is reached automatically and kept constant. This setting
is recommended for finishing the cooking of foods (placed
in pans) that are well done on the outside but still not done
inside or for desserts covered with fruit or jam which require
a light browning on top. Note that this function does not
permit reaching the maximum (250°C) temperature inside
for cooking foods always on this oven setting unless the
foods are cakes which only require temperatures below
or equal to 180°C.
Electronic Ignition for the Gas Hob
Some of the models are provided with instant electronic lighting
of the hob gas burners;these models are identified by the pres-
ence of a lighting device (see detail J). This device operates
when a slight pressure is applied to the “T” button marked with
1 symbol. To light a specific burner just press the button la-
belled “T” while pushing the corresponding knob all the way in
and turning it counter-clockwise until it lights. For immediate
lighting, first press the button and then turn the knob.
Important: Should the burner flames accidentally go out,
turn off the control knob and wait at least 1 minute before
trying to relight.
3.The grill
- Knob “L” setting: F
- Knob “M” setting: Max
Notice: The first time you use your appliance, we recom-
mend that you set the thermostat to the highest setting
and leave the oven on for about half an hour with nothing
in it, with the oven door shut. Then, open the oven door
and let the room air.The odour that is often detected dur-
ing this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances
used to protect the oven during storage and until it is in-
stalled.
The oven light turns on and so does the infra-red ray grill,
and the motor starts turning the spit. The rather high and
direct temperature of the grill permits browning the outside
of meats immediately thus keeping in the juices and
assuring tenderness.
4.The double grill
- Knob “L” setting: d
- Knob “M” setting: Max
Attention: Only use the bottom shelf of the oven when using
the rotisserie to cook (where present). For all other types of
cooking, never use the bottom shelf and never place anything
on the bottom of the oven when it is in operation because
this could damage the enamel.Always place your cookware
(dishes, aluminium foil, etc. etc.) on the grate provided with
the appliance inserted especially along the oven guides.
The oven light turns on and so does the double heating
element of the grill and the motor starts turning the spit.
This grill is larger than the average and has a completely
new design: cooking performance is increased 50%.The
double grill makes sure that even the corners are touched
by heat.
Important: when utilizing the grill, place the rack at the
lower levels (see cooking table). To catch grease or fat
and prevent smoke, place a dripping-pan at the bottom
rack level.
The oven knobs
With these two controls you can select the different
functions of the oven and choose the cooking temperatu-
re suitable for the food you are preparing. The different
cooking functions are set up by operating the two knobs:
Important: when using the grill, the oven door must be
left partly open by positioning the deflector “D” between
door and panel to prevent the cooker knobs from
overheating.

Cooking advice
The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allow
Cooking fish and meat
you to cook any type of food in the best possible way.With
time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile
cooking appliance and the following directions are only a
guideline which may be varied according to your own per-
sonal experience.
When cooking white meat, fowl and fish use low
temperatures. (150°C-175°C). When red meat must be
superficially well-cooked but succulent inside, it is
advisable to start with a high temperature (200-220°C)
for a short time, and then to reduce it at a later point.
Generally speaking, the more meat there is, the lower the
temperature and the longer the cooking time should
be.Place the meat in the centre of the grid and put a spill-
tray underneath to catch grease drips. Insert the grid so
that it is in the middle of the oven. If more heat from below
is required, use the 1° bottom shelf.
Baking cakes
The oven should always be warm before putting in cakes
wait till the end of preheating (about 10-15 min.). Cake-
baking temperatures are normally around 160°C/200°C.
Do not open the oven door during the baking process as
this could cause the cake to sink.In general:
To grill
Pastry is too dry
When using any of the grilling modes, it is recommended
that the thermostat knob be turned to the highest setting,
as it is the most efficient way to use the grill (which
utilizes infrared rays). If necessary, however, the
thermostat can be set to lower temperatures for grilling.
When using the grill functions, place the grid on the
lower racks (see cooking table) then, to prevent fat and
grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and
smoke from forming, place a dripping-pan on the 1st
oven rack from the bottom.
Increase the temperature by 10°C and reduce the
cooking time.
Pastry dropped
Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10°C.
Pastry is too dark on top
Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and
increase the cooking time.
Cooked well on the inside but sticky on the
outside
Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase
the cooking time.
The pastry sticks to the pan
Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of
flour.

Important: periodically check the wear of the gas hose
and substitute it if there are any defects;we recommended
changing it every year.

The taps may jam in time or they may become difficult to
turn. If so, the tap itself must be replaced.
N.B.:This operation must be performed by a technician
authorised by the manufacturer.
Removing the lid
