GAS OVEN OPERATION
THERMOCOUPLE SAFETY VALVE
Bertazzoni gas ovens are equipped with a
thermocouple safety device and a thermostat to
set the proper cooking temperature.
The thermocouple opens the flow of gas to the
burner only when hot. Should the flame go off,
the thermocouple will immediately close the gas
flow to the burner eliminating any risk to your
home.
For faster activation of the thermocouple, always
light the burners on maximum power. This will
allow the thermocouple to reach the optimum
temperature in the fastest time.
ATTENTION!
When using the oven for the first time it should
be operated for 15‐30 minutes at a temperature
of about 500°F/260°C without cooking anything
inside in order to eliminate any moisture and
odours from the internal insulation.
ELECTRIC IGNITION
WARNING!
Always keep the oven door open when lighting
the oven.
Do not operate ignition device for more than 15
seconds. If after that period the burner has not
been lit, open the oven door and wait 60
seconds before trying to light the oven again.
With the oven door partially open, turn the
control knob to the maximum temperature
setting (
position).
Press the control knob to start the gas flow and
the ignition spark.
Wait 10 seconds after the burner has been
completely lit before releasing the knob. This will
allow the thermocouple to reach its operating
temperature.
The gas oven operation is indicated by a blue
light on the left side of the control panel.
Before closing the oven door, visually check that
the flame is on through the portholes on the
oven compartment bottom panel. If no flame is
visible, repeat the procedure.
After lighting the burner and setting the desired
temperature, wait about 15 minutes before
putting food in to preheat the oven.
WARNING
If the oven burner flame is extinguished
accidentally during operation, turn the
temperature control knob counter‐clockwise to
the off position. Wait at least 60 seconds before
attempting to light the oven again.
