Instructions for the user

12. EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE

The oven may require extraordinary maintenance or replacement of parts subject to wear such as
gaskets, bulbs, etc. The following instructions describe how to carry out these minor maintenance
operations.
Before any intervention that requires access to live parts, disconnect the appliance from the power
supply.

12.1 Lubrication of gas oven taps and thermostat knob

Over time, the gas taps and the gas oven thermostat knob may become difficult to turn and get blocked.
Clean them internally and replace the lubrication grease.
This operation must be carried out by a specialised technician.
12.2 Oven fan failure
If there is a power cut, the oven fan function cannot be used. To check the operation of the fan, the user
needs to turn on the lower burner of the gas oven, set the selector knob to the fan position (
) and wait
for the oven's internal temperature to reach or exceed 120-130°C. If the fan does not start to operate,
this indicates a fault.
In case of a fault, do not attempt to repair it; instead, contact technical assistance.

12.3 Changing the light bulb

Remove bulb protector A by turning it anticlockwise and replace bulb B with a similar one (25 W). Re-fit
bulb protector A.
Use oven bulbs only (T 300°C).
12.4 Removing the doors
Lift the levers B and take hold of the two sides of the door with
both hands near the hinges A.
Raise the door to an angle of about 45° and remove it. To
reassemble, fit the hinges A into their grooves, then lower the
door into place and release the levers B.

12.5 Removing the door seal

To permit thorough cleaning of the oven, the seal may be removed.
Before removing the seal, take off the door as described above. Once the
door has been taken off, lift the tabs at the corners as shown in the figure.
