COOK-TOP USE
USING
THE
GAS BURNERS
The following symbols are
found
on the control panel next to each
knob:
- Circle
gas off
- Large flame
maximum setting
- Small flame
minimum setting
The minimum position is at the end of the anti-clockwise rotation of
the knob.
Knob
positions must be
set
between max. and min.; never
set the knobs
between max. and off.
AUTOMATIC ELECTRIC IGNITION
To turn
a burner
on, press the knob corresponding to the selected
burner and turn it anticlockwise to the max position. Keeping the knob
pressed, the
burner will automatically
ignite.
In
the event of a power
failure, the burner can also be
lit
using a
match.
SAFETY VALVE
Follow the same procedure described above to ignite the burners.
In this case, however, once you have turned the knob to the open
setting, hold it pressed
down
for 10 seconds.
If for any reason the burner flame goes out, the safety valve
automatically shuts off the gas supply to the burner in question.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
• The diameter of the pan bottom should be the same as that of the
burner. The burner flame must never
exceed
the
pan’s
diameter.
• Use flat-bottomed pans only.
• Whenever possible, keep a lid on the pan while cooking.
This allows you cook using less
heat.
• Cook vegetables, potatoes, etc. with as little water as possible to
reduce cooking times.

USING
THE ELECTRIC OVEN
The first time the oven is used, it may give off
an
acrid smell, caused
by the first heating of
insulating
panels
adhesive
surrounding the oven
(heat the oven at the maximum temperature for about 30-40
minutes with closed door).
It is
perfectly normal for the oven to smoke when first used;
wait for
the smoke to stop before
placing
food into the oven.
The oven is fitted with: a
grill
shelf for cooking food in oven dishes
or
for placing
directly on the
grill
shelf itself, a drip-tray for cooking
sweets, biscuits, pizzas, etc., or for collecting juices and fats from
food cooked directly on the
grill
shelf.
Note: The following tables
provide a
guide for cooking some of the
most
popular
dishes. The cooking times recommended in these tables
are approximate. After a few attemps, we are sure that you will be
able to adjust the times to get the results you want.
