HOW TO USE THE GAS OVEN
General features
The gas oven is provided with two burners:
The Oven burner, mounted on the lower part of the oven
The Broil burner, mounted on the upper part of the oven
Using the oven for the first time
It is advised to follow these instructions:
- Insert shelves and broiler grid and tray
- Turn the oven on to the maximum temperature position (500˚F) to eliminate
possible traces of grease from the oven burner. The same operation should be
followed for the Broil burner (knob on position BROIL).
- Unplug the power cord, let the oven cool down, then clean the interior of the oven
with cloth soaked in water and detergent (neutral) then dry carefully.
OVEN BURNER
Performs the normal “oven cooking” function.
- The gas flow to the burner is regulated by a thermostat which maintains the desired
oven temperature.
- The control of the temperature is determined by a thermostatic probe positioned
inside the oven.
- The probe must be always kept in its housing, in a clean condition, as an incorrect
position or a dirty probe may cause improper control of the temperature.
