How to use the electronic clock The electronic programmer is a device with the following functions: – 24 hours clock with illuminated display – Timing of oven cooking with automatic switch-off (max. 99 minutes). Electronic clock Upon immediate connection of the oven or after a mains failure, three zeros will flash on the programmer panel. To set the clock it is necessary to push the button and then, within 7 seconds, the or button until you have set the correct time.
How to use the hob burners Hob burners Each hob burner is controlled by a separate gas tap operated by a control knob (fig. 5) which has 3 positions marked on the control panel, these are: – Symbol ● : tap closed (burner off) – Symbol : High (maximum) – Symbol : Low (minimum) Push in and turn the knob anti-clockwise to the selected position. Low Fig. 5 High To turn the burner off, fully rotate the knob clockwise to the off position: ●.
Choice of burner The burner must be choosen according to the diameter of the pans and energy required. Burners Pan diameter Auxiliary 12 ÷ 14 cm Semi-rapid 16 ÷ 24 cm Rapid 24 ÷ 24 cm Triple-ring 26 ÷ 28 cm Fig. 6 do not use pans with concave or convexe bases Saucepans with handles which are excessively heavy, in relationship to the weight of the pan, are safer as they are less likely to tip. Pans which are positioned centrally on burners are more stable than those which are offset.
Correct use of triple-ring burner The flat-bottomed pans are to be placed directly onto the pan-support. To use the WOK you need to place the proper stand in order to avoid any faulty operation of the triple-ring burner (Fig. 8a - 8b). WRONG Fig. 8a 10 CORRECT Fig.
How to use the Multifunction oven Operating principles Heating and cooking in the MULTI-FUNCTION oven are obtained in the following ways: a. by normal convection The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements. b. by forced convection A fan sucks in the air contained in the oven muffle, which sends it through the circular heating element and then sends it back through the muffle.
OVEN LIGHT By setting the knob to this position, only the oven light comes on (15 W). It remains on in all the cooking modes. TRADITIONAL CONVECTION COOKING The upper and lower heating elements come on. The heat is dispersed by natural convection and the temperature must be set to between 50° and 225°C via the thermostat knob. The oven must be preheated before cooking. Recommended for: Food that requires the same degree of cooking both inside and out, for example roasts, spare pork ribs, meringues etc.
HOT AIR COOKING The circular element and fan come on. The heat is dispersed by forced convection and the temperature can be regulated to between 50° and 225°C via the thermostat knob. The oven does not require preheating. Recommended for: Food which has to be well-cooked outside and soft or rosy inside, for example lasagne, lamb, roast beef, whole fish etc. VENTILATED GRILL COOKING The infrared grill element and the fan come on.
COOKING ADVICE STERILIZATION Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in the following way: a. Set the switch to position . b. Set the thermostat knob to position 185 °C and preheat the oven. c. Fill the dripping pan with hot water. d. Set the jars onto the dripping pan making sure they do not touch each other and the door and set the thermostat knob to position 135 °C.
GRILLING AND “AU GRATIN” Grilling may be done without the roasting jack on position of the switch, because the hot air completely envelops the food that is to be cooked. Set the thermostat to position 175 °C and after having preheated the oven, simply place the food on the rack. Close the door and let the oven operate with the thermostat on position 175 °C, until grilling is done. Adding a few dabs of butter before the end of the cooking time gives the golden “au gratin” effect.
Important notes Installation, and any demonstration, information or adjustments are not included in the warranty. The cooker must be installed by a qualified person in accordance with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) (Amendment) Regulations 1990 and the relevant building/l.E.E Regulations. Failure to install the appliance correctly could invalidate any manufacturers warranty and lead to prosecution under the above quoted regulation. In the UK C.O.R.G.
Do’s and do not’s Do’s and do not’s • Do always grill with the oven door closed. • Do read the user instructions carefully before using the cooker for first time. • Do allow the oven to heat for one and a half hours, before using for the first time, in order to expel any smell from the new oven insulation, without the introduction of food. • Do clean your oven regularly. • Do remove spills as soon as they occur. • Do always use oven gloves when removing food shelves and trays from the oven.
Care and maintenance Important: As a safety measure, before you start cleaning the cooker be sure to disconnect it from the mains supply. Do not use a steam cleaner because the moisture can get into the appliance thus make it unsafe. Cleaning the hob Spillage on the hob can usually be removed by a damp soapy cloth. More obstinate stains can be removed by rubbing gently with a soapy scouring pad or mild household cleaner.
Burners They can be removed and washed only with soapy water. Detergents can be used but must not be abrasive or corrosive. Do not use abrasive sponges or pads. Do not put in dishwasher. After each cleaning, make sure that the burnercaps, as well as the burners, have been well wiped off and CORRECTLY POSITIONED. It is essential to check that the burner flame distributor F and the cap C has been correctly positioned (see fig. 9) - failure to do so can cause serious problems.
Removal of the inner glass door panel – The inner glass door panel can easily be removed for cleaning by unscrewing the four screws (fig. 12). – When re-assembly ensure that the inner glass is correctly positioned and do not over tighten the screws. Fig. 12 Storage compartment – The storage compartment is accessible through the pivoting panel. Fig. 13 Changing the oven light 1. Disconnect the electrical power supply (for example, by switching off the main power switch). 2. Unscrew the light cover 3.
Assembling and removing the side racks Hang up the wires racks on the oven walls (fig. 14) Slide the required grid or tray into the guides (fig. 15). Fig. 14 Fig. 15 Oven tray The oven tray must be correctly placed on the wire shelf (fig. 16) then inserted into the side runners (fig. 17). Fig. 16 Fig.
Removing the oven door Fig. 18a Please operate as follows: ● ● ● ● Open the door completely. The swivel retainers of the rh and lh hinges (fig. 18a) are hooked onto the metal bar above them (fig. 18b). Lift the oven door slightly. The noch on the bottom of the hinge will disengage (fig. 18c). Now pull the oven door forwards off the appliance. Release both hinge sections from the slots (fig. 18d). Fig.
FOR THE INSTALLER Location This cookers has class “2/1” overheating protection so that it can be installed next to a cabinet. If the cooker is installed adjacent to furniture which is higher than the gas hob cooktop, a gap of at least 50 mm must be left between the side of the cooker and the furniture. The furniture walls adjacent to the cooker must be made of material resistant to heat.
Fitting the adjustable feet The adjustable feet must be fitted to the base of the cooker before use. Rest the rear of the cooker an a piece of the polystyrene packaging exposing the base for the fitting of the feet. Fig. 20 WARNING When raising cooker to upright position always ensure two people carry out this manoeuvre to prevent damage to the adjustable feet (fig. 21). WARNING Be carefull: do not lift the cooker by the door handle when raising to the upright position (fig. 22). Fig. 21 Fig.
