HOB: GENERAL NOTES ON SAFETY
• When using the burners or the plates, do not
leave the appliance unsupervised. Ensure
that children do not play with the appliance.
In particular, make sure that pan handles
are positioned correctly and supervise the
cooking of foods which use oils and fats, as
these are highly inammable.
• Do not use aerosols or sprays near the
appliance when it is in use.
• Even after use, the burners or the plates
remain hot for a long period; to avoid
burning, do not place hands or other objects
on them.
• After using the appliance, ensure that all the
controls are in the closed or o position.
When a gas cooker is being used it
produces heat and humidity in the room
where it is installed. For this reason the
room must be well ventilated, keeping
the natural ventilation openings free and
switching on the mechanical aeration
system (paragraph «VENTILATION and
LOCATION AND AERATION).
If the cooker
is used for a long time additional aeration
may be necessary, for instance, opening
a window, or a more eective aeration by
increasing the power of the mechanical
system if there is one.
LIGHTING THE BURNERS
Lighting of burners equipped with safety
thermocouples (g. 5, ref. TC)
When the burners are equipped with
safety thermocouples you have to turn
counterclockwise to the “Full on“ position, the
knob corresponding to the burner you wish
to use, then press the knob and repeat the
operations described previously. Once lit, keep
the knob pressed for about 10 seconds.
USER’S INSTRUCTIONS

Optimum use of the burners
To get the maximum yield with the minimum
consumption of gas it is handy to keep the
following points in mind:
• Once the burner has been lit, adjust the
ame according to your needs.
• Use an appropriately sized pan for each
burner (see the table below and g. 3).
• When the content of the pan start to boil, turn
the knob down to “Reduced rate position”
(small ame).

OVEN: GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not leave the oven unsupervised during
use. Ensure that children do not play with the
appliance.
• Always grip the centre of the oven door when
opening. Do not practice excessive pressures
on the door when it is open.
• Do not worry if condensation forms on the
door and on the internal walls of the oven
during cooking. This does not compromise
its eciency.
• When opening the oven door, be very careful
of scalding vapours.
• The appliance becomes very hot during use.
Do not touch the heating elements inside
the oven. Wear oven gloves when placing or
removing pans from the oven.
• When inserting or removing food from
the oven, check that excess juices do not
overow onto the oven base (oils and fats are
highly inammable when overheated).
• Use containers that will resist the
temperatures indicated on the thermostat
knob.
• For good results during cooking, we strongly
recommend not to cover the base of the
oven or the grill with aluminium foil or other
materials.
