Congratulations on your choice. Thank you for purchasing one of our

appliances. This practical, modern and functional appliance is manufactured

using materials of the highest quality which are subject to strict Quality

Control checks throughout the entire manufacturing process. The appliance

is meticulously tested to ensure that it meets your demands and produces

perfect cooking results.

Do not remove the appliance from its protective packaging until it is installed

Please read these instructions carefully before proceeding to install and use

the appliance. The information contained in these instructions is essential for

the correct operation of the appliance and, more importantly, for your safety.

The packaging of your appliance has been manufactured using only the

materials which are strictly necessary to guarantee efficient protection

during transport. These materials are 100% recyclable, thus reducing the

environmental impact. You can also contribute to caring for the environment,

by following the advice below:

- dispose of the packaging in the appropriate recycling bin,

- before you get rid of an old appliance, make sure you disable it. Contact

your local authority to find out the address of your nearest recycling centre

to dispose of your appliance,

- do not pour used oil down the sink. Collect it in a sealed container and

take it to an appropriate collection point or, failing that, place it in the rubbish

bin (it will end up in a controlled dump; this is probably not the best option,

but it will avoid contaminating ground water).

In the unlikely event that the appliance should arrive damaged or not meet

Food can be prepared in various ways in a wok: it can

be stewed, stir fried, cooked on a low heat, pan-fried,

or steamed. It could be said that woks serve as both

as a saucepan and a frying pan and, owing to their

shape and size, they can be used to cook quite large

When cooking with a wok, heat is diffused more

uniformly and gently; the intense heat which

accumulates means that food takes less time to
