “L” for cleaning, always turn knob fully
clockwise to the lowest setting and replace the knob so
that the mark on the knob aligns with the lowest tempera-
ture marking. Failure to replace the knob correctly will
result in inaccurate oven temperature.
2.2. ELECTRIC MODELS
The heating elements are controlled by a 4-position selector
knob “D”, whereas the oven temperature is controlled by a
thermostat “E”.
Use the selector knob to choose the most suitable type
of heating, using the appropriate heating elements:
Off position
“appliance On” position
upper and lower heating elements
upper heating element
lower heating element

Switching on
Turn heating element control knob “D” to the required setting.
Lighting up of green indicator “A” signals that the power is
on.
Turn thermostat knob “E” to the required cooking temperatu-
re (between 100 and 300 °C). Lighting up of yellow indicator
“G” signals that the heating elements are on; it goes off when
the oven reaches the set temperature.
Switching off
Turn the control knobs to the off position “0”. Turn off the
electrical switch installed ahead of the appliance.
