Instructions for the user 5. USING THE RANGETOP FIRE HAZARD - Do not allow the burner flame to extend beyond the edge of the pan. - Turn off all controls when the range is not in use. WARNING NOTE: Check that the burner heads, burner caps and grates are correctly positioned. Before lighting the rangetop burners, check that each burner head is correctly positioned with its respective burner cap.
Instructions for the user 5.2 Practical advice on using the rangetop burners NOTE: Do not obstruct the flow of heat and ventilation around the edges of the grate. For more efficient use of the burners and lower gas consumption, use covered cookware that is proportional in size to the burner to prevent the flame from extending beyond the sides (see paragraph “5.3 Cookware diameter"). When water begins to boil, lower the flame so that it does not boil over.
Instructions for the user 5.4 Cookware NOTE: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface or burner. Ideally, cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, a tight-fitting lid and medium-to-heavy thickness. Rough cookware finishes may scratch the rangetop. Aluminum and copper may be used in cookware as a core material or base. However, when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the rangetop or grates.
Instructions for the user 6. USING THE OVEN 6.1 General Instructions NOTE: Before using the oven for the first time, pre-heat it to the maximum temperature (530°F), and operate long enough to burn away any oily residue remaining from the manufacturing process that could give the food a bad taste.
Instructions for the user 6.2 Convection cooking To use convection, light the oven burner using the oven ignition knob and then turn the oven function selector to the position indicated by a . The convection system activates when the selected temperature is reached. WARNING: Do not use the defrost function (indicated by the symbol) for convection cooking.

Instructions for the user 7. SUGGESTIONS FOR COOKING WARNING BURN HAZARD Keep the oven door closed during cooking. WARNING Do not line the bottom of the oven with aluminum or tin foil or place pans or oven trays on this surface as this may damage the enamel oven lining. If you wish to use waxed paper in the oven, position it so that it does not interfere with the circulation of hot air inside the oven.
Instructions for the user 7.2 Convection cooking FUNCTION SELECTOR CONTROL KNOB FROM LOW TO MAX Convection can be used to cook food simultaneously on several rack positions, even when different types of food (fish, meat etc.) are used, without mixing tastes and aromas. Air circulation in the oven ensures a uniform distribution of heat. Pre-heating is not necessary. NOTE: Simultaneous cooking of multiple foods is possible as long as the cooking temperature required for the different foods is the same.
Instructions for the user 7.4 Defrosting FUNCTION SELECTOR CONTROL KNOB IN POSITION 0 The flow of air generated by the fan ensures rapid defrosting. The air circulating inside the oven is at room temperature. NOTE: The advantage of defrosting at room temperature is that it does not alter the taste or appearance of the food.

CLEANING STAINLESS STEEL This brochure provides information and practical tips on how to clean stainless steel surfaces, considering the three main types of soiling. The appropriate cleaning method and materials are specified for each type. Clean utensils immediately after use to preserve the original shine of the steel surface. HOW TO PREVENT CAUSING DAMAGE TO STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES Always clean the surface with – never against – the grain of the finish when using creams and detergents.
REGULAR GRIME Example: - Stains, fingerprints, dullness caused by daily use of the utensil. WHAT TO USE - For light stains: regular detergents used to clean windows, mirrors and polished surfaces in general. - For stubborn stains: special steel cleaning products. METHOD 1 2 4 Spray the product directly on the stain, or apply it with a clean cotton rag or kitchen paper. Remove the product with dry kitchen paper, then wipe with a damp chamois.
OXIDISED GRIME Example: - Yellowing of the steel surface: on kitchen steel burners; bottom of oven. Oxidation is a phenomenon common to all metals (such as aluminium, iron, gold and silver) and is perfectly normal. At fairly high working temperatures, the surface of the stainless steel used for the manufacture of cooking appliances also oxidises, causing the phenomenon known as "blueing".
BAKED-ON GRIME Example - Residues that have been baked on to the surface. WHAT TO USE - Specific detergents for cleaning steel and other metals able to soften and remove baked-on grime. (Read the product label carefully to check that the product is appropriate for the intended purpose).
