The different functions and uses of the oven
The various functions included in the cooker are selected
by operating the control devices located on the cooker
control panel.
Control Knobs for the Gas Burners on the Hob
The position of the gas burner controlled by each one of
the knobs is shown by a symbol of a solid ring:•. To light
one of the burners, hold a lighted match or lighter near
the burner. Press down and turn the corresponding knob
in the counter-clockwise direction to the maximum
setting. Each burner can be operated at its maximum,
minimum or intermediate power. Shown on the knob are
the different symbols for off • (the knob is on this setting
when the symbol lines up with the reference mark on the
control panel), for maximum and minimum .
To obtain these settings, turn the knob counter-clockwise
with respect to the off position. To turn off the burner, turn
the knob clockwise until it stops (corresponding again with
the • symbol).
Electronic Lighting of the Hob Burners (only a few
models)
Some models are equipped with instant electronic light-
ing of the gas burners located on the hob, which can be
identified by the presence of an igniter device (see detail
C). This device is activated by lighting pressing on the “L”
button, identified by the symbol. To turn on a burner,
simply press the “L” button and then press while, at the
same time, pressing in and turning the control knob for
the burner in the anticlockwise direction until the burner
lights. To light the burner immediately, it is recom-
mended that the button be pressed first and then the
knob turned.
Caution: If the burner accidentally goes out, turn off
the burner using the knob and wait at least one minute
before relighting.
Models with Flame Failure Device (only a few models)
These models are identified by the presence of a flame
detection device (see detail H).
Important: Since the top burners are equipped with a
safety device, after lighting the burner keep the knob
pressed in for about 6 seconds to allow the gas to pass
until the safety thermocouple is heated.
Gas Cut Off (only a few models)
This cooker has a safety cut out feature which switches
off the burners when you close the cover. This device is
provided as a safety feature in case the cover is lowered
with the burners on. Always turn off the gas and allow the
burners to cool before closing the cover. Failure to follow
these instructions may cause the glass cover to shatter.
Keep the cover open when using the oven.
Attention: before using the oven and grill for the first time,
turn the oven on for approximately one half hour. Make
sure that the oven is empty, the thermostat on high, the
door open, and the room properly ventilated. The odor
which can be detected at times is due to the evaporation
off the substances used to protect the oven and the grill
during the period between the time of production and
installation of the appliance.
Attention: Only use the bottom shelf of the oven when
using the rotisserie to cook (where present). For all other
types of cooking, never use the bottom shelf and never
place anything on the bottom of the oven when it is in
operation because this could damage the enamel. Always
place your cookware (dishes, aluminium foil, etc. etc.) on
the grate provided with the appliance inserted especially
along the oven guides.
The oven and grill knob (M)
This knob is used to select the different functions of the
oven and choose the right cooking temperature for the
food to be prepared in the oven among the temperatures
shown on the knob (from Min to Max).
To light the oven burner, hold a lighted match or lighter
near hole “F” and turn the oven knob counter anti clockwise
up to the Max position.

The models equipped with a safety device on oven
burner, the knob must be kept pressed in for about 6
seconds to activate the flame failure device. (For the
models provided with electronic lighting see the rela-
tive paragraph).
The cooking temperature is selected by matching the
desired temperature with the permanent reference on the
panel; the complete range of temperatures is shown below:
Min • 150 • 180 • 220 Max

, after holding a lighted match or a lighter close to
the grill burner.

sausages, roast-beef, etc.; for grill cooking, place a drip-
pan under the grill to catch the grease.
