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), press the ignition button, marked with the
symbol , then hold the BURNER knob down and turn it
in an anticlockwise direction, towards the maximum 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.

Practical advice on using the burners Practical advice on using the burners Practical advice on using the burners Practical advice on using the burners 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:
Burner ř Cookware diameter (cm)
Fast (R)
Semi Fast (S)
Auxiliary (A)
To identify the type of burner, please refer to the diagrams contained in
the "Burner and nozzle specifications".
Using the oven Using the oven 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.
! Before operating the product, remove all plastic film from the sides of
the appliance.
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will avoid
the enamel coating being damaged.
