Advice when using 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 which
have a lid and a flat base are used. They should
also be suited to the size of the burner.

Auxiliary (A)
To identify the type of burner, please refer to the
diagrams contained in the paragraph "Burner and
nozzle specifications."
For models equipped with a reducer grid, the latter
must be used only for the auxiliary burner, when
pans with a diameter of less than 12 cm are used.
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.
