COOKTOP USE Read the instructions before installing or using this appliance. 1. This appliance shall be installed in accordance with the regulations in force and only used in a well-ventilated space. 2. The use of a gas-cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood). 3.
COOKWARE MATCH PAN DIAMETER TO FLAME SIZE The flame should be the same size as the bottom of the pan or smaller. Do not use small pans with high flame settings as the flames can lick up the sides of the pan. Oversize pans that span two burners are placed front to rear, not side to side. USE BALANCED PANS Pans must sit level on the cooktop grate without rocking. Center the pan over the burner. USE A LID THAT FITS PROPERLY A well-fitting lid helps shorten the cooking time.

The heat rises naturally to bake food evenly.
FEATURES CONTROL Light The oven cavity light turns ON automatically, when the Bake or Broil function is selected, and remains on during operation. Conv (Convection) Fan During convection cooking, the fan provides hot air circulation throughout the oven. The movement of heated air around the food can help to speed up cooking by penetrating the cooler outer surfaces. Food cooks more evenly, browning and crisping outer surfaces while sealing moisture inside.
