HOW TO USE THE COOKER
VENTILATION
All gas cooking appliances produce heat and
moisture in the rooms where they are
installed. Take care to ensure that the kitchen
is well ventilated; keep the ventilation
openings unobstructed or install an extractor
hood with fan.
In case of intensive or prolonged use,
additional ventilation may be required; open
a window, or increase the extractor fan power.

SAFETY DEVICE
Burners equipped with this device have the
advantage that they are protected if they
accidentally go out. If this occurs, the supply
of gas to the burner concerned is automati-
cally cut off, preventing the hazards deriving
from a leak of unburnt gas. The gas supply
must be cut off within no more than 60 sec-
onds for the oven and grill burners or 90 sec-
onds for the hob burners.
FOR COOKERS WITH ELECTRIC IGNI-
TION
All the above applies, except that the match
is no longer required; a spark is obtained by
pressing the button on the control panel once
or more, or by pressing the knob of the burner
to be ignited.
If electronic ignition is difficult with some
types of gas, set the knob on the low (small
flame) setting.
- For cookers with electric ignition of the
oven and grill burners, ensure the oven
door is completely open when these
burners are ignited;
- Do not operate the ignition device for more
than 10 seconds when igniting the oven and
grill burners. If the burner has not lit after
these 10 seconds, stop using the device,
leave the door open and wait one minute
before trying again to ignite the burner. If
the ignition device malfunctions again, light
