Turning the knob so that the symbols printed on itself point to the symbol printed on the control panel achieves the following functions: Knob Function SEMI-RAPID burners position closed valve maximum rate minimum rate Fig. 2.1 The maximum aperture position permits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas the minimum aperture position allows simmer warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of liquids.
- Page 9 LIGHTING GAS BURNERS FITTED WITH FLAME FAILURE SAFETY DEVICE (Semi-rapid burners) In order to light the burner, you must: 1. Push and turn the knob in an anti-clockwise direction up to the position (ma- ximum rate), push in and hold the knob until the flame has been lit (fig. 2.2). The sparks produced by the lighter situated inside the relative burner will light the flame. In the event that the local gas supply conditions makes it difficult to light the burner in position (maximum rate), try again with the knob in position (minimum rate). 2. Wait for about ten seconds after the gas burner has been lit before letting go the knob (safety device activation delay). 3. Adjust the gas valve to the desired position. If there is no mains electrical supply, the burners can be used with no restriction. In that case, in order to light the burner, you must: 1. Bring a lighted match close to the burner (as per side figure) and keep it in place until the burner has been ignited. 2. Push and turn the knob in an anti-clockwise direction up to the position (ma- ximum rate), push in and hold the knob until the flame has been lit (fig. 2.2). In the event that the local gas supply conditions makes it difficult to light the burner in position (maximum rate), try again with the knob in position (minimum rate). 3. Wait for about ten seconds after the gas burner has been lit before letting go the knob (safety device activation delay). 4. Adjust the gas valve to the desired position. If the burner flame should go out for some reason, the safety valve will automatically stop the gas flow. To re-light the burner, return the knob to the closed position, wait for at least 1 minute and then repeat the lighting procedure.
- Page 10 GAS BURNERS (Dual) The Dual Burner is a very flexible burner which allows different regulations and optimal cooking. It is composed by one inner and one outer crown; the flame of the inner crown can be regulated separately from the flames of the outer crown. The Dual Burner can be used: • As a high-power burner (all flames produced simultaneously by inner and outer crown) which can be adjusted from the maximum ( ) to the minimum ( position. Intermediate operating adjustments can be achieved by positioning the indicator between the maximum and minimum opening positions, and never between the maximum opening and position.

OVEN BURNER It carries out normal “oven cooking”. The gas flow to the burner is regulated by a thermostat which allow to maintain the oven temperature constant. The control of the temperature is assured by a thermostatic probe positioned inside the oven. The probe must be always kept in its housing, in a clean condition, as an incorrect posi- tion or encrustment may cause an alteration in the control of the temperature. OVEN THERMOSTAT The numbers printed on the control knob (fig. 3.1) indicate the increasing oven tempera- ture value (see temperature table near the control knob). Left column of the temperature table refers to oven burner used in combination with the fan motor while right column refers to oven burner used in the normal convection mode Fig. 3.1 (without fan motor). To regulate the temperature, set the chosen number onto the control panel indicator. The position “BROIL” serves only to turn on the broil burner.

The thermostat allows the automatic control of the temperature. The gas delivery to the oven burner is controlled by a two way thermostatic tap (oven and broil burners) with flame-failure device. To light the oven burner operate as follows: 1. Open the oven door to its full extent. WARNING: Risk of explosion! The oven door must be open during this ope- ration. 2. Press the oven control knob right down and, keeping it pressed, turn counter- Fig. 3.3 clockwise (fig. 3.3) to max position “8”. 3. Release the knob and check the oven burner has lit; if not, turn the knob clockwise back to “OFF” and repeat the procedure from step 2. 4. Once the oven burner has lit, close the oven door slowly and adjust the burner ac- cording to the power required. If the flame extinguishes for any reason, the safety valve will automatically shut off the gas supply to the burner. To re-light the burner, first turn the oven control knob to position “OFF”, wait for at least 1 minute and then repeat the lighting procedure.
- Page 16 CONVECTION BAKING WITH VENTILATION (OVEN BURNER WITH FAN MOTOR) After lighting the oven burner switch on the fan motor by turning the LIGHT & FAN control knob (fig. 3.2) on “LIGHT & FAN” position. Before introducing the food, preheat the oven to the desired temperature. For a correct preheating operation, it is advisable to remove the tray from the oven and introduce it together with the food, when the oven has reached the desired temperature. Check the cooking time and turn off the oven 5 minutes before the theoretical time to recuperate the stored heat. It is possible to cook various different foods at the same time. Fish, cakes and meat can be cooked together without the smells and flavours mixing. The only precautions required are the following: ■ The cooking temperatures must be as close as possible with a maximum difference of 70-80 °F (20-25 °C) between the different foods. ■ Different dishes must be placed in the oven at different times according to the coo- king time required for each one. This type of cooking obviously provides a conside- rable saving on time and energy. Recommended for: For foods of large volume and quantity which require the same internal and external degree of cooking; for ex: rolled roasts, turkey, legs, cakes, etc. DEFROSTING FROZEN FOODS (ONLY FAN MOTOR) With the oven burner control knob in “OFF” position turn the LIGHT & FAN control knob (fig. 3.2) on “LIGHT &...
