Surface Operation Surface Cooking Tips Your range is equipped with a variety of different sized surface burners. Below is a guide for which burners work best for certain cooking applications: Burner Use front left and front right 18.000 BTU Quick water boiling Deep-fat frying in large utensil Melting small quantities Steaming rice Simmering sauces Melting large quantities Low-temperature frying (eggs, etc.
Burners Operation Lighting Burners All burners are ignited by electric ignition. There are no open-flame, “standing” pilots. Work-top Burners To light the surface burners, push and turn the appropriate control knob anticlockwise to maximum flow position . This control is both a gas valve and an electric switch. When gas is permitted to flow to the burners, the electric igniters start sparking. On all surface igniters you should hear a “clicking” sound.
Electric griddle Griddle/Simmer Plate (on applicable models) The optional 1150W griddle is constructed of machined steel with a blanchard finish and is uniquely designed to offer excellent cooking performance as well as easy clean up. The griddle is equipped with an electronic thermostat to maintain an even temperature across the griddle once the desired temperature has been set. The griddle has a power “ON” indicator light which glows when the griddle thermostat has been turned on.
Induction 9 power levels - max 2,100 W Turbo boost 3,700 W (10 mins) 9 power levels - max 2,100 W Turbo boost 3,700 W (10 mins) Induction worktop introduction 2 couples of octagonal inductors 220x184mm (left front and rear + right front and rear) Max available power of 3,700 W (16 Amp) one each side: TOTAL 7400W on 2 phases (16+16 amp) – The electronic board manages the available power on each side automatically, giving priority to the last input.
Using your induction worktop Control dials Each cooking zone is activated by a separate control dial positioned on the control panel. The functions are arranged on the actual dial itself.If a cooking zone is not turned off (‘0’ position) the electronic system automatically switches it off after a pre-set time ranging from 90 minutes to 6 hours, depending on the power setting. Power level Turn the dial clockwise to set the desired power level between 1 (minimum) and 9 (maximum).
Using your induction worktop Child Lock The child lock function can be enabled by turning the first two knobs from the left simultaneously into the left overwind position “ACC”. They need to be hold in that position for a least 2s. The activation will be displayed on all 7 segment displays. If the knobs are not hold in the OWL position for long enough the CL will not be enabled / displayed.
Choosing the right cookware Important! • Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for the induction symbol on the packaging or the bottom of the pan. • You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out a magnet test. Move a magnet towards the base of the pan. If it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction. • If you do not have a magnet: 1. Put some water in the pan you want to check. 2. Place a suitable pan on the cooking zone you wish to use.
Using your induction worktop special features Accelerated Heat-up feature This feature is available on all the cooking zones. Turn the control dial anti-clockwise to the ‘A’ setting and then release the dial (after the ‘beep’); the symbol lights up on the corresponding cooking zone display. Within 5 seconds turn the dial to the desired power level (between 1 and 9); once a setting has been selected, and the chosen power level will flash in alternation on the control panel display.
Using your induction worktop special features Bridge Bridge function : rectangular zone, controlled by one knob 9 power levels - 3,700W Bridge function : rectangular zone, controlled by one knob 9 power levels - 3,700W Two cooking zones bridged behave like one cooking zone and can also be controlled like only one. One of the two cooking zones (the rear) is the “slave cooking zone” the other (front ) is the “master cooking zone”.
Using your induction worktop special features Warming Melting function keeps the temperature at the bottom of the pot to approx 70°C – 155°F. Tolerance +/- 5°C – 40°F. Simmering Melting function keeps the temperature at the bottom of the pot to approx 95°C – 200°F. Tolerance +/- 5°C – 40°F.
Oven Functions and Setting Main Oven BAKE (Natural Airflow Bake) Use this setting for baking, roasting, and casseroles. CONVECTION BAKE Use this setting to bake and roast foods at the same time with minimal taste transfer. BROIL Use this setting for broiling dark meats at 1” thickness or less where rare or medium doneness is desired. DEFROST Use this function to defrost foods. Auxiliary Oven BAKE (Natural Airflow Bake) Use this setting for baking, roasting, and casseroles.
Ovens Features Oven Lights: Main oven (x2) Auxiliary Oven (x2) 1 Broiler 2 3 4 5 6 Double fan Bake burner Rack Positions 48’’ ranges The ovens hawe six rack positions; the main one is equipped with three racks and one enamelled tray, the auxiliary with one rack. Both ovens have six rack positions. Position 6 is the farthest from the oven bottom. Position 1 is the closest to the oven bottom. The racks can be easily removed and arranged at various levels.
Using the Ovens Oven Preheat The oven temperature can reach a temperature of aprox 400°F in 12 minutes in static function. Please consider this during the pre-heat process of the oven. Conventional vs Convection Cooking Because of variations in food density, surface texture and consistency, some foods may be prepared more successfully using the conventional bake setting. For this reason, conventional baking is recommended when preparing baked goods such as custard.
Baking BAKE (Natural Airflow Bake) Full power heat is radiated from the bake burner in the bottom of the oven cavity and is circulated with natural airflow. This function is recommended for single rack baking. Many cook books contain recipes to be cooked in the conventional manner. Conventional baking is suitable for dishes that require a high temperature. Use this setting for baking and casseroles. BAKE (Main oven) BAKE (Auxiliary oven) To Use BAKE Function 1.

Baking Solving Baking Problems Baking problems can occur for many reasons. Check the chart below for the causes and remedies for the most common problems. It is important to remember that the temperature setting and cooking times you are accustomed to using with your previous oven may vary slightly from those required with this oven. If you find this to be true, it is necessary for you to adjust your recipes and cooking times accordingly.
Convection Bake CONVECTION BAKE Heat is radiated from the bake burner in the bottom of the oven cavity. The heated air is circulated by the fans in the rear of the oven providing a more even heat distribution. Multiple rack use is possible for the largest baking job. When roasting, cool air is quickly replaced searing meats on the outside and retaining more juices and natural flavor on the inside with less shrinkage.
Defrost Air is circulated by motorized fan in the rear of the oven. The fan accelerates natural defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to remain in the oven for more than two hours. 1. Place the frozen food on a baking sheet. 2. Turn the selector to and set the temperature to “OFF”. WARNING To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to remain in the oven for more than two hours.
Broiling BROIL Heat radiates from the broiler located at the top of the oven cavity. The distance between the foods and the broil elements determines broiling speed. For “fast” broiling, foodmay be as close as 2 inches (5 cm) to the broil element.“Fast” broiling is best for meatswhere rare to medium donenessis desired. Use this setting for broiling small and average cuts of meat. Broiling Instructions Broiling is a dry-heat cooking method using direct or radiant heat.
